What tells the story is that Hagler ended the fight with his belt, and Hearns ended it looking he had died standing up.
My bad on Hearns's weight in the first fight; I was indeed incorrect by one pound. That still doesn't explain away Leonard's hurting him badly as early as the 6th round, and it's nowhere near the factual error of calling two top-10 middleweights "unknowns."
