    Hagler's big mistake was giving into all of SRL's demands before the fight. The size of the ring and the number of rounds. The biggest thing was the size of the ring, SRL had way to much room to run.

    I read somewhere that Hagler was tricked into demanding it over 12 rounds by SRL.

    SRL's team said they wanted it over 15 rounds and Haglers camp to be difficalt said straight away it had to be over 12 rounds which Ray wanted in the first place.

    Dont know if it is true but its a good story.

    interesting story. Not sure why Hagler's team would want 12 rounds instead of 15, and that is pretty bad doop if its true.

    Yeah I don't know about that, Haglar was one of the best conditioned fighters ever. By dropping the amount of rounds he was only making things harder for himself. Maybe he thought Leonard was much further gone & he'd be able to get him outta there early. Big mistake by Hagler if it's true!
