This is the first fight I remember in my life. I listened to it from my bedroom as my parents, who had invited my aunts and uncles over (and some others) were all watching the fight. The whole house was full of cigarette smoke and I was lying in bed just listening to the action. My uncles were yelling at the tv, "Come on Sugar Ray, go Sugar Ray, Go!" As I lay in bed, listening to all this action, everybody was in the living room munching on chips, drinking a few beers and hollering at the tv, I knew it must have been great - even though I'd never seen a fight before. I was only 7 years old. I could hear the concern in my uncle's voice during the fight, concern for Sugar Ray. It was obvious to me that Sugar Ray must have been doing not so well, and all my folks were pulling for him. It was so exciting to listen as Sugar Ray pulled the rabbit out of the hat in the 14th, and the whole living room exploded. It wasn't until many years later that I had a chance to see this fight on the internet. It's every bit as great I knew it was.

It is one of the great fights of all time, no doubt about that. Just out of curiosity, did you watch Pryor vs Arguello 1? Another underrated classic from the 80's was Sanchez vs Nelson, one of the best fights. Nelson made that a great fight because he was not overawed one bit by Sanchez and gave it his best in trying to win.

It's crazy to think that Ray Leonard was 25 years old and Tommy Hearns was 22. This is still the best fight that I've ever seen in arguably the greatest Welterweight era of all time. 15 rounds, horse haired and foam mixed gloves, same day weigh ins and only 2 titles per division.

[@deanladue3151]

It made all the difference, Hearns had never been hit that hard before, ever. When Hearns dropped his guard low to protect from Ray's wicked body shots, his head was a prime target. I think that Ray nailed Hearns in the liver with that left hook, must have been extremely painful for Hearns.

[@ernestoluzarraga9356]

Exactly

[@nhwnhw02]

Many, many years ago saw an interview of Sugar Ray Leonard. He discussed that he would hit the body until the hands came down. Then he would hit the head. Last moments of round 13 and round 14. Tommy's hands were coming down and Leonard started with the right hand to the head. What an era. We could watch Pryor, Arguello, Mancini, Duran, Leonard, Hearns and my favorite Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Leonard was awesome but Hagler just had that something. They were all giants.

[@Skoshi33]

You hit the nail on the head. Those 6th and 7th round deep digs to Hearns body paid off in the 13th and 14th rounds. Sugar fractured his ribs with them shots...

Leonard's boxing was homage to Ali, he moved in a very similar manor and had exceptionally fast hands, stick and move and this technique was exactly what was needed this fight.

[@BufordTGleason]

Peak Sugar, great great fighter. Although Hearns was a devastating puncher as a welterweight, the trade off in stamina made the difference in the later rounds. I haven’t really watched this whole fight in a very long time one of the announcers in the fourth or fifth round, made a point of commenting that Leonard was perspiring heavily, while Hearns was not making the case that Sugar was expending a lot of energy when in fact, it was a sign of Tommy being dehydrated, which wold take its toll as the fight went on, especially in that sugar Ray was able to walk through punches that had clearly lost their steam and Tommy‘s legs which never quite looked steady after those body punches in the sixth I’m not making an excuse for Tommy whatever he did in training for this career, defining fight, obviously wasn’t the right thing to help him in the later rounds and Leonard was the stronger fighter in the closing rounds.

Leonard always seemed to have another reserve when normal people wouldnt. I use to blaim cocaine (cuz leonard isnt my favorite and i think most peoplebelieved he was using it) for his eneregy reserves. But the older i get the more i admire him. I still think he may have used the drug, but not while he was fighting. He just had the heart of a lion. The hitman crammed that 6ft 2" frame into 154lbs. Thats just awesome in its own right. All 3 fights were great

[@map2930]

One of the greatest fights I’ve had the pleasure to witness. The two best welterweight champions clashing when both still in their prime. Both excellent boxers and very skilful. This was a high level technical fight, not one clinch in the whole fight. There’s were bombs and lightning combinations thrown from both fighters, and plenty of back and forth. As the rounds went on Sugar was clearly the stronger, and once he got Tommy going, he didn’t let him off the hook. The finish was dramatic and.the fight is one of the most memorable and exciting fights to grace our screens. Two Legends.

[@NormAppleton]

I saw that, didn't see hearns in control of the fight ever

[@DrSeuss-nv9hw]

I have to agree with that analysis, Bassman 1000. Leonard had figure out what to do with Tommy's height and reach. Ordinarily, Ray would have been more aggressive, but had to be mindful of walking into Hearns' powerful right hand. Unfortunately for Tommy, Leonard was a really smart, crafty fighter. He also had a better chin, superior cardio/stamina as well as speed/accuracy. He would need all of these things to beat a young "Cobra." This was truly like a battle between a Cobra and a Mongoose.

[@salclark8842]

This was a great fight however I disagree ! Hagler vs Hearn’s was the greatest fight of all time! And sugar ducked 🦆 hagler!

I have probably watched this fight about 20 times if not more by now and every time I focus on a different skill set from these two…. The thing that made boxers of this era so great was their focus on being practical; sure you would see some flashy moves but most of the fights were composed of fighters that honed the basics to the highest degree… the way Leonard is able to just know when to be bladed and square and the way he combines his light side steps and unorthodox feints is just ridiculous and it seems so easy because he does it ever so gracefully but man that’s no easy feat. And hearns with his aggressive yet elegant flicker jabs and chopping rights and also his ability to put steady pressure on an opponent shows how fearless and skilled he is as well. Boxers now heck fighters now think because they’ve made money that they’re the best of the best to ever do it but being the best is to do it without receiving compensation to do it day in and day out without expecting anything in return

100% agree. He displayed it in this fight. He had to deal with Hearns' height, reach and power. He was on his bicycle early, giving away rounds. By the end of the fight, it was Hearns on his bicycle, peddling and trying to survive. Also, Ray had superior stamina, chin, defense and speed. In the end, the sum total was too much.

He did not have Hearns' height, reach or raw power. But he was superior to Tommy in too many other ways; chin, endurance/cardio, defense, speed and ring smarts.

What a bunch of garbage for two main reasons. First of all, Leonard took 10-rds to KO Floyd Sr. Floyd Jr. was 100x the fighter that Floyd Sr was. So if Floyd Sr. went 10-rds with Leonard, WHAT makes you think that Leonard would just walk through Floyd Jr.????? Next - you comparing Floyd Jr. to Leonard is ridiculous for the simple fact that they were never really in the same weight class. Leonard STARTED as a welterweight, and he fought as high as a light heavyweight! Floyd started at 128 to 130-lbs, and he ENDED HIS CAREER at welterweight. So how in the heck can you even compare the two when it's obvious that Leonard is just a naturally MUCH BIGGER fighter? Did you see what Floyd was doing to his opponents at 130-140-lbs? He was demolishing them. At 130-140-lbs, Floyd was a speedy, BRUTAL, heavy puncher who was just hurting opponents real bad. Did you see what he did to Diego Corrales? Did you see what he did to Arturo Gatti? Floyd is every bit as good of a fighter as Sugar Ray Leonard was, right down to the Olympic Gold Medals that they both won. You do not know anything about boxing.

THE GREATEST FIGHT I HAVE EVER SEEN....TO THIS DAY

[@mayklcekson5511]

Welterweights just don't move like those two did compared to those in this decade of ours considering this fight was set for 15 rounds. What a pace, and two belts on the line. And Its a hell of a reflection of all the great fighters that preceded both Ray and Tommy because in their fighting youth I'm guessing there was only one belt on the line. If we are never to be rid of all these sanctioning body's we have any time soon , then i would propose that all unification fights from now on are set for 15 rounds as a compromise.

[@mayklcekson5511]

@PJ Rivera ; Not sure about that. I would say that fighters back then from the beginning of the gloved era were mentally tougher than those of today in particular because they fought more often in a single year , and sometimes more than twice in one month. Scars were not given time to heal , and skills yet not refined. But we can exclude those fighters like Jack Johnson , Benny Leonard , and later Willie Pep from the equation. Your always going to get fighters way ahead of their time's in terms of their skills over others of their own decade. I would say fighters of today are under better management and are more nourished, and are generally paid better all around. And Its easy to assume that skills evolve over time because of knowledge passing from trainer to trainer , but at the same time its easy to assume that some of those skills could well be lost before fights were recorded on film. However on reflection i would say that the fighters of today *ought* to be superior than those of yesteryear , but not as mentally hardened or challenged.

[@mayklcekson5511]

@PJ Rivera ; Yep , that's because of all those dangly belts hanging around their waists. A three time whatever champion today wouldn't mean jack to those of yesteryear. And if they have a LOSS on their records , they loose their marketing appeal. I mean all the greats lost , that's what made them great because they reversed it. Also humanity is growing taller. The prime middleweight division has now become the supermiddleweight division because the average person is getting taller. Look at 'AJ' for example. Cannot feint , cannot understand what or why the need to feint is so important. He's too methodical. Sometimes the trainers have to let them loose , you cannot train a grizzly to be a bunny. We have to do away with them b'stard belts 👍
