The in-decline Hagler of the Mugabi fight would have out-slugged and beaten down Ayala over the course of rounds. The smooth boxing counter-punching Hagler of his prime would have methodically disassembled El Torito before sending him back to the drawing board....headache and all.
This is a weird thread. When Ayala got banged up he was still only considered a prospect. No one was talking about him as a serious threat to Hagler, Hearns and co. He was good but his career finished so early you just can't say what he could have done. He could easily have ended up a journey man. Besides, he was an nasty *******:rastaand **** him anyways Legion - Life is short, you're a long time dead.:yep
