Benitez/Duran/Hagler/Hearns/Leonard- let's sort it out.

[Beanflicker]

Leonard did not "beat Hearns twice". His official record against Tommy is 1-0-1.

Treating it as 1-1 is justified imo. To be fair, putting more weight on the first fight, since they were both in their prime, is also justified.

But treating their rivalry as 2-0 for Leonard is not.

Agreed, Hearns won the 2nd fight and got robbed.

But like you alluded to, the first fight is the important one and Leonard came out on top.

1. Leonard
2. Hagler
3. Hearns
4. Duran
