    Dear Lord.
    it's really sad that people don't take some time to at least try to learn some of the great history of this sport.

      People always tend to say incredibly ****** things about Duran in threads like this. I'm tempted to read through and see some of it.

      1. Duran
      2. Leonard
      3. Hagler
      4. Hearns

        These are the scorecards I could find for both fights from the press/media.... Draw from it what you will but both fights were close..... Both have dissenting cards so this clearly you continue to speak of.?.?.? Obviously not everyone agrees with you
        How in the hell can anyone score Leonard-Hagler so f***ing wide for Leonard!? What the f***?

          Duran
          everyone who voted duran as their last in the list are all entitled to their own opinion. but TS refers to level of greatness here which means body of work throughout their careers, not just who beat who in the fab 4. and also they dont belong to just one weight class.
          I honestly wasnt able to witness their era and I only coped up with replayed fights and videos but still I can say Duran was the best among the four. followed with leonard ofcourse. and I have a tie between hearns and hagler.

            The official judge was worse..... A guy named Jose Juan Guerra had it 118-110.....

              I hate knowing how someone's list looks like before they even post it, solely based on their bias

                  This is the reason people thought the fix was in. Seems nothing Hagler could have done would have won him the fight unless he got him out of there.

                  This has now translated through time as Hagler clearly beating Leonard which isn't true.

                  Although, I scored it for Hagler.

                      Not to the note but I had Hagler by a few rounds.

                      Close fight that could have gone either way.
