Late cause I posted in the other thread. But RIP to the late legend who was one of the first "commercial" boxers that I remember coming up. Meaning he was known my much of the mainstream media cause i remember seeing his face a lot growing up it seems.

live watch of hagler leonard? :usure:
Although my condolence still goes out to Hagler, Leonard did barely win, and I mean barely, plus I don't think this is the time to take away from a legend like Leonard, when we just lost a legend. Re-watch the bigger Delahoya when he fought the smaller Mayweather. That fight went very similar to Leonard/Hagler, almost identical. I read somewhere that Floyd Sr. actually thought his son lost. It reminded me of years later, when Juanita, Rays wife at the time, said she thought Ray lost. If anybody can give that victory to Mayweather, then they should have no problem giving that victory to Leonard. Again RIP Marvin Hagler. We definitely lost a legend.

This whole fight was madness. Just sheer madness.
What gave Hagler/Hearns the edge was the slugging starting damn near instantly. I went to see both fights on Close Circuit at the Capital Centers in Landover, Md. I had never seen anything like that Hagler/Hearns fight, not with two legends going at it. Although that fight was short, everybody pretty much felt they got their moneys worth, and some.

I agree it was a fire fight from jump.
