The first round of the fight with Hitman Hearns was one for the ages! And when Hagler retired after the Leonard fight, he retired. No coming back for a few more million. One of my favorites.

IMO, the 1st round of that 1985 bout is the greatest single round of boxing ever! This had to be the best era of middleweights in the history of boxing with Hagler, Hearns, Leonard and Duran.

Hitman Hearns posted that Hagler became
ill after receiving the Covid vaccine.
