===Hagler vs. Mugabi=== {{main|Marvin Hagler vs. John Mugabi}} Next was Olympic silver medalist [[John Mugabi]] of [[Uganda]], who was 26β0 with 26 [[knockout]]s and was ranked the number one contender by all three major bodies. The fight took place on March 10, 1986, as Hagler had hurt his back and could not fight on the first date booked in 1985. Hagler stopped Mugabi in the eleventh round of a brutal fight. Many ringside observers, including analyst [[Gil Clancy]], noticed that Hagler was showing signs of advanced ring wear and age. He was much slower of hand and foot and seemed much easier to hit. He had also completely morphed his ring style from a slick, quick-fisted, boxer/puncher to a strictly flat-footed, stalking, slugger to compensate for his loss of speed and reflexes. Hagler was now said to be seriously considering retirement.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=Lq9RAAAAIBAJ&pg=7013,987559&dq |title=Hagler Considers Retirement |date=July 3, 1986 |access-date=May 16, 2014}}</ref> Hagler's promoter Bob Arum was quoted as saying he was expecting Hagler to retire in the face of being challenged by Sugar Ray Leonard.
