    leonard hurt duran early in round 10..leoanrd landed a hard combo in the late part of the round...duran looking confident but didn't land a whole lot . 5-5 after 10 rounds.

    It was a great fight, a fight that Leonard could have won had he fought his own style.

    But props to Duran for putting up a fight. It was a great one.

    Once Leonard fought his own style the second time around, we saw what happened. No mas happened. :D

    Duran has better accomplishments and better longevity which are important components when deciding who ranks higher

    leoard gave up way too many advantages being flatfooted and trading with duran...but even so, i have him winnning the fight.

    i think the judges were thrown off because they didn't expect trench warfare....they saw duran landing on leonard and a toe to toe battle and they figured duran had the advantage.

    but scoring the fight rbr, i have leonard winning it...to me leonard landed the harder punches, the cleaner punches throughout, but he let duran dictate the action...he was basically fightin duran's style.

    beat duran at his own game...but not convincingly enough to get the decision.

    146=144 duran from one judge...
    147-147 form the second judge
    144-145 duran from the third judge.

    close fight, could have gone either way.

    Duran fought Leonard Hagler hearns and benetez all in their primes

    Leonard fought two guys I. Their primes

    He lost to Duran
    Got out boxed easily by paper chin and luckily hearns gassed and got his glass shattered

    Leonard Duran 2 is a joke, We all know Duran didn't train
    The fact it still remained close is the real joke

    Leonard ducked Hagler
    Duran out boxed prime Hagler and almost beat him, only guy to do it
    Leonard fought a shot to bits Hagler and some still claim he lost

    He lost against hearns in the rematch

    Duran is a 130-135 guy, he came into the 80s already out of his prime
    And still gave two of the Fab Four nightmares

    Hearns was the impossible matchup because of the height but major kudos for Duran to even take the fight

    Maybe the Montreal Duran could have caught glass chin with a left hook
    But glass chin starts really good, Durans only hope was to last a few rounds
    If he could catch glass chin he would have easily finished him

    LMAO @ this f*ggot sniping at Hearns for reducing his beloved idol a crumpled heap inside of two rounds. You're not even attempting to hide how utterly butthurt you are over it. :lol:
