I dont have an opinion as to who won the bout cuz it's old news anyways but the thing that stands out the most to me everytime I watch this bout is how Leonard really has Hearns' number..
IT's funny because as a little kid, I was more of a Hearns fan and believed he got robbed in the rematch but as I got older and reviewed the fight few more times, only thing I can think of is how Ray had his number.
I say this because both fights played out pretty much the same way.. Hearns fights well in the beginning but starts to lose steam in the championship rounds when Ray starts to take over..
Hearns is lucky that the rematch was a 12 rounder cuz if it went 15, he would have got knocked out in a similiar fashion..
Leonard had his number and dudes just a superior fighter, period..
