Holmes and Hagler came from the same cloth. Two blue-collared fighters who had no Olympic gold medal and fought for peanuts on undercards early in their careers. Both champions for 7 years. And when they were defeated, they never accepted it.

In my opinion, Hagler and Holmes, were clearly beaten when they lost their titles. Close but clear.
