I watched the fight "live" on closed circuit, at a theater in Houston, Texas, the quality was horrible, so even though Duran won a decision it was hard for 'me' to tell who had really won. A few years later I watched the fight again, and while i'll agree that it was a close fight, I still give Duran the nod, mainly because he was the aggressor, who initiated the action most of the fight. As for Leonard getting beaten up by Duran, not really, Ray got caught with some decent shots, but I don't think he was ever badly hurt during the fight.
