[Scott9945]

Tonight on ESPN at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT there will be a documentary on the infamous "No Mas" fight.

As much as I love SRL, I hope it will not be an SRL nuthugging picture.

What else could it possibly be?! It sure as hell won't be a Duran nuthugger... In fact, there's no way it could make Duran look any better from a historical perspective...

I thought this was a very good show, until the last 15-20 minutes when Leonard's enormous ego became transparent. The last segment also had the feel of one of those fake reality shows that are polluting television now. But well worth watching for everything before that.

Imagine if we switched roles and did Hagler-Leonard and asked Ray why he refused to fight Marvin for so long.

Better yet how he plotted to get duran back in ring knowing full well he would not be the montreal shape Duran.

I liked it. Agree about the end though, Leonard should have to answer some of those tough questions too, but he at least has admitted to his plotting to get a quick Duran rematch and waiting on the Hagler fight. Duran still will not admit to just quitting because of Leonard's clowning and not wanting to be made a fool of anymore. I did like that they seemed to reconcile at the end. I noticed the same thing on the Tyson reality show currently running, he and Holyfield seemed to have mended fences these days.

I am glad it was enjoyable for you. We did not get to view it up in Canada. I knew there was an upcoming documentary as I had seen a press conference on you tube but I thought it was more to with the trilogy of fights. As far as Duran just quitting I think he still cannot understand the physical symptom's he claimed to have during the fight. It might have been simply anxiety or a physical symptom due to overeating after the weigh in. We will never know.

just saw it on DVR. This was a good one.

If he finds out that he got beat by a flake, Roberto going to get enraged.
