Marvin Hagler vs. Ray Leonard

[El_Cholo]

I thought SRL won it, but I can't sake off that he wanted for Marvin to dip before he fought him.

I think everyone knows Hagler lost, even the Hagler fans deep down. If Hagler had not cried about the decision it would of been forgotten about a long time ago.

If you were to put that fight on for a 100 people who were unaware of the so called controversy, i can almost guarantee most of them would say Leonard won, and thats because Leonard won the fight and Hagler fans are looking for something that is not there.

Three years old and you bumped this.What the *uck is wrong with you?

And Hagler lost that fight and he knows he did,Losing to an inactive welterweight was humiliating and hagler knows this,He was supposed to destroy Leonard and he couldn't.That's why he told a straight up lie that Leonard came up to him and said that he(Hagler) had won,Petty and immature much like your typical Hagler fan

It's a shame his fans didn't piss off to Italy with him and go star as extra's in his ****ty italian movies

I had it even at 114.

I didn't like that either, but Leonard also had declined.

Hagler won.

SRL threw some flash combinations and bolo punches, that's why he got the decision.

I had it a draw gun to my head to pick a winner I'd go Hagler though credit to SRL he snowed the judges.

It is amazing tho,Over 22 years ago it wasn't about who would win,It was what round Hagler would stop Leonard in,Leonard was given no chance and rightly so,He had been inactive for the past five years fighting just once in a poor effort in which he was knocked down by an average fighter,Hagler's status was that of a destructive machine,He got alot of recognition from the Hearns fight and he was untouchable to the sporting media so it is pretty amazing that we are debating a decision than in reality due to the circumstances surrounding it never should have happened

I'd like to hear an argument from a Hagler fan that Hagler convincingly won that fight without resorting to the same old bull**** exagerrated accusation that all Leonard did the entire fight was flurry in the last twenty seconds,Clear examples of morons who have never watched the fight themselves instead relying on the watered down,drama bull**** that HBO legendary nights provides them with

Had Hagler recieved a 118-110 card would you not claim that was bull**** also? A ridiculous scorecard that didn't reflect what had taken place in the ring.

Try and watch the fight rather than listen to what some bitter f*g on an internet forum tells you

No he lost.

Leonard got the decision because he won more rounds, thats why ITV's Reg Gutridge, Jim Watt were leaning towards Leonard on the ITV telecast aswell

Even if you dont think Hagler lost he certainly did not beat Leonard because he gave away too many rounds, you only need 6 not to lose.

Hagler winning the fight is a myth created out of Hagler's own frustration.

theres just no way hagler won that fight, the reason hes been crying for the past 20 years is out of embarrassment that he lost to a smaller guy out for 5 years....he won 5 rounds at most....everyone says leonard was just showing off, but he backed hagler off him round 9 the most important part of the fight....alot of hagler fans are just corny lames that couldnt respect a flashy guy like leonard so they just act like he was robbed because he never got hurt but he had one of the best chins ever.....

shortright, did you see the fight or you just guessing.. Past his prime?? Hagler retired because your sissy leonard would not give him a rematch. I saw the fight and let me tell you something, todays fighter are gives rematch, like DeLahoya, Hopkins, Mosley, Ali, Pacquio, Foreman, Holmes, ie.. Do I considered Leonard a great fighter, not at all. Hagler fought everybody out there..

haha bull****, hagler cried like a lil girl and said he never touched a boxing glove again....leonard turned hagler into a alcoholic coke snorting wife beater....trust he wouldve gotten beat convincingly in a rematch...
