    spot on analysis rafael...I think 118-110 hagler is an absolutely legitimate score (Leonard ONLY won 2 rounds clearly)

    No question. I did have it 116-112 like yourself, but I do agree.

    Hagler won that fight. But he kind of knew SRL had already won the fight before the scores were read.

    Hagler won....but he should have one a lot more decisively.

    Leonard 'banked' 4 of the first 6 rds. No question

    The reason Hagler is so pissed is because he knew he boxed the wrong fight!!!
    I score it a draw and that is being nice..just because Hagler landed the heavier shots.

    Leonard by 2 points. I don't see how Hagler won a round until the 5th?

    Congrats! Most arrogant idiotic post this year.

    Leonard won a close decision imo.

    "If you don't agree with me you're not a true boxing fan"

    Great argument.

    Shut up, you're not a true boxing fan :D

    JK! Seriously now, that is a solid post. I wasn't so impressed with Leonard's "flashy" tactics to tell you the truth, but Hagler could have done better. Either way, Hagler deserved the nod imo.

    Hagler won the fight, but Sugar ray won the show. It was clearly a mind **** by Leonard. He wore white so the judges, spectatrors etc, watched HIM instead of hagler. If you watch the fight, notice how your eyes automatically draw to Ray. Brilliant tactical move, but I had Hagler in a close one.

    :lol:

    Its actually vice versa - HAGLER only won 2 rds convincingly & those rds were 7 & 8..... THATS WHY he lost the fight because Leonard won more clearer rds & other than rds 7 & 8 stayed right there with Hagler in every other rd.

    LEONARD OUTBOXED & OUT-THOUGHT HAGLER - SRL deserved that decision & Im sooooooo glad that justice was done, at least by 2 judges.

    Watch Hagler do a little dance at the end & you know right there that he knows he lost that fight.

    Marvin isnt angry because he thought he was robbed, he`s angry because he & Leonard met to decide the best fighter of that great era & Leonard WAS everything he was cracked up to be & proved the superior boxer.

    THE END !
