The fight wasn't one-sided at all. The commentators (which included Ray Leonard punk a**) kind of made it seem that way. But it wasn't. The first was back and forth. But in the second Hearns boxed and moved pretty good. Hagler just landed the harder blows. But it was Hearns jabbing in the second that really opened up Haglers cut. And he was still throwing his right which by that time was already broken. The third was obviously the end. Hearns-Hagler to me will always be one of the greatest fight I ever saw
Hearns legs wern't there after 1st round, Hagler won 2nd round comfortably even though Hearns had his moment's. I think that cut helped Hagler in a way because he went out there knowing he had only 1 or 2 more rounds otherwise the fight would be stopped and he just demolished Hearns.
