Yup!..It was pretty dumb on Haglars part..the worst part is you'd think he knew better!..

Can't be no robbery when you voluntarily present your opponant with the first 4 rounds on a platter.

So lets just say that the first 6 rounds of this fight wasnt Haglars best work.

Not the worst robbery ever.
When did you last see the fight? I haven't seen it in a long time but I had Leonard winning clearly.

I always found Round 2 to be extremely close; definitely scorable for Hagler.

I scored the fight a draw with a couple of even rounds, which I generally hate giving. There were some rounds there were just a select few punches to really choose from.

Fights like this are what make boxing so much more interesting than other sports.. Could watch it 3 times and have Hagler/Leonard/Draw and none would be wrong, just seeing it differently each time.

I guess it must only me taht saw it this way, but the fight looked like leonard had a walk in the park wiht this fight. he beat hagler every which way from sunday.

I know I'll sound like a broken record to those who have seen my comments on it previously, but oh well.

I thought Hagler landed the harder, cleaner shots, and also put in a lot of good body work that seems to go unappreciated. Much of Leonard's flash was caught on the gloves and shoulders on Marvin, and many of the shots that did get through were grazing, few landed really flush.

I've scored it 3 or 4 times with an open mind, and every time I have it come out 7-5 in favor of Marvin.

Round 1: 10-9 Leonard
Round 2: 10-9 Leonard (20-18 Leonard)
Round 3: 10-9 Hagler (29-28 Leonard)
Round 4: 10-9 Leonard (39-37 Leonard)
Round 5: 10-9 Hagler (48-47 Leonard)
Round 6: 10-9 Leonard (58-56 Leonard)
Round 7: 10-9 Hagler (67-66 Leonard)
Round 8: 10-9 Hagler (76-76)
Round 9: 10-9 Hagler (86-85 Hagler)
Round 10: 10-9 Hagler (96-94 Hagler)
Round 11: 10-9 Hagler (106-103 Hagler)
Round 12: 10-9 Leonard (115-113 Hagler)

I'll gladly discuss any rounds with people who question why I gave it to the said fighter.
