    For me the greatest fight i have ever seen.
    Contrasting styles with Leonard the boxer vs hearns the puncher who then in front of our very Own eyes Leonard then became the puncher and hearns became the boxer.
    At that time it was the richest fight in boxing history with Leonard getting 11 million and Hearns getting 8 million and the Undisputed titleon the line.
    It wasn’t a slug fest like we saw with hagler & hearns. But styles wise it was beautiful and it was high stakes.
    It was ebb and flow and one of the greatest finishes you will ever see in the championship rounds.
    In the words of Angelo .....let’s separate the men from the boys here ray ...your blowing it Son ...your blowing it....listen ray you got to be quicker you got to take it away from him...SPEED.
    Stuff of legends and my favourite fight in history
