He was the former IBF Lightweight Champion,andWBO Light Welterweight Champion/jw: He fought Julio Cesar Chavez in Mexico City when Chavez was at his heights in one of the top attendance boxing shows in history. He was a Nightmare (twice)to Hector (Macho) Camacho when Camacho was yet undefeated and considered a phenomina. Haugen and Vinny Pazienza were involved in a famous triology. He wasn't the No. 1 greatest lightweight all-time but is rated very highly.
I followed his career while it unfolded and I really can't say enough good about what he accomplished. Even against Chavez, he went into the great Mexicans back-yard and from his taunts, he asked Chavez to "give him no quarter". I think he will be forever remembered strongly for that...
