Your Scorecard for Hagler-Leonard

I've scored it a draw and most recently a point to Leonard.

A flurry with lots of clean punches landing isn't less effective because you label it a flurry. People who call it a robbery should be taken out the back and shot.

 

the reason you here talk about robbery is cause people always have a an agenda. the one judge who had 118-110 was an *******, but the other scorecards were fair, it was a close fight then leonard deserve to win. and hagler has himself to blame for that crap he pulled in the early rounds.

 

I scored the fight for Leonard 115-113 the first time and a draw the second time I scored it as I only scored it twice. I'll be honest, Hagler is one of my 4 favorite fighters but he gave a few rounds away and neither man won this fight clearly. It's not as "clear" for Leonard as some may think as either man has a case for winning this fight. I'm a fan of Leonard too but Leonard himself didn't do enough to win clearly. As far as famous close fights go, this is a pain to score as are Mccallum-Toney 1, Marquez-Barrera, Holyfield-Qawi 1, Morales-Barrera 1-2, and Pacquiao-Marquez 1 for instance.

 

Ok the first time i saw this i had Leonard taking a clear decision, believe i had him winning by 3 or 4 points.... I couldnt understand all the controversy... I thought welll maybe since i was watching with a lot of impressionable young viewers(i was a teen at the time) and thought hagler was gonna crush him.. That i just got caught up in the moment (as well as shocked) that i was a little to nice to Leonard, and fooled by his showmanship............. So the next time i remember me and my Dad watched the tape with the volume off and we both scored it a draw. I was suprised how differently i scored the fight, but im sure watching more carefully, with the sound off, and with a very knowledgeabe boxing guy(my dad),. That this had something to do with my much different scorecard.... Although i was already a knowledgeable hard core fan i dont thnk i was as keen as scoring fights as i am now, now i am much better at scoring fights and not be influenced by the announcers or other viewers.... So i voted draw 114-114... But i havent watched it in years and would be intrested on how i score it now????


Watching it the 2nd time i noticed that Hagler outworked him as was pushing the fight but still not landing any really big shots,,,,,,,,, Leonard seemed to land the much cleaner and flashier shots but didnt really do most of his work until the end of the rounds. Which fooled alot of people(including me the first time).

My prediction before this fight was Hagler by mid round kos... Hagler was considered the consensus pfp number 1 fighter and Leonard had been laid off for a long time, and his last fight he was dropped and troubled by fringe contender Kevin Howard before surging backfor a stoppage win... I didnt think he stood much of a chance against hagler who i thought wasa monster and would stalk Leonard down... Although i ended up scoring it a draw.. I thought this was a great win for Leonard and it seemed like he won. Even though my card said different (if that makes sense?)

Leonard, 115-113. Very close, and I am a big Hagler fan.

 

Totally agree.

 

Can't see how anyone can have a 9-3 card for either guy, or even 8-4. I think it's 7-5 either man or a draw.
