Hagler requested a rematch but Leonard chose to retire again (the third of five high profile retirements announced by Leonard), having said he would do so beforehand.[22][23]Hagler himself retired from boxing in June 1988, declaring that he was "tired of waiting" for Leonard to grant him a rematch. In 1990, Leonard finally offered Hagler a rematch which reportedly would have earned him $15m, but he declined. By then he had settled down to a new life as an actor in Italy and was now uninterested in boxing.[24][25] He said "A while ago, yeah, I wanted him so bad, but I'm over that."[24] At the 1994 Consumer Electronics Show Hagler and Leonard had a mock rematch by playing against each other in the video game Boxing Legends of the Ring, and claimed that an actual rematch was being plannedyeah ray admitted he waited till hagler was flabby n sick. ray was a truthful cherry picker....never lied about it.
Sugar Ray was the worst
..He ducked Aaron Pryor too

Sugar Ray was the worst
Besides Sugar Ray Robinson, who do u have as a better ALL TIME Middleweight than Hagler? Being a 11 year champion ain't no walk in the park...especially in the 15 round days.
Hagler was considered to be the Tyson in his division. Hard hitting take no prisoners. Sugar ray was the pretty boy. Many for the fact that he took the fight and lasted gave it to Leonard alone based on that.
But in all honesty Ray won that fight just like he whopped mayweather' pops
No disrespect to the goat money Mayweather

yep but certain people don't understand that. you just cant recover from constant wars especially when you are sloping down your prime anyways.
its not a video game where you recover full health.
I saw a lot of openings where a prime haggler would have countered ray but he was truly to war torn. but still competitive enough to make it a very close fight.
also haggler was a small mw. they wont say it but those other horsemen thought they could bully marvin. hearns is really the only guy truthful enough to say he thought marvin wasn't much and he could run over him easily. marvin came into title fights at 155-157 all the time.....nikka was really 2 inches away from being a damn jr mw.
