Leonard won the fight 7 rounds to 5, Hagler gave away the first 4 rounds.
Ray won because he achieved the goal, the spectacal, he was the showman.
He won this fight clearly what are people watching when they say Hagler won How, what rounds did he win?
@@Reese8531 he did win the late rounds but I didn't see a Hagler win. That's the point though. People see different fights when there isn't a KO/TKO.
@@Reese8531 Clearly the same fight you didn't know how to judge. I mean, where do we start, the excessive holding SRL did? He held when he was in trouble, he held when he would miss, he held at times for the sake of holding. Warned throughout the ENTIRE fight about his excessive holding. The non effective punches that were nothing more than gloves padding Marvins gloves and shoulders? Stealing rounds with combo flurry's that weren't punches and had no actual power behind them? Ray, ran, jabbed and held or rushed in, missed and held, flurried when he was getting beat down and ran back. It was the most pathetic performance I have ever seen any boxer display. I had always respected SRL, thought he was great, but I had never seen him cheat to win a fight. Watch this fight again digesting what I typed here and try to convince yourself that it isn't true.
no @@TechieTard no amigo tu ToronHagler no pudo ni con Duran ni con Sugar ..solo es un golpeador Sugar volvio de su retiro , subio a la categoria de Hagler y se paseo con el .lo dejo en ridiculo .fue mucho mas inteligente y estaba mejor física
It's called boxing, not fighting. Footwork, feinting, moving, and evading are all aspects of boxing. Two people just standing and trading is called a street fight.
This fight is a work of art by Ray Leonard in my opinion. 🙂🥊🥊
Casuals tend to like toe to toe or “Mexican style” where you just sit there giving each other CTE for ten rounds. They like to call speedy defensive focused fighting “running” because their brains are smooth 🤷🏽♂️
@@chiarosuburekeni9325
That part.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 Yes, I hate when they say he "ran" for 12 rounds or whatever. They simply do not understand the sport of Boxing. 🥊🥊
There is areason why we call it a fight night🤡🤡
Hagler is one of my all time favorites, but he did not win more than four rounds in this fight and that’s generous. He was completely outfoxed.
Not “out foxed” but “out danced” by Leonard. It was a Las Vegas decision
@@rowdyrx6109 Leonard even landed the harder punches. Hagler just couldn’t get anything going.
@@rowdyrx6109Damn right. I mean, where do we start, the excessive holding SRL did? He held when he was in trouble, he held when he would miss, he held at times for the sake of holding.

Srl played Hagler for the fool ! I had this a draw and it should never have been that close. 1st srl had everyone gathered to supposedly announce fight with mmh, but retired. Once he felt that Hagler lost a step, he moved in. Gave mmh more money in exchange for bigger ring, bigger gloves, and 12 rnds. Hagler could not catch ray and looked slow all nite ! I still had it a draw, and had it been called a draw, it woulda forced a rematch in which srl wanted nothin to do with !! RIP champ !!
Truth
Leonard won almost every round of this fight. It wasn’t close at all. Hagler fans just ignore the truth. Leonard was a better fighter than Marvin Hagler.
Facts they just emotional
Overall, Leonard landed 306 of his 629 thrown punches (49%) compared to Hagler's 291 out of 792 (37%).
And Leonard landed more power punches, especially to the head.
Exactly and people are literally acting like that’s not what happened. If Marvin went to the body he may very well have won but Leonard controlled the mind of Hagler and made him fight with frustration. Leonard clearly won this fight he even punched himself off the ropes multiple times, trading with Marvin and winning the exchange
Facts but a lot of them acting like Hagler had Leonard hurt bout to knock him out
This fight has been analyzed for decades by boxing experts and computer technology and the fact is that Marvelous Marvin Hager landed 73 percent of all clean punches landed. If Leonard threw a 6 punch combination and landed 1 clean punch, the crowd went crazy and obviously his score went up, however the fact is this. Apart from the fact that Haggler should never have agreed to Leonards demands for a bigger ring than the standard size and bigger gloves than the standard size, so Leonard could run away from Haggler and Haggler would find it more difficult to hurt Leonard with the bigger gloves. Haggler should have never agreed to the fight when Leonard ran away from Haggler when they were both in their prime and refused to fight Haggler
PLUS THE RABBIT ABSOLUTELY REFUSED TO GO 15 ROUNDS -- AT THE END OF 12 HE WAS TOTALLY EXHAUSTED - HAGLER WAS READY TO FINALLY CATCH HIM -- THEN THE RABBIT BROKE OFF ALL CONTACT CONCERNING A REMATCH -- HE'S A TOTAL CHIKKENSH#T BUT HE WAS THE MEDIAS DARLING CHILD - DISGRACEFUL TO TREAT A CHAMP LIKE MARVIN LIKE THAT
Sugar Ray with his non effective, jaw dropping, crowd cheering flurry punching that did nothing other than hit Marvins gloves followed by hugs that even the Care Bears would be envious of. I have watched and re-watched and in slow motion and feel bad for the morons that thought Ray Leonard won, because they clearly weren't analyzing the fight, and Marvelous Marvin Hagler himself, for being robbed of a victory. Start of the 5th round, Marvin just walked him down the whole fight, and he did it beautifully. I'll never erase that 118 -110 score from my mind though.
@@TechieTard SIMPLY RIDICULOUS WASNT IT ?
Leanard wouldn't have fought hagler if he didn't agree to rays demands
What fight was you analyzing
Это было искусство! Не только скорость движения, но и молниеносное мышление! Рукавицы второго Сахарного, едва поспевали за его мыслями! Топ Рэнк, спасибо за хорошее качество изображения!
Sugar ray Leonard schooled this kid . Came out of retirement/ kept distance , and even at times he decided to exchange . Smart man I’m Mexican but not bias . Sugar ray Leonard is the mf goat of all time
sugar ray won a close but clear fight 115-113
Sugar Ray waited, and waited, and waited some more. Reduced the number of rounds to 12. Required heavier gloves. He ran the entire boxing match and still lost on my card. Hearns/ Hagler - the best ever!
And the excessive holding, my gawd! He was warned damn near every single round and never had a point deducted!
noo sugar fue mas inteligente .hagler no pudo con Duran tampoco con Sugar .
le gano a Hearns porq el flaco no tiene aguente y fue a la pelea cuerpo a cuerpo .
es box es box .no solo goloear ..o acaso no viste a M Ali ?
I had Marvin Hagler winning this fight, great fight, very close
I REALLY DIDNT THINK IT WAS THAT CLOSE -- LEONARD LANDED NO SIGNIFICANT PUNCHES -- WELL MAYBE ONE OR TWO -- REFUSED TO GO 15 ROUNDS -- INSISTED ON A BALLROOM SIZED RING & THEN RAN AWAY THE ENTIRE FIGHT -- LANDED NUMEROUS PITTY PAT PUNCHES THAT AMOUNTED TO NOTHING AT ALL -- THEN WOULD NOT EVEN DISCUSS A REMATCH -- THAT WAS THE BIGGEST THEFT IN BOXING HISTORY IMHO

@@antoniopulga4189 INDEED -- HELPED THE RABBIT CREATE AN ILLUSION FOR THE USEFUL IDIOTS THAT HE WAS IN A CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHT -- SURE WORKED ON THE PAID OFF JUDGES & DIMWITS WATCHING TV
@@jimnagel5611 Don't forget the size of the gloves that Leonard asked for. They used pillows! Then to top it off, his excessive holding that would normally have gotten any fighter a point deduction. I'm not against the 'sweet science' bicycle method, but I am against cheating a fighter out of his victory via technicalities.
@@TechieTard AND IF YOU WATCH THE END OF THE FIGHT THE RABBIT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF GAS - MARVIN WAS READY TO GO INTO THE CHAMPIONSHIP ROUNDS -- WHERE I BELIEVE HE WOULD HAVE FINALLY CAUGHT THE RABBIT -- LEONARD KNEW HE COULD RUN FOR 12 ROUNDS - BUT ABSOLUTELY REFUSED TO GO 15 -- HE WILL ALWAYS BE A CHIKKENSH1T IN MY BOOK -- HAGLER WAS ROBBED THAT NIGHT & EVEN OJ KNEW IT
HAGLER NEVER DANCED! He knew he was going to be robbed!
He should've landed a bit more if he didnt want to lose
hagler en su peso natural y con continuidad no pudo con Sugar ..sugar el torero y Marvin el toro...el torero toreo al toro ...Hagler nunca lo pudo agarrar .
sugar mas inteligente y rapido .le ganó la mayoria de rounds
Quand je revois ces combattants je me dis que ces boxeur sont d'un autre temps et d'une autre dimension,j'en est des frissons rien que a revoir et revivre ces matchs,ce sont des légendes qui marqueront l'histoire de la boxe a tous jamais.
Les boxeurs d'aujourd'hui sont devenues de véritables danseuses😢😢😢
Marvelous Martin hagler! R.i.p great champion,à warrior ❤
Round 9 one of the best rounds in boxing history
I’ve always thought there was a better quality version of this video… saw it once on TH-cam and for the life of me I can’t find it again… this quality is like a jammy VHS… I’m very great nonetheless 🤝👊🙏🏽
Because it was recorded on vhs. There’s only so much you can do to clean it up. If it was shot with film we’d be able to see it in hd but it is what it is
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 It exists in better quality for sure.
@@TheBest-sd2qf are you certain? It was the 80s. Tons of sporting events from that time were only shot on vhs. You’re saying there exists a copy of this fight that was shot on film?
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 the networks who covered ut must have a good quality copy. Also someone might have a tape they didn't watch too much.
Never tire of this. A classic of the ages. Leonard like the matador to the bull. Proving boxing is about movement, being smart, defence and counter offence. He approached this the way Bruce Lee wòuld have if he was a boxer. The art of boxing. Well thats my view but the opposing view is he run and stole the fight! 😂 Hagler was one dimensional in this fight plodding forward throwing the same punches hoping he would grind down Leonard and knock him out but he fell into the trap.
Matadors don't hug or hold bulls.
Classic
Господи помилуй! Таких лëгких ног, и умной головы как у Леонарда в этом бою, больше не видел! Второй Сахарный, просто порхал на ринге, порой кажется, он просто не касался настила! Спасибо!
"Take a jab! Take a jab! Take a jab!"
Stick and jab!
To people that still thinks Hagler should've won this fight you better get your eyes checked, being the aggressor but mostly missing the punches won't get you the win, Leonard's punches may seem not do any damage against Hagler but most of them landed, its easy to score.
I remember that time as I’m 56. Sugar Ray was manufactured along with many of his wins to create public interest and revenue. The authentic “Sugar Ray” had Robinson as his last name.
Leonard certainly landed more he just wasn't hurting Hagler but then again I don't think any boxer did hurt Hagler. I think this is why I like watching those brutal 3 rounds between Hearns and Hagler gives you a sense of how tough Hagler was.
That wasn't the reason many thought Hagler wont the fight. It was because Leonard held excessively throughout the entire fight. Now, if you didn't see that maybe you need eye surgery.
@@TechieTard Was it the second or third fight against Hearns… Leonard got knocked down three-times and got a split decision. Ray always got what he wanted, always.
Hagler should've worked the body more. Some of those shots were wrecking Leonard. Sugar was just the slicker fighter of the two. His footwork won him that fight as much as his boxing. Hagler is, was, and always will be a beast.
Leonard fights like Mayweather he knows Hagler has the power.
Mayweather actually fought. Leonard held and ran the whole night, it was pathetic.
Mayweather fights like Leonard*
Hagler was my favorite fighter back then. I never cared for Leonards fighting style but was glad he was around.
In round 9 that is when Muhammad Ali came out of Sugar Ray
I still give the edge to Leonard 7-5 and Marvin is my favorite fighter ever
Leonard played cat and mouse in every possible way. The ring, the gloves, and then of course the fight itself.
RIP Marvin 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ray all day Ring General out boxed Marvin
I scored it 115-113 for Hagler. You can't take someone's title fighting the way Leonard fought in my opinion.
Leonard danced around all night. That decision still pisses me off!
EXACTLY! That's not a champion, it's long been known and respected even amongst the judges that you don't give a boxer with a questionable performance the title. I will never get over how much Leonard held the whole damn fight, I have never seen anything like it from any boxer EVER! Then, to give a boxer that performed like that the title, that's just WRONG!
@@rowdyrx6109 It's one thing to box and move, or dance and fight, but this was just dance and run with the occasional padded flurry. Shoot, this was why De La Hoya wasn't given the victory over Felix Trinidad. Everyone knew he won, but he danced away from the fight and it wasn't seen as competitive. Yet here we have SRL, winning a CHAMPIONSHIP for fighting that way the whole fight. Simply disgusting!
@@rowdyrx6109y que querias ? q se ponga frente a el a los golpes como Hearns .Sugar es Inteligente. lo boxeo y lo dejó en Ridiculo .
Sugar gano la mayoria de rounds
@@TechieTardwhat Sugar did its called stragety. clever. smart he is .
hagler couldnt cacht him ...sugar outbox him...he made Hagler looked like an Amateur.
I’m a Duran fan .. but imo Leonard won the fight .. at no point was Leonard in trouble . And was clever enough to steal rounds by last 10 seconds flurry’s which were going in at 10-10 rounds .. why didn’t Marvin pressure him enough ….
With excessive hugging, how could he ever be in trouble? He literally wont the fight by cheating his way to victory via excessive holding.
Rounds 1 to 4 Sugar ray leonard
Round 5 Marvin hagler
Round 6 Sugar Ray Leonard
Rounds 7 to 10 Marvin hagler (although the 10th round was very close could very easily score it for Leonard)
Round 11 Sugar ray Leonard
Round 12 Marvin hagler
114-114
Ray out boxed a puncher but not by allot.
I had this fight a draw
Hearns,mugabi,those two fights broke hagler.....he looked tired,and lacked his usual ferocity here.still,at his best,the greatest ever.
19:18 Ivan Drago enjoying the fight in the back.
Hagler was the aggressor through the whole fight but he missed so many punches and that made Leonard look good. Leonard’s flashy faster punches every now and then impressed the judges more although it didn’t hurt Hagler. Leonard did enough to impress the non believers bu5 I’m not sure if it was enough to win the fight. Hagler probably won but considering he did so well against Hearns he didn’t look impressive enough.
Царствие Небесное, Марвину Хаглеру!
Se veía más cansado leonatd en el rou d 12 pero igual le dió un paseo a haglerd Leonard fue el fenómeno de su época un boxeador completo pegada rapidez fuerte quijada lo que le faltó a hearz
At 30 and 32 these guys already looked 40 and 42. Weird.
Cuanto respeto para esa dos leyenda dios mio
Hagler out jabbed Leonard and blocked most of his punches with his gloves,I just don't understand how you can win a fight going backwards and running the whole fight
Same Julio Cesar Chavez vs Pernell Whitaker.
@@josedominguez7249 I love Chavez but he definitely got gifted a couple fights I think the fight against p was a draw but sweet p won I think
@@UpChuckTheBoogie Julio Cesar Chavez out jabbed Pernell Whitaker and blocked most of his punches with his gloves,I just don't understand how you can win a fight going backwards and running the whole fight.
'''''''I love Chavez but he definitely got gifted a couple fights''''.
What are the fights
@@josedominguez7249 I have to watch it again from memory I thought Whittaker won.i thought the Frankie Randal fight Richard Steele kind of screwed the kid from Philly I can't remember his name and didn't something happen the first time he found fought oscar
@@josedominguez7249 I thought p did a better job against Chavez than Leonard did against hagler once hagler actually started pressing Leonard he won most of the rounds he he fought like that from the opening bell he would have won easily
Sugar Ray Leonard's excessive holding will always prove to me that he never wont this fight because he never actually boxed the entire fight. He held so much that Marvin couldn't fight. Now if anyone thinks that should be normal, you shouldn't be watching boxing. There was a time where excessive hugging in ONE round would cost you a point! Now, you can do it an entire fight and be called a CHAMPION? I mean, WTF!? Who in their right boxing mind thinks excessive holding is part of boxing!? In what Championship fight, has anyone ever seen this much HOLDING!?
Julio Cesar Chavez VS Pernell Whitaker.
This was easy to score 8-4 Leonard. Hagler waited too much for the perfect shot and paid for it.
Marvin couldn’t catch him long enough to put Ray down . Hagler closest chances came in the 5th and 9 th rounds
Seen this fight at least 50 times,have Hagler winning 7 rounds to 5
The more I watch fights the more I realize the commentating and highlights in between rounds sells who they want to win. Hagler actually coulda have won this he landed a lot more
I don’t see how anyone thinks Marvin won this fight. He gave all but 1 of the early rounds right away.
Well, you clearly don't know a thing about boxing if 3 judges gave him more than 1 round. Maybe you should just enjoy the fights on youtube and leave the comments for people that actually fight or at least understand boxing.
@@TechieTard dude he lost it was over 30 years ago pipe down and I do fight so how about you know who you are speaking to before you talk. You looking real lost out here.
@@TechieTardif you think Hagler won you don't know anything about boxing either
As Hagler was a fantastic natural middleweight fighting in his comfort zone against a blown up welterweight, he should have blasted Leonard out in seven rounds . Leonard Duran Hearns and Benitez all superb boxers fought successfully fighting outside their comfort zones winning titles. None of that for Hagler, he never fought Saad Muhammad. Leonard is like an SAS special forces thinking solider , he’s the thinking boxer. Leonard’s superior boxing brain boxing skill and super fast hands beat Haglers brute force. Brain beat brawn.
agree 100% percent
Damn that judge that scored it 118- 110 for Leonard should get the death penalty lol Leonard ran around the ring for most of the fight I thought he was a nascar drive with all them laps he took lol but smart on him he knew better not to meet him in the middle he learned from sutra. hagler was pressing him all fight after round 4 it was all hagler Leonard was gased.
118-110 is crazy but had it a draw could of gone either way
Hagler fights going to the judges, most times were unfavorable even as a champ. I never seen Marvelous ever being shook up from a punch. It was said he had a very hard skull! He was amazing. It used to be back in the day where you had to literally knockout the champion to become the champion...except if you were Ray Leonard. And to make it worse Leonard did not agree to 15 rounds, needed a ring the size of a 2 bedroom apartment, and never gave a rematch to Marvelous
Duran didn't knock Ray Leonard didn't even have him in trouble lost the last three rounds of a close and still won so I guess this evened it out
Semplicemente meravigliisoooooo
Hagler non ha mai perso questo incontro
Leonardo boxed his ears off
Hagler Leonard vaporwave edition
All you people talking he ran y’all couldn’t last one min in the ring
What a fight remember it went. I had Leonard winning. Out of the 12 rounds Leonard clearly won 5 and Hagler 2. The 5th and the 9th clearly Hagler’s That leaves 5 close rounds. If you favoured Hagler in those you give the fight 7-5 for Hagler. If you favoured Leonard in close rounds you give it to him.
Hagler great boxer😢 finesse power and the likes.. bad tactican he lost this fight plain and simple....
Draw
Leonard camp out smart Hagler camp agreeing to terms with Leonard camp that's it
Pongan a Canelo a ver pelea así para que vea lo que es peliar

Run sugar ray run!
run and box ..SRL won the fight because he was Clever .
Hagler simply couldn't cacht him
wow ! Richard Steele reffed a horrible fight. I had it 114-114. Sugar shoulda been stopped and warned then deducted 1pt by round 4. Plus it used to be if a round drawed the aggressor was given a 10-9 round. Hagler won the fight.
Mí opinión es que leonard fue mejor como maradona que yo vi.
Mas maraming solid na punches si hagler😢😢😢
Hagler was robbed. So was Thomas Hearns.
Hagler won this fight. End of discussion. Leonard was flashy. Missed most of his punches. 7/5 Hagler. That’s it.
Leonard won
had hagler winning
Ripped off

Boxing is fixed has been for years
Hi since your into fix fights there’s a fab film called The harder they fall. It stars Humphrey Bogart and Rod Steiger . It’s based in the 1950s about fixed fights ,fighters taking dives . Promoters and mangers making loads of money of the poor boxers. Ex heavyweight champs Jersey Joe Walcott and Max Baer appear in it a couple of times. It’s an excellent movie 8/10. Regarding the Hagler Leonard fight. Even though Leonard was a blown up welterweight compared to a natural middleweight in Hagler fighting in his comfort zone, Leonard won. Leonard boxing brain boxing skill and super fast hand speed beat haglers brute force. Brain beat brawn.
It was a draw... that's fact.
Hagler won the fight Leonard won the boxing match.
Hagler won this 8-4
Ir hacia adelante no significa que fue superior. El boxeo y la calidad de golpes de Sugar fueron superior. Por poco, pero fué mejor.
hagler na pas gagner,

The whole fight was a joke , sugar waited till hglers skills diminished, he was afraid to fight hagler in his prime.
