When SRL beat Hagler, one judge had it 118-110.

Don't you remember, the message boards and all of the internets when Leonard and Hagler fought went OFF THE HOOK back in the day....

 

Exactly just wasn't the platform for such things but that fight I had it Hagler but it was a pick em type of fight,was there corruption back then,sure there was.

 

Lol I was defending myself furiously in twitter back in the day.
I got booted daily from boxing forum, I don't know how many IP addresses I have to change.
Yeah seems like yesterday. Good close fight though that one.

 

Two completely different fights.

SRL actually employed defensive skills to win his rounds, Canelo threw out a cameo once a round (most of which didn't land) and the judges seemed to acknowledge that more than getting completely outboxed for 2mins 30secs of every round.

The worst judging I have seen.

 

Now that you mention it, there were some similarities like you say. There was some outrage over that card for sure, but it was a different era, no internet to vent on like there is now. And I don't think as many people thought Hagler won as thought GGG won though I may be wrong there. I've gotten used to the bad decisions over the years. Nothing you can do about it so no use stressing over them. As long as I don't bet on the fights and as long as it is a good one I can live with it. Not like we didn't all know what was going to happen if the fight went the distance

 

Hagler was outraged that's for sure

 

You are talking about the fight and these cucks are talking about the internet. Pure deflection from the facts.

 

I'll just say this once...one fight, or how it was scored, has nothing to do with another.

 

Hagler didn`t walk down Leonard the way GGG did vs Canelo, the fight on saturday was on another level, when Ray tired against Hagler not that much was landed compared to what GGG landed vs Canelo, even though Saul rode those shots and many didn`t land clean the intelligence GGG showed to open up the cagey Saul was way above a slow handed Hagler that showed up against Ray, he couldn`t use his usual offensive skill and was completely undone by Ray who wasn`t throwing the clever shots Canelo threw though he fought well, GGG would have wiped the floor with Leonard if you take them on these respective nights and he was simply a better stronger middle than Ray and Canelo would have beat Hagler the way he looked that night by a much larger margin than Leonard, only certain things from both fights were the same kind of like the ageing Hagler-Leonard superfight was a poormans Canelo-GGG but it would have been great in a fantasy if both fights were on the same bill because the Hagler fight had more tension at the end and atmosphere, the GGG fight was great in terms of skill and offensive inventiveness but it never really caught fire, they were both too smart.

 

It was an outrage I’m sure. I know when I read about the fight and watched it 15 years ago for the first time, I thought that card was shameful.

 

I think it was a different world, and people were still legit pissed back in the day regardless.

Maybe people didn't feel entitled enough to get so "outraged" back then?
