    methinks you are full of BS, less interested with facts and carrying on with a personal fantasy

    again, numbers dont lie, and freeze frame video trumps ANY opinion, including a handball enthusiast. Who could be dumb enough to rely on that?

    and who would be dumb enough to rely on the opinion of a quitter mid fight, who calls Hagler a coward, and then POST IT!

    seriously, why would you do that?

    Do you ever give any thought to what you do?

    The fact is: Leonard was awarded the decision.

    It’s factual.

    It happened.

    Nobody cares about your warped fantasies.

    With every response it encourages our friend to answer with a dozen aberrant responses of his own.

    Yes, you're right

    The judges gave the fight to the wrong person

    But I'm not interested in bum decisions; I'm interested in who actually won the fight

    Official Judging = FACT
    JoJo Guerra 110 - 118
    Lou Filippo 115 - 113
    Dave Moretti 113 - 115

    Now that you know what a fact is you can take GED test with confidence.

    The self affirming mantras (bypassing critical thinking) that you practice in your mirror everyday don’t cut it on a serious discussion board.

    You the winner - per you being the sole judge ? Now that would be the worst decision of ALL time.

    Operating well within the admirable confines of civility courtesy, intelligence and logic, @ThatOne, metaphorically speaking, has beaten you up to within an inch of your life, even held you up a few times to prevent you from completely falling, as Johnson did Ketchel.

    Best to sit yourself down and take notes.

    which only confirms the need for an accurate system that is objective and without bias

    Enter freeze frame video

    It's the only way.

    in times past, there was a system called compubox but it was flawed

    according to research we find:

    How does Compu box work?
    "); display: inline-block; height: 24px; width: 24px; margin-top: -1px; transform: rotateZ(-180deg);">


    This content is protected


    In essence, CompuBox is a computerised program designed to count the number of punches thrown and landed during a boxing match. Two operators sit ringside with laptops, each focusing on the actions of a designated fighter. When fighter A throws a punch, operator A enters this into the system.

    primitive, passe, and non effective!

    Yes, i am the winner while ThatOne is the reluctant loser. he's lost to me five times in the last day and a half

    i could actually do this to anyone I please but most times I just hold back

    Seriously, how could anyone compete or dispute the evidence I bring? ThatOne doesnt know how to handle it because he's never had his views seriously challenged

    At one point, he proclaimed "Duran called hagler a coward after the fight!' believing he had a strong point

    But he soon saw the error of his ways and things went downhill from there

    Out of sheer frustration he said "I am your life coach!"

    Showing that he is incredibly unnerved and gotten to the point where this mismatch needs to end

    Yes it was popular talk in the older days. I can see the sense in it but it's not really a thing, certainly not now.

    Plenty of boxers were awarded undeserved wins.

    Official judging is irrelevant, plenty of boxers were given undeserved decisions.
