Leonard v Benitez

Hey, I finally see a post where I get to disagree with the Master!
Man, that fight was way too entertaining to have been a chess match. By the 11th or so round, those two were glued forehead to forehead center ring --in a virtual phonebooth.

Ray had to bring the dog out and pounded out a victory.

I need to watch it again then but to me it was like a mirror match where they knew what each other was going to do and it was cagey.

True. Even Ray stated years later that he felt like Benitez was a mirrored image of himself.
Maybe I have gotten accustomed to anti-chess match fans calling that style of fight boring.
Nothing boring about Leonard vs. Benitez

And on the Nunn note, -Same here LOL, I thought Tate got schooled by Nunn.
What I do need to watch again, was the reffing towards the end, Wasn't there a bogus count where Nunn should have won earlier?
