Ray looked me right in the eyes and said, "The reason why some people believe that Hagler won that fight is because they don't know boxing." I couldn't have agreed with him more. I've watched this fight at least a hundred times and at bout's end, each and every time, I come to the same conclusion: Leonard beat Hagler. And he did it convincingly. The decision by which Leonard won was split, but in the eyes of many it should have been unanimous. For those of us that aren't so sure about how a professional fight is judged, pull up a chair, take a seat and turn your antennae on. A pro fight is judged in four different categories: clean punching, defense, effective aggressiveness and ring generalship.
