Well... he was kind of spoiled, I'll grant you that.
He was earmarked for greatness even before he became a pro.
That's why Hagler's performance against him pissed me off so much.
He destroys Hearns and The Beast Mugabi...... and goes out with a whimper against Leonard.

Hagler overthought the fight too much and ended up confusing himself. He will be seething and livid inside with himself until the day he dies. That will hurt him.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
