Hagler fought the wrong stance for the early rounds and gave the rounds away. That ultimately cost him the fight.
The only other time Hagler fought conservatively was against Duran.

I think his inability to adjust got to him. SRL saw that in the Mugabi fight and felt he could frustrate Hagler with last second flurries and shoe shining. SRL was correct.
