Hagler was the consensus #1 p4p in the world in what is considered one of the golden era's of the sport when Duran fought him. He was starving for a big money fight still though and Duran obliged. There's been a few fighters who've retired in their primes too so the fights afterwards can be misleading.
Better fighters than Duran have also fought close into their 40's too. The money in different era's can dictate how long some guys stick around and some guy it's not just to prove themselves either. They just love to fight.
