Fight of the day

1987: Sugar Ray Leonard vs Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Las Vegas. Judge: Jose J. Guerra 118-110 | Judge: Lou Filippo 113-115 | Judge: Dave Moretti 115-113.

Guerra should have been drawn and quartered after the fight. I had no dog in the fight but even with Hagler blowing the first 2 by fighting right handed I cant get this beyond a draw for Leonard. He simply did not beat the undisputed champion.
