Tommy definitely got robbed in this one. Great fight nonetheless. Really in both fights, Tommy matched up really well against Ray. Hears held on in this one, and deserved the win.

I have watched boxing since 1970, and in the new 12 rounds games a 7-5 could easily be 6-6 or 5-7 in the eyes of different judges have different ways to see the score by different ways to understand a fight.

[@eac1235]

By numbers it was 114 to 112 or 113 to 110, by rounds it was 6 Hearns 5 Leonard 1 tie or even 5 to 4 with 3 tie rounds. I despise Leonard but he didn't get blown out in this fight. Hearns was the winner but did not dominate. Also 2 knockdowns doesn't automatically give someone a victory in a closely contested fight such as this. Just like the Hagler fight, Leonard fought inspired and had more energy but Marvelous still did enough to win by a point or 2 ,however in Vegas we know who gets the benefit of the doubt.

[@eac1235]

@@merveilmeok2416 I definitely agree. These 12 rounders make it harder than 15 rounds. Smaller body of work equals larger controversy. Lol

[@mikefields2243]

eac 123 with two 10-8 rounds Tommy wins that fight.

[@eac1235]

@@mikefields2243 Maybe he should have but didn't Hearns take alot of shots and the bell saved him it was a 10 -8 round for Leonard. If this fight was not in Vegas it was a sure Hearns win. Any fight in Vegas makes me cringe. I agree that Hearns won but he didn't dominate and as I said previously 2 knockdowns doesn't guarantee a win especially in a close fight.

[@robertsmale3714]

Hearns got robbed.Knocked Leonard down twice in the fight. Won more than 1/2 the rounds. How is this match a draw? Horrendous judging!!

[@HASANT33]

I always remember my uncle telling me when I was a kid, the only way Leonard would ever lose would be by KO. If he was left standing at the end of the fight and it went to the cards, he would win every time. This was told to me at the beginning of the Hagler fight. We all see how that turned out.

First fight ok , but Hit man Hearns won this fight .

[@angeldelrosario5125]

The hitman clearly won this fight, its just that leonard was so overrated and tommy was very underrated fighter....hearns was clearly a legend period.

[@DeCurtaRican]

Leonard wasn’t overrated at all, and Hearns wasn’t underrated. The problem was that Hearns was great offensively but poor defensively. So, while he would score lots of points, he was also an easy target to hit. It is very difficult to score a fighter like Hearns. That’s why he lost the fight. Hearns threw and landed the harder shots, but at times, Leonard seemed to out-land him.

[@jacobh7188]

@@DeCurtaRican Bullshit!!!!!! Hearns clearly won this fight. Also, Ray is overrated. This fight and the Hagler fight he got lucky. Also, he was losing the first fight against hearns but cos of his China chin, he lost. Idgaf what the scorecards say about this fight, Hearns should've won this fight.

how in the hell did one judge score the 12th 10-8 Leonard? that took the win from Hearns, who dominated and I mean dominated the first half of the round

[@seereeuss]

Naah. Hearns did absolutely no damage at all in that round 12. But Leonard did.

[@TOBORE8THMAN]

then 10-9 Hearns got robbed.

[@seereeuss]

Oh, give me a break. Leonard got robbed of a knockdown score back in the fight when these two were in their prime. And here in this fight, we allowed Tommy to fight like still in his 20s here and dang near 4 pounds heavier than his near-retirement opponent. So it ain't like we didn't do NUTHIN' favorable for Tommy. In fact, we might have done too much for him. The right thing was done here.

[@porkfrog2785]

' Leonard got robbed of a knockdown score back in the fight when these two were in their prime.' do tell...I've seen that fight 4-6x and have no idea what you're talking about

[@paulrodriguez5958]

If there’s no knock down then the last round should of been a 10-9 round in favor of Leonard no question. But 10-8 round? Cmon. Straight rip off

[@mizofan]

Hearns clearly won

[@SD4philly]

clearly kept holding for dear life ,

[@josecarlosaviles5830]

Hearns won clearly, everybody saw that clearly. The point is that a lot of people see Leonard as the "MISS UNIVERSE" of Don King and don`t wanna put their feet on earth!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Outdoorsy368]

Leonard was the media darling, could do no wrong. Shameless. This is why boxing slowly became crap

[@Gabriel-by4fd]

What Hearns did in the 10:19 min was typical of Monzon, after using the left jab he left the glove on the opponent's face so that he could not see the arrival of the devastating blow from the right, beautiful combination

These 2 Legends deserve a statue after the last 2 rounds

Close fight , but ray finished the stronger . Had it gone another round , ray would have stopped Tommy. But it didn't and even as a big SRL fan , I think Tommy deserved the win, on that basis.

Both of you are correct, robbed without a gun. I know Hearns personally, we both trained under Emanuel Stewart R.I.P., we both as many were amateur fighters at that time in 72, he was special then very talented fighter in Detroit's Kronk Gym on the westside.

I initially thought they stopped the first fight too early also.But Tommy didn't complain about the stoppage so what can you say.Plus Ray was about to finish him any.But Tommy was robbed in this one.Sugar put some tremendous hurt on him in some spots, but if you score it Tommy was clearly the winner.
