Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Thomas Hearns 2 | FREE FIGHT

We will never, ever, see fighters like this again. Ever. It's gone forever. Thank God for youtube.

Who all came back to watch this after seeing them on Hotboxin with Mike Tyson?

Tommy was just too nice a person to argue with the result. He won that fight, and everyone knows it.

Look how well the two treat each other after the fight. This is true sportsmanship.

Superb fighters. Power, skill, speed and heart all on display. Truly was a golden era. RIP Marvin.

This was a good rematch even though 8 years overdue, the crowds reaction to the horrible judges decision is priceless!

This was the best era in boxing. Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Duran.....Just so many great fighters in this weight class at that time.

Great fight. Agree with those who say Hearns won. Still, what a battle. Leonard's combination in the fifth was incredible.

Both Hearns and Leonard were past their peaks at this point, but I don't ever recall two boxers who matched up so evenly against each other. The speed and boxing ability of Leonard, the raw power and explosive punching ability of Hearns. They definitely put on two all time classic matches.

I love the feeling from watching other Hearns fights the he thinks it's over at 9:34. And then you have another 40 minutes from these two legends. Spectacular.

Two incredible warriors! I sure miss those days. This guys are both extremely talented professional fighters. One of the best fights I have seen. Both guys are great

One of the greatest fights ever by two of the greatest fighters ever! We don't see these types of fights these days too often.

Mad respect to these 2 boxers.

Both boxers a little past their peaks but still put on a great show. Hearns was robbed of course and showed great humility and class not to have ranted and raged at the injustice he suffered that night. Boxing’s greatest era in my opinion.

Jamás habrá una calidad de boxeadores como en aquella época, era una época de titanes, boxeaban con el corazón.

Sugar in recent years was a big enough man to admit Tommy won this fight. Props to him. Greatest era of boxing IMO. Im from Detroit & was a huge Hearns fan, actually saw him in somewhat of a dive bar in a suburb of Detroit about 6 wks ago. He was eating lunch as I was, got a fist bump from him, made my life !

Hearns was incredibly humble in the post fight interview. That always impresses me almost as much as the fight itself.

The snap in Hearns’s jab was just crazy. It was like Larry Holmes’s jab but faster. Hearn’s weaknesses were his legs and his lax defense, but dude was still a killer.

🤔Even though Sugar Ray Leonard was BY FAR the media darling / favorite back then, the truth was Tommy Hearns was actually the classy one of the two.. and the toughest one ! 💪

I came up boxing in the area where Ray Leonard’s gym is, and I’ve met him a bunch of times. But I’m pretty tall and lean for my weight class so I modeled a lot of my style on Tommy Hearns. I had a conversation with Ray one time about watching tape on the greats and taking everything I could from their matches. He asked me which fighter I thought my style was most like and I told him that it was Tommy. He said that I picked a great fighter to emulate and told me not to forget about Tommy’s most important attribute which he considered to be his heart and determination. Seeing them together on Mike Tyson’s podcast was awesome for me, I have the upmost respect for both of these great champions (and for Iron Mike as well, obviously).
