    Saw this fight again a couple of year ago, I had Leonard via close but clear decision. Hagler didn't do enough to win. Leonard had the superior activity and landed the harder shots.

    Hagler, but this is absolutely the last ****ing thing in the world I want to get into today, maybe tied with any Lewis-Vitali conversation.

    The judges said Leonard won, I disagree, and there we have it.

    Even if you had it for Hagler. Leonard still got the W and he walked away with the big W.
    Hagler reired and Leonard had a pretty good run after that.

    Watch it again, it will get closer! I say this because it has been my experience that this the only fight in my experience that the more times you watch it the closer it gets! I had Leonard winning but his advantage on the cards has diminished over the years!

    Dont forget that scumbag Leonard stabbed Donald Curry in the back to get that fight. Leonard was supposed to be retired & was acting as Don's ADVISOR!!! Don wanted to move up for Hagler but Leonard talked him out of it & secretly negociated the fight for himself. Thats why Leonard wisely stays out of Texas

    I thought Leonard won... a lot of people say pitty pat punches but there still punches and they count. I just didn’t think Hagler did enough to win.

    This fight was one of the most controversial fights in the history of boxing. I have watched the tape of this fight a hundred times already. First I thought that SRR won it but now I thought it should have been a draw.
