    And btw in real life he never beat up his brother, he beat his best friend Pete. Maybe instead as d of watching the movie you should read of the REAL LIFE AND career of LaMotta. And all boxing history. Also btw, at HIS best, Hagler-Leonard was not a stalker, he was a boxer~puncher who developments out. He was not a hunting puncher until the end of his career, when age forced him to change. The Hagler of Hearns and on was not Hagler at his greatest.

    Wow! Wrong. Look at the rankings for middle and lighthearted and during 1940-51, Haglers opponents can't compare. And really look at the records of Briscoe (who I saw live many times he was the epitome of a fighter. But, totally washed up by the Hagler-Leonard fight), Watt, Monroe and Cyclone when MMH beat them. Not top contenders. Then study Jake's record. No comparison. Prime Briscoe gives Hagler he'll and maybe beats him.
