I disagree it was a very close fight which i had a draw, SRL faded badly down the stretch. But i don't really want to bring it up, because it will open up a can of worms.

But SRL would of been stopped had it been a 15 round fight, like it was supposed to be until SRL got it changed, he also demanded the gloves. The ring size ETC.

SRL waited until Marvin Hagler had slowed then, then chose the right moment, and not only that he also got everything he wanted, which would be in favor of a master boxer like himself.
a draw?? Hagler lost the first 3 rounds. which mean he had to win 7 of the last 9 rounds. most of his shots were missed. and SRL timed him perfectly when the round was about to end. it wasnt one sided but i felt he clearly beat Hagler.

now i will watch the fight again and rescore it.
Well you can't imply that me having it a draw, is some sort of shock. Considering how controversial the fight is, its the most debated decision in boxing history.

After the 4th round Marvin Hagler won a majority of the rounds, and was working for most of the rounds. SRL would try and steal rounds with flashy flurries, which wern't really effective as they were mostly slapping shots.
