    It's been a while since I've watched it, but I remember Hagler besting Duran on the inside and remaining more composed while Duran seemed to fade, like if there were 5 more rounds Hagler would have ran away with it

    I don't agree with Duran should not have made it into deep water with Hagler, Bonavena made it into deep water with Ali, they had the style and the skill

    Maybe the way Duran dismantled Moore in his previous fight had something to do with it, in hindsight the way Hearns took out Duran showed that Hagler could have at least tried stepping on the gas a bit harder
