LOL! I got a love/hate relationship with him as the boxer. I think I started to turn on him, when it took 8 years to rematch Hearns. & the fact it was a draw, was horrible. Then later found out that Aaron Pryor called him out.- watching Legendary Nights the Tale of Leonard-Hagler. The smaller guy willing to move up & Ray wouldn't even mention The Hawk's name.

In fact as I write this, it was that episode that pissed me off to hear Ray only wanted Marvin when he saw Marvelous didn't really want it anymore-took him to dinner and listened to Marvin tell him this- and now he wants to fight him?


I figured he thought that Norris chin would fail- to which is why he chose the fight him, but as the fight went on, memories of watching Leonard fight reel-time as an amateur on regular tv made me feel sad that this was the end of an era that I watched from the beginning.
