    Hagler - Hearns
    Hearns - Leonard 1981. Ray could seriously take a punch and what a finisher.

    Agreed, not great for action but if you reckon drama preceedes action then it's a treat. The last couple of rounds are superb.

    Not a classic but it's very memorable.

    Yeah always enjoyed Freitas. Shame Brazil Doesn't really seem to produce boxers, though they've got a decent MMA stock so I'm not sure why thats the case?

    He had some great support for the Barrios fight. I've only watched half of it, but the crowd was very noisy and passionate and I don't think that there are many Brazilians in Miami.

    Just watched a great fun fight from the late 80's Renaldo Snipes v Lionel Washington, a "must watch" if you've not seen it before.
