I suspect Leonard was feeling the physical effects of Leonard/Hagler a lot more than Hagler a week later
Hagler also got paid 8 mil more than Leonard for the fight, 20 mil to 12 mil, so yeah, I guess he did come out better.
Yup. Back then being the champion actually meant more than being the A-side... what a concept! If Leonard-Hagler happened in 2018, Leonard would make 100 mil and Hagler like 15.
Ali-Frazier 1 absolutely. Joe won but took so much punishment and went on to lose the rematch and the thriller.
yeah exactly. There's nothing to suggest that Leonard was worse off than Hagler. It was a pretty low damage fight and both of them finished pretty much unscathed
I am pretty sure Sal Sanchez was on a motorcycle. James Dean was in the Porsche. EDIT: Wikipedia says a Porsche,but I read an account, in a book no less, of how he was on a motorcycle, attempted to pass a car, and hit an oncoming cement truck, and was identified by his dental records.
Corrales-Castillo 1? I remember Michael Katsidis beat some guy on the Hopkins-Wright undercard and Katsidis looked fucked up.
