      I was strongly cheering for Hagler, but I scored the fight for Leonard.

        I had Leonard winning.

        Hagler threw the fight away by coming out orthodox and trying to outbox the boxer.

          Hagler should have won. Leonard hadn't fought a real fight in 5 years, Leonard won that fight. That was the start of the crybaby losing that we have now. From that fight on, fans of in fighting slugger never admit that their boy got outboxed. It's like there's no such thing as being outboxed. People ain't trying to hear that. They'd rather cry and say the other dude ran.

            Ive seen the fight a number of times, and I cant really understand how people score the fight for Leonard. even if Im being generous for him, the only rounds you could have possibly scored for him are 5 of the first 6 and maybe the 11th. at worst, thats a draw for Hagler. Im pretty sure that Hagler won the 5th? round very clearly.

            I dont know, I generally score for the guy whos landing the harder shots, and I felt that Leonard really started feeling them as the fight went on.

            fun fight.

                  A lot of the rounds were close but Leonard's tactic to steal the rounds in the last 30 seconds worked for him perfectly because he kept the rounds virtually even for 2.30 and then started flurrying in the last 30 seconds to win the round.

                  The score of 118-110 by one of the judges was ridiculous though.

                    I scored it a draw, which is gonna be the result of Cotto-Margarito.
