There is a good article written on the fight which I will try and find but it was saying that Hart was mentored by Bernard Hopkins and he wanted to avenge that loss as a Philly fighter.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

The whole lead in was made to be Hart dedicating and getting revenge for fellow Philly Hopkins as he was knocked out by Smith in final fight. But even in his late year taunt and snipe mode Hopkins never fought that feeble. Harts a nice guy but that card reeks of glaucoma or a needed AA intervention. Hart was being moved and fighting like a guy trying not to get ko’d literally from the first bell. Maybe he snuck the 3rd and had some ok left hooks in 9th but in no way shape or form did he box effectively enough to win majority of rounds.
Hart tricked me. When I watched some of his fights a little early in his career, he didn’t look impressive whatsoever to me. He lost to Ramirez the first time which was no shocker but then made a pretty good fight out of it the second time around which was surprising. Then he demolished Barrera, who may have been a little shop worn at the time but not terrible. So I thought that maybe Hart was pretty good. This fight proved to me that I was right at the beginning.
Hart can’t last at light heavyweight and I doubt he can get back down to super middleweight

It’s an odd thing yeh, Hart had the look of a guy who knew he was off his weight range and not long for it. No doubt his stamina was there as he ran circles all night but his reaction to shots and body language looked feeble. Just a very odd approach going up and execution.
