    The Davey boy Green knockout was a scary one!

    You don't believe Arguello was competitive in the 1st rd against Pryor?

    That was Davey Boy’s signature wasn’t it? Leonard damn near decapitated him.

    Oh, man, I loved watching these 1st rounds. So action packed. I had Hagler-Hearns veritably squeaking by Frazier-Quarry and Paret-Ortega. Those 3 were the best IMO, but Hagler-Hearns by a hair. Thanks for doing this, Pat.

    I counted one jab in the Frazier-Quarry round. I think three or four in Hagler-Hearns.

    All power punches, and not just in name only — I mean the ratio of bad intentioned haymakers to overall punches in both has to top 75 or 80 percent.

    No...just rewatched it. Pryor had 75% of that round easily IMO

    Yeah, what about it? I thought there was only LaMotta, Norkus and then a couple scraps.
