Haugen beat the shit outta Mancini, but it meant nothing because Mancini was shot to pieces and out of retirement. Haugen himself was a bit past it. So early 80s Mancini versus late 80s Haugen. Who wins?
For sure Mancini was last it, but it's hard to completely discount their fight. I think haugen always gives him some trouble
Yeah, I don't think it's a one sided beating at all. Prime Haugen remains extremely underrated. I do think prime Mancini wins, but it's a competitive fight. It's not like Mancini was on some different planet from Haugen the way Whitaker and Chavez were.
