    I think they both took a lot of damage.

    Agreed Hagler was visibly diminished after his rumble with Mugabi,,,I believe it inspired Ray Leonard to come back.

    Oh, it did inspire Ray Leonard.
    He attended the Mugabi fight and was
    frequently shown in the audience
    as the fight progressed.
    By the end of the fight, I knew he'd make a comeback
    to fight Hagler.
    It was all over his face.

    How so?

    Schoolboy then dropped and decisioned Boza Edwards in a 12 round war to reverse the outcome from their first epic, getting him to his deserved PPV with the much bigger and stronger Mancini (Boom-Boom's final win), then goes 7-0 for the four year remainder of his career ending the career of Art Frias and contention of fine tall southpaw Rafael Solis.

    This is three years after Chacon-Limon IV, Mancini on commentary...:

    It could be the second Boza Edwards fight following up too,but after that he never looked as good as he was before.
