Man that Hearn's jab was one of boxing's best.
Yes indeed followed by that dynamite right hand 😡
i feel dirty after hearing the decision.
Man o man top rank is on a huge streak of making us fans happy with these classics… thank you
Plenty more to put out. The TR Vault is STACKED
@@toprank well if you please do me the honour of uploading any of the Rafael Marquez vs Israel Vasquez fights… I and everyone else would be forever grateful…. (If they was under the top rank banner) 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@topranksttop running your mouth and put them out
Greatful for your sharing these epics fights. Thank you.
It’s OK if Suger Ray is the darling of fair weather boxing fans BUT it’s not OK for him to be the darling of any judge. Damn I love Marvelous.
They can will and have fixed a boxing match
Yes they have and sometimes were so obvious about the fix they didn’t care how it appeared. I watch a lot of Olympic boxing in the Cold War era and it was laughable at times how decisions were political.
@@tommywingate7186 a lot of Americans and other countries were cheated out of medals in multiple events 👍😡
Hern’s won clearly
Top Rank delivers with the great fights
Greatest of their time, Leonard, Hearnes n Duran I love them
Hagler, Benitez, Pryor and Arguello
Hagler no.1
Hearns really won the rematch forreal
Yes indeed
Yes waited 8 years and still had problems out of hearns
Never can go wrong with a 4 kings fight 😬💪🏽
Got to add Mike McCallum
@@anthonyrivera557 and Aaron Pryor
And Aaron Pryor
Clear Hearns win tbh. Took no fewer than 6 rounds (arguably 7), plus two knockdowns. Ray just had that flash to him man. I swear he could hypnotize judges with it.
Apparently, knockdowns don't count for corrupted judges. But I know the reasons behind the so-called "DRAW"...do a third rematch of these two great fighters to bring fans and 💰 to the Strip.
Great to see the sportsmanship at the end
Thanks Top Rank
Leonard said numerous times that he lost that fight
A great action fight. Might be the first time I've watched it since the original broadcast. Hearns was widely considered to be shot coming into this and though he performed a lot better than expected did still show signs that this was the case. He struggled to fight off the back foot - usually a sign that a fighter's legs are going - and couldn't get off with his shots as fluently as he had in the past. He also tired quite a bit by the middle rounds, though in fairness this was a tough fight and as the telecast mentioned, staged in 90 degrees heat. Leonard looked like an ageing fighter. Gone were the rapid combinations that he'd shown 27 months earlier against Hagler. He was slower, easier to hit and although he lasted the 12 rounds better than Hearns he also found it tough to fight at a good pace consistently.
Neither were what they'd been, making this a grueling slug-fest, rather than a truly elite quality fight. Hearns would amazingly carry on for another 17 years, though he'd win only one other major fight, for the WBA Light Heavy title against Virgil Hill in 1991.After losing his rematch against Iran Barkley the following year - a fight in which he definitely looked finished - the rest of his career felt like an irrelevance.
This would be Leonard's last somewhat good performance. He looked awful in winning a boring, lopsided decision over a slow Roberto Duran 6 months later, one of the worst "big" fights I've ever seen (he'd average just 36.5 punches per round - his tactics consisting of circling Duran outside of punching range for almost the whole non-event). Duran, meanwhile landed an average of 7 shots per round, completely squandering the momentum that his win over Barkley had gained him. That fight encapsulated the growing pointlessness of the "Senior's Tour" period of late-80s boxing. 14 months later Leonard would drop down to Light-Middleweight and be totally outclassed by WBC champion Terry Norris. A foolish comeback attempt in 1997 would see him embarrassingly stopped for the first and last time of his career in 5 rounds by ageing, blown-up former Super Featherweight and Lightweight champion Hector Camacho.
RIP MARVELOUS/ MARVIN HAGLER....CHAMP
8 rounds for Tommy.
Tommy won by eight points. What a disgrace.
😊
This was one of the best fights I’ve ever seen. It was close and the judges got it right.
Hitman was skipping leg day
Hearns reach advantage was sick... That's what boxers feared the most getting hit with that devastating right hook Tommy was so known for 😊
How do you have a draw when Hearns had two knockdowns?
Ray did lose this one
Simple maths if the other guy wins enough of the rounds outside of those knockdowns. I mean Hearns should probably have got this, but it's not the highway job people claim it is.
@@chriswilliamson7694 the knock down is 10 8 round both of them sugar ray was way behind in the fight thus needed a knockout to win which he didn't get
@@chriswilliamson7694 that is true but that didn't happen in this case hearns was well ahead on points and rounds won
Because the crooked refs the sporting books betting line and Mafia said so 🤣☝️
I was in Hearns' corner that night. We wuz robbed!!
@@oscarisraelcascocasco4475 Si
Hearns absolutely 100% got robbed!!
I like the legend fighter Sugar Ray Leonard.
Sugar ray lost before the bell even rang with those goofy trunks
That's funny
They're from the " Rocky Balboa" collection.
Looks like a circus tent
@@jerardnorgren3411 that's funny
That combination by Hearns starting at 41:20 is just awesome and absolutely annihilated Leonard. As Leonand picked himself up off the canvas at 41:30 the weary look in his eyes tells you that he knows that Hearns was the better fighter.
MIGHTY FINE FIGHT
Tommy got that rematch.
I felt like he was robbed tbh.
Yes but they didn't give it too him
Can yall upload JulioCesar Chavez vs Pernell Whitaker !!!!
That's not a Top Rank fight
@@sandpeat then who
Don King promoted that. Not us
GREATEST ROBBERY OF ALL TIME!!!
it was a draw and I respect the referees of the time they really did a great job and love the boxers respect for one another they are real gentlemen
*INCREDIBLE FIGHT I JUST WISH THEY DIDN’T DO THOMAS “HITMAN” HEARNS DIRTY, BECAUSE HE WON THE FIGHT!!!!*
No
TOMMY JUST WAS NOT SHARP IN THIS FIGHT -- NOT LIKE HE HAS BEEN -- OUT OF SYNCH OR SOMETHING -- BUT YEAH - I THINK HE WON TOO
Shut up and watch the fight
YOU LOVE YOU SOME SUGAR RAY RABBIT ?@@JoelCrump-uc9by
@@JoelCrump-uc9by No need to be rude.
Una pelea donde las 2 caídas a favor de Hearns debieron ser la diferencia en puntos.
Hears is very powerful for only 6 or 7 rounds but if someone hit him hard in the head he is very weak to recovery
Never was on Sugar Ray bandwagon 😴. Was disappointed when I heard about the fight. Remember Hearns eventually saying he was robbed
Omg this is a shame…….I always thought it was 1-1
Needed couple more rounds or it would of been a repeat of 1981.Hearns was in trouble last round.
These guys didn't have to fight again
But they did and it was Agrippa fight .
Tommy should have got the nod. No doute.
This was a great fight
From veterans.
I love tommy though.
Maybe. Should have doubled his jab in first few rounds with the right followed up. Might have finished it.
Tommy should have got his hands raised in this fight no doubt about it
LOL I love Marvin Hagler’s commentary.
He’s literally seething with resentment throughout the whole fight, still pissed off at Leonard.
RIP Marvelous
Yeah, was certainly pulling for Hearns all the way through 😀
I loved his commentary too. "Nah, Ray never hurt me."
"GO ON TOMMY!!"
"I told Bob Arum- Maybe 20 million will do it for me"- A 20 mil bribe to the judges to beat the money maker Ray, he meant.
You have to take the Championship and Ray didn't do that against Hagler...Another rip off...Plus Hearns knocks Ray down twice and it's a draw? As much as I liked Ray, I thought he was given extra nice treatment being the poster boy..He hung around too long.. As do most fighters...Probably should have beat Norris and certainly would have beat Camacho when in his prime...Still a great fighter..
Marvin don't hate Leonard hate the game ☝️🤣
@@scottthurman6135 ray was too old in both fights
I think Ray came back in the fight he took it to hearns ,few more minutes and i think Ray would have knocked him out or the Ref, would stop the beating .Hearns was def. taking a beating in the last round .
Sugar Ray is certainly a great boxing talent but these lopsided decisions giving him a win or a draw greatly diminishes that. He was down twice in this fight. Hearns won this fight. And the little pretty boy Sugar still thinks he won. LOL
Ray has ego out of this world
Hearns was robbed !!! Sugar Ray later admitted that he did not win this fight and that makes him a man in my book
Young Sugar is so fast he looks like when my cats fight.
this video is sped up
The real man association
Tekenal pertarungan yg bersih & seru
Lenard said herns won
Que peleas inolvidables con estos boxeadores. Ya nunca más serán como en esos tiempos
Quem ganhou?
Ini juga pertarungan Legendaris spt Moh. Ali lawan Foreman.
Had the first loss not happened the way it did Tommy wouldn’t have been so reticent
What champions
The holding was not recognized by judges..i would have given the w to Leonard for certain..
การชกไฟท์ที่ 2 ของ ซูการ์ เรย์ เลียวนาร์ด กับ โธมัส เฮิร์น เป็นการชกล้างตาของ เฮิร์น ที่ครั้งแรก แพ้น็อคเลียวนาร์ดในยกที่ 14 หลังจากทำคะแนนนำห่างมา ใน 12 ยกแรก แต่ เฮิร์น ไม่ค่อยเคยชกมวยสากลอาชีพเกิน 6 ยก จึงทำให้โดนพายุหมัดของเลียวนาร์ด บดขยี้ในยก 13 และ 14 แทบหายใจไม่ทัน ออกอาการเหนื่อยอย่างเห็นได้ชัดเจน และพ่ายน็อคไปอย่างน่าเจ็บปวดกระดองใจ ส่วนการชกในไฟท์ที่ 2 เลียวนาร์ดโดนกำปั้นของเฮิร์น นับ 8 ถึง 2 ครั้งคือในยกที่ 3 และ 11 แต่เฮิร์นกลับ น็อคเลียวนาร์ดไม่ลง แถมยกท้ายๆ เจอหมุดฮุคทั้งซ้ายและขวาของเลียวนาร์ดเกือบเอาตัวไม่รอด ทำให้เสมอกันไปแบบ เฮิร์นน่าจะชนะเพราะได้ 2 นับ ตามที่กล่าวมาในข้างต้น ซึ่งทั้งคู่ เป็นแชมป์โลก 5 รุ่น ใครได้รับการชูมือ ก็จะเป็นแชมป์เปี้ยนโลกที่สมบูรณ์แบบ และบันทึกไว้ในตำนานมวยโลก ในทศวรรษ ที่ 80
The first knocked down was questionable being that the punch seemed to go behind Ray neck but the second knock down I still can't understand how Ray got up
Hearns 115, Leonard 112. Poor decision by the judges here.
Hagler HATED Ray!!! He was pulling for Hearns and he called Ray dirty several times. Hilariously biased commentary!!! 🤣😂🤣. RIP Marvelous 🙏🏽
Most people don't like being cheated.
@@phill2035Hagler wasn't cheated he got his ass whooped by someone he thought he was better than and his pride wouldn't allow him to accept defeat
thomas hearnes , won , no doubt leonard is a super boxer , but tis 1 , its very clear thomas hearnes
Why is it slightly sped up?!?
Its not. Compare the round counter to the video timer.
It's not.
Biggest robbery ever.
Two knockdown equals six points plus two rounds Equals Big Eight, is the Difference. What a big robbery in boxing...
the best judge dcision in boing history
The bout is robbery
Tommy was robbed. This was a really entertaining fight, but what really sticks out for me, is just how much their skills had eroded since their previous clash, in 1981 (8 years, as you would expect). Good old Ray, only risking the rematch when all the world thought The Hitman was shot... 😂
The MAFIA won this one.
That's right tough guy 😅
before this fight Hearns had been KO`d by Barkeley and knocked down by James kinchen - SRL figured Hearns was finished and ripe for the taking and thats why he granted the Rematch at this time - but he was wrong Tommy rolled back the years and should have got the decision
this video looks sped up
Surgar fights back. Makes hearns mad.
The Motor City Cobra won that fight, PERIOD!!!
no brainer...SRL won it fair and square right to the bitter end!
Pity hearns rob of his gain.
What hitman what it's the cobra hearns
Tommy was robbed in the verdict, but when you look at the size of the two guys, especially across the shoulders, it looks like he had two weight classes over Ray.
They weighed the same but Thomas is 6 1
Ray would have got him in the 13th
If only boxing now was a fraction of this time right here... 🤌🏾
Esa pelea la ganó Tommy.
Leonard wobbled Hearns in 5th.Leonard got knocked down in third but really was more of a push down but was effected by a right hand prior to that.I thought is was a very close fight.If it was another 15 round fight .Leonard would of KOd him in 13 or 14.They had even exchangesLeonard wobbled Hearns at end of 9th left hook.11th round Hearns with knockdown.Hearns in deep trouble in 12th took punishment needed another round so Leonard could finish him.I gave Hearns an edge for the 2 knockdowns but he was lucky it wasnt another 15 round fight.
Q luta incrível pura técnica de dois maiores boxeadores mundial
Sugar Ray Leonard is the king if the ring all time
lol no
Well... sh*t gets stolen in the hood and Hearns just got robbed.
El unico logro de hearns fue terminar el ultimo round de pie
HEARNS WON! 💯
Marwin Haggler
How do you knock someone down tWICE and get a draw????..Knockdowns are 10-8 rounds and Hearns had a better percentage..
Great fight. Definitely a draw.
Ray lost this fight. He knows it too.
Great fight but lousy commentator.
How Ray Leonard always gets these types of decisions is beyond me. Other than 3 big rounds he had in this fight he lost atleast 8 rounds with 1 even. And 2 of the 8 rounds I scored for Hearns were 10-8 rounds. How do you get 112-112? The judges were obviously either blind or paid. You have to knock Ray out or get robbed in Vegas. Same with Floyd Mayweather who lost by 2 points to Jose Castillo and also lost to DelaHoya by 3 on my scoring but he was given the decision in both those fights. Boxing sadly has always been corrupt and still is. That is why I stopped following boxing and canceled my Ring and KO magazine subscriptions.
Like fighting a bully sugar punches back.
Tommy was a spent fighter look at him now he can hardly speak
Crooked judges Tommy won
Hearns won. Period.
They both look old
Herns was robbed a victory the same way Hagler was robbed. This is why I don’t watch boxing anymore
Hagler full of shit. Clearly going for Hearns because Leonard just beat him.
Sugar ray media made hero
Thomas never been accepted.
American boxing tricks.
Mayweather media made clown boxer
Miserable boxing association and commentators like i say this is all about bets
SUGAR TERDUDUK DAN UNTUNG ENGK PIPIS DLM CELANA KENA HANTAMAN PUKULAN PETIR YG MENYENGAT.
😅😅
This was a complete disgrace...the judges were just like Trump supporters, duped by Leonard. Ray even admitted in his book that Tommy won...imagine if the situation were reversed...down TWICE in the fight and completely outclassed in the early rounds. Terrible!!! The one satisfying take away is that Hearns has seemingly known since then that he beat the shit out of Leonard. This is also what I've taken away but, damn, it should have been his decision to walk away as the winner. Leonard of course was a great fighter but he totally underestimated Tommy here and got his ass beat as a result...
Hearns won
Bullshit. Hearns won. I am an "expert."
