A draw isn't too far fetched. I scored it 112-112 even crazy enough. Many of the middle to late arounds were swing rounds in my honest opinion and Leonard fought his ass off in the 12th & final round. 2 Legends that will never be replicated... Bravo!

[@TomGray-pq4ke]

Hearns gets two 10-8 rounds in the 3rd and the 11th rounds for the knockdowns. The two big rounds Leonard had in the 5th and the 12th were devoid of knockdowns and he didn't dominate enough to get 10-8 rounds in either instance. That being the case, Leonard needs to win that fight eight rounds to four in order to get a 112-112 draw. There's no way in hell Ray won eight rounds of that fight. Leonard admitted he lost and that says it all. The decision was only proof of his star power, which was something that Ali benefitted from late in his career.

I came up boxing in the area where Ray Leonard’s gym is, and I’ve met him a bunch of times. But I’m pretty tall and lean for my weight class so I modeled a lot of my style on Tommy Hearns. I had a conversation with Ray one time about watching tape on the greats and taking everything I could from their matches. He asked me which fighter I thought my style was most like and I told him that it was Tommy. He said that I picked a great fighter to emulate and told me not to forget about Tommy’s most important attribute which he considered to be his heart and determination.

I watched this live and so many times since. IMO, Hearns should've won this fight in a split. I was watching with a bunch of older boxing men and I remember them all booing when Leonard was declared the winner. - Watching Hagler, Leonard and Hearns in the 80's was such a gift to watch. I was a teen and a little too young to really appreciate the kind of high-level boxing they were doing. Amazing.

[@oSupaDupaFlyo]

1:00 so many legends in one frame. Emanuel Stewart, Jacobs, Hearns ,Leonard, Steele and Buffer..

[@renancastillolopez6033]

two great athletes...I miss them. We will never have these warriors again...peace.

At the end of the day this two legends gave the people what they wanted a hell boxing match

[@curtisrobbins2980]

Tommy Hearns like Marvin Hagler says he needs to keep punching!! Ray Leonard was a good fighter great fighter but this fight he was the All-American boy from the Olympics gold medalist commercial flashy had the Speed pumped up the crowd manipulated the judges and this fight after they called it a draw the crowd was yelling b******* b*******!! Just like the great Marvin Hagler metal way Ray Leonard had his Corner let him know the last 30 seconds so you come out flash seats is still around get the crowd pumped up punches weren't hurting Marvin Hagler this is flashing us mother manipulated the judges and he stole that one too I'm the great Marvin Hagler!!!

[@KTF0]

Hearns has had a pretty really impressive career. Even after this fight, he won the WBA Light Heavyweight title so winning titles from Welter to Light Heavy. In almost every era besides his own, he'd probably be #1 pound for pound.

I agree. Hearts was two victories from being the Goat. If he won against Leonard and Hagler he would be considered top 5 ever. Both fights were winnable aswell

Mr Hearn was always my personal favourite back in those days when the cream of the crop was in my opinion the best days in boxing god bless you all for the excitement and edge of your seat fights ✌️👍

[@teddygonzalez189]

Wow, I missed this one! They took that one from Tommy. That's one they should've definitely have him. Both showed great sportsmanship.

[@rolandosalazar3620]

Salute to the two great champions. They are all good fighters. This is boxing to its best. Its indeed a draw. Despite of two knockdown, Leonard finished the round valiantly. What a classic fight.

[@NuisanceMan]

Yeah, the first knockdown wasn't much since Leonard was already badly off-balance from slipping. Also, Leonard really battered Hearns at certain points. At the end, I really couldn't tell who should win.

[@oldschoolruler]

Amazing. Ali/Frazier 1, Joe gets the shit beat out of him. (Spent almost a month in Intensive Care after the fight) Has one solid knockdown, and that has been the excuse for him being given the decision for over 50 years. Hearns/Leonard 2, Ray gets beat to hell and knocked down TWICE, regardless of how you justify one not being legit, but you see it as a draw? wow...

[@kakashihatake6176]

​@@oldschoolruler joe gets the shit beat out of him? Did we saw the same fight? even without that knockdown he would be the winner, he was the best fighter that night

[@fitrideshita]

I got 115 - 111 Hearns. Few close round could go either way but that Knockdown sure made differences.

If you knew anything about boxing you would know the 2 times in this fight that Hearns lost a point to the judges officially, they had no choice but to deduct, as a trained judge i know this but i won't bother pointing it out, people don't listen, maybe if you look closer you can work it out yourself??!!!

I respect Ray Leonard a lot for admitting to Hearns that he was beat in this fight, even without getting the decision. Took Leonard a few years to say it, but at least he did. Some people will continue to dillude themselves forever, ala Castillo vs Mayweather

[@200littleman]

Castillo didn’t win the first fight though that’s the difference. That’s why that’ll never happen. He didn’t deserve the decision. That’s usually just a narrative pushed by people that don’t like Floyd. The fucking ridiculous compubox stats shift peoples minds also.
