i see what you're saying but i think hagler's ability to catch and block has been overstated. leonard landed solidly and consistently in the first half. just cause hagler couldn't be hurt with a fucking bus doesn't mean the blows aren't scored.
leonard hit him plenty, just never had a chance of hurting him. i'll take leonards ineffective blows over hagler's not existent blows.
