Sugar Ray Leonard = Marvin Hagler Thomas Hearns = Roberto Duran Roberto Duran = Sugar Ray Leonard Marvin Hagler = Thomas Hearns
Hagler - Hearns. Leonard - probably Hearns, although Hearns was beating him until he got tired. Hearns - Duran Duran - SRL
We've had this discussion before and you keep throwing that word round loosely, when it doesn't apply here so let me explain it once more. Most unbiased realistic scorecards had Hagler losing 3 of the first 4 rounds or possibly all 4. That mean's Hagler had to realistically win most of the rounds from that point on, now my question to you is was Hagler really that dominant through 5-12 ? that you think it's unreasonable that Leonard couldn't of won a close decision ? considering the fact Leonard in most peoples eyes swept the early rounds ? This fight doesn't fit the criteria of a robbery meaning = No possible way Leonard couldn't of won which is not true it was a close debatable fight.
Hagler (Hearns) Leonard (Hagler) Duran (Leonard) Hearns (Virgil Hill) I was going to go for Duran as Hearn’s greatest win, but for a WW to move up almost 30lb and beat the unbeaten LHW World champion is some seriously big potatoes…even for an ATG fighter like Tommy.
Was Thomas Hearn's robbed in his rematch with Sugar Ray Leonard? could that have been his career defining win?
Yea he won the fight but it would be looked at like how Bhop's win over RJJ in the rematch was. A good win but knowing the opponent had declined a lot from the first fight. I don't think it would be as great a win as his KO of Duran or Cuevas or his win over Benitez
Leonard was still highly rated going into 2nd Hearns fight. If anything Hearns was considered past it after KO loss to Barkley and struggling vs Kinchen. I don't think it's anything like Jones vs Hopkins TBH. I get what your saying but I don't necessarily agree with your Jones/Hopkins comparison.
