Sugar Ray Leonard vs Tommy Hearns, 1981

Just watched the first of the two fights between Sugar Ray and The Hitman Hearns - what a bout! It's the first time I've seen Sugar Ray box, and I was surprised at how beautifully he moves - stunning to watch. It was incredible how he came back from being behind on the scorecards in the 12th to getting the stoppage, but I have a feeling it was more to do with Hearns' lack of experience fighting in later rounds than Sugar Ray outboxing the guy. Interesting stuff!
