Who was further from their prime- Leonard or Hagler?

[Nawfal]

who was further from their primes when these two fought?

Leonard had just come off retirement

people say hagler had slowed in the mugabi fight

[Irländsk]

Hagler had been in more wars than leonard, had far more ring age than leonard. leonard retired earlier than most and was not far off his prime in his comeback.

Leanord without a doubt

Leanord without a doubt

yup, no doubt at all. At least Hagler had fought in the three years before that fight...and at middleweight.

[ChampionsForever]

They were equally both past it, a bit like Ali-Frazier III, they both had alot of fight left in them but weren't near their prime standard.

how are they even comparable? One guy had his best win two years before (kayo of hearns) and knocked out the #1 contender the year after.

The other guy didnt even fight for the last 3 years...and fought once in 5 years!
