    Default Leonard-Hagler rematch

    If it had come off one year later, what would have happened?

    knowing leonard, there would never be another one.

    remember what happend after the first leonard - hearns. hearns was calling out leonard for an immediate rematch but leonard was too busy to entertain hearns.

    Hagler would get some perceived justice ala Morales/Barrera and Lewis/Holyfield and win on points.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hagler having felt he deserved the win would have KO'd Leonard mid rounds in the rematch

    Tough one but I'd go for Leonard again. Remember he had 3 years of rust and still won.

    Or you could say the Leonard was three years fresher and he caught Hagler after two wars with Hearns and Mugabi.

    Leonard didn't win the fight. Hagler lost it and let Leonard steal it. I'm not disputing the result, but in a rematch, Hagler would not have done something stupid and come out conventional like he did in the first one. He also wouldn't have literally given away 4 rounds before getting started. He would have wanted destroy him. Too bad the fight was only twelve rounds. If it was for 15, Leonard would have been KO'd in the first fight.

    Funny, because if the Hearns fight was 12, Leonard would have lost.
