While Leonard was winning, he wasn't dominating the rounds. I'm a massive fan of boxers who move, work behind the jab, and throw combinations. But Leonard wasn't busy enough to be totally dominating Duran. His jab wasn't being shooting out on a regular basis and his flurries were few and far between. He was more focused on keeping away from Duran, thus fighting a very defensive fight with a low punch volume.

Leonard's movement was the key. If I was being critical, it would because he wasn't busy enough. It was this very reason why some rounds were close.

While you can't knock Leonard for not letting off heavy artillery often, his jab was scarce throughout the fight.

He was still winning though, would you agree?

Now Duran is one of my favourites of all time, but I think for the rest of this fight he would have only had a punchers chance

Who said he wasn't winning?. I'm talking about the manner in which Leonard won for as long as the fight lasted.
