You are picking his fight third fight from the end of his career, which involved arguably the finest round in boxing history. Now granted I was a Motor City Cobra fan going in, but after 'The War' I could not be 'against' The Marvellous One.


And then you pick Hagler's finale...


It is the equivalent of saying "I saw the Spinks rematch and the Berbick fight; I never understood the fuss around Muhammad Ali"...
Hey, as said, I never discredited his win- just didn't like his boxing style. It was not exciting to me.... just wasn't... even in his win against Hearns, I loved the way Hearns hit and didn't like the way Hagler threw punches. Just didn't...

I also didn't like Roberto Duran's style either... he wasn't that good to watch for me.
