just to educate him a bit.

Even when he was being a hardass, his skill and gamesmanship was incredible. He transitioned from southpaw to orthodox and back a few times which kept Tommy from fully finding him, while Hagler was able to still deliver shots from either stance. Then obviously having that killer instinct once his nose got mashed. Millions of words have been spilled trying to capture the drama of that fight, but it was the two baddest dudes laying it all on the line.

I've also watched Hagler v. Leonard a few times. I still feel like it was Hagler's fight, or a draw at best. He was my favorite dude from that era, though, so I'm biased.

RIP to a really real one.
