Marvin Hagler vs. Ray Leonard

[Thoth]

On a side note, I remember hearing a while back that the Judge who scored 10-2 in favor of Leonard was actually the judge chosen by Marvin Hagler's people. This being true i'm not sure how you can justify claiming he was paid off. It's not completely out of the question, just seems less likely.

Still Think Ray won 115-113 just watched the fright two nights ago.

There is no way Hagler should have lost that fight. His gameplan was weak and didnt use his agressive tactics to his advantage until the last few rounds, when it was too late to get the W. I still believe that fight was a draw or a win from Hagler. Even SRL's wife stated that she thought Hagler won the fight

Years ago I scored this fight in favor of Leonard. I think I know a lot more now than I did then and my appreciation of Hagler and his style is much higher than it was then. I haven't seen the fight in years so it would be interesting to watch it again and see if I would have it differently. To see how the years change one's view of how the fight went. needless to say i had it close even back then maybe only by a round or two.

115-113 Hagler.

I don't care really, I don't like either fighter. You got a blinking, 2-faced, woman-beating, showboating ***** and a whining crybaby who always talks about how bad he had it and how tough he is yet he's so sensitive he has to change his name to feel liked.

Gay Leonard turned the Marvelous Milk-Dud into a binge-drinking, coke-snorting, wife abuser. He turned Marvin into another version of himself.

Gay Leonard= Marvin's daddy

I will never forgive leonard for being a ***** and not giving him a rematch,

cant believe leonard "retired" and came back again when he was sure hagler was gone

I saw that fight on pay-per -view and thought Hagler won,. I saw it a week later and thought it was very close, I can see how leonard stole rounds, but Hagler didn't fight like he could, he was to tight and overtrained.....

He said something like he didn't want the belts, then he comes back once Hagler leaves to fight Duran.

115-113 Hagler

i easily gave the 12th round to leonard, Marvin could barely hit him..
he was so elusive while Marvin just ate punches, especially the flurry against the ropes..what was it, 12 unanswered punches?

Leonard was the clear winner. Very rarely can a fighter give away the first 4 rounds and come back to win a decision. Leonard put on a boxing clinic that day. Hagler looked confused and fustrated during most of the fight. First he couldn't catch Ray and then when sugar stopped and traded with him hagler couldn't make him pay like he expected.

Then after Hagler lost he turned into a whiney *****.

"boo hoo that's what happens when you fight in vegas" lol, then he up and quits to become a movie star in Spain or somewhere.
