    I'm reading Irish Thunder The hard life and times of Micky Ward right now. Eklund says in there that he lied to people when he was high, he knows he never knocked Ray down, he slipped. Still if Eklund had really trained and not partied so much he might have had a much better career.

    No, it was a slip. Either way it doesnt matter. Leonard won a hard fought, but wide decsion. Dicky was a good herky jerky type fighter with a good jab. Clearly not a knockdown
