I watched the Sugar Ray fight last night ...
Sugar won on points and looked unscathed BUT he was passing blood for three days afterwards !

The absolute Golden era for middleweight boxing.

Four of the all time greats all around at the same time and they all fought each other. Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran and Thomas the hitman Hearns.

True enough .... was Hagler a heavier weight than the other three ?

He looked about a stone heavier than Sugar Ray Leonard last night ... and thet were worried that the weight / muscle Leonard put on for the fight would slow him down apparently ... it clearly didn’t
