Closer fight to Call : Hagler Vs Leonard or Mayweather Vs Pacquiao

Many thought Hagler and Manny won those fights. The were also very different fights.


Which one is easier to rate and score?
Which one was a more convincing win?

Any posters around that think both Hagler and Manny won those fights?

 

8-4 both fights to Floyd and Leonard

 

Who thought Pac won? I did have Hagler narrowly winning.

 

Well, That was a stunning answer! So it was not a hard call for you at all.

I think Manny and Hagler won both but it was close. I give a lot more credence to aggression and making the fight.

 

118-110
FMJ had tougher sparring sessions then the actual fight with Pac.

 

I have only watched Floyd vs Manny once. Is there really a case for Manny winning?

 

I thought the Mayweather fight was clearer.The Hagler v Leonard fight could have gone either way.imo

 

First I have heard of someone scoring the Floyd fight for Pac? I guess I need to rewatch it in spite of the disappointment I remember it as.

 

Not to me.

 

Very underwhelming fight, almost painful to watch. Yeah, I've heard of a few people scoring for Pac, but I'm a little unclear how exactly. I had Floyd winning at least 8 rounds easy, with other rounds likely going his way as well. So that would have to be some reversal of how I remember the fight going to score it for Pac. I'd believe Pac took a dive before I believe he did enough to actually win the fight outright.

 

Hagler v Leonard, definitely.

I think I had Floyd - Pac, 8 rounds to 4, for Mayweather quite handily.

 

Mayweather-Pac wasn't really close, it was comfortable for Floyd.

I think Leonard won but it was clearly a closer fight than May-Pac.

 

Two fights that seemed pretty clear cut to me..
May be you can make an argument that Hagler vs Hearns was hard for you to score....
If you still had trouble scoring May Pac then boxing probably isn't you're thing

 

Hagler,Floyd won.Marvin came on in the end to cop win

 

Amazed this is even a question. Leonard-Hagler was genuinely close and controversial, and is still bitterly disputed more than thirty years later. Pacquiao-Mayweather was a dreary, unexciting fight, but largely because it was clear pretty much from the off who was in control and who would get the decision - it wasn't close. Fairly competitive, perhaps, but not close. Nobody would have been surprised if Hagler had got the nod over Leonard at the time, whereas 90% of onlookers would have been completely gobsmacked if Manny had got his arm raised against Floyd that night.

I've seen people talking on YouTube about Manny getting jobbed against Floyd, but they kind of give their game away when they start talking about how he schooled 'Gayweather the runner', Pinoy Pride!, 8 weight classes nobody can beat that! etc. etc. They're the crazed fanboys who shouldn't be taken too seriously. But basically every non-partisan, genuine boxing fan I've spoken to had Mayweather winning by at least two or three rounds, often wider.
