I don't really see the comparison of Hagler and Johnson, at least not with Hagler's usual style, but I suppose if he fights Jones like he did Hearns (which I said earlier might be the best game plan), then yeah, there's some similarities since Hagler will be up close on Jones and swarming.
Hagler's usual style was actually more stylish and polished than his showings with Hearns.

However when he adopted the swarming and aggressive mentality he near always got impressive results.
With Hearns the KO, with Mugabi the KO, with Minter the KO, with Leonard he won rounds he had been losing boxing.

Haglers chin and ability to corner his man or trap him on the ropes (Leonard is actually a good example,) would have pinned Roy and although Hagler would have been clipped he would have scored heavily.
Well yeah, Hagler was usually a boxer-puncher, so that's why I said I didn't really see the comparison with Glen Johnson.

With Mugabi, he was boxing well and jabbing Mugabi silly, and also tearing Mugabi up on the inside with body shots. Kenny Bayless said both of them had blood in their urine afterwards.

I think Hagler's best gameplan against Roy is the aggressive whirlwind who fought Hearns.
