Park Memories: Leonard squeaks by Hagler
April 6, 2009
I’m going to try to post one of these “memories” every day. Let’s see if it lasts longer than three days.
The date: April 6, 1987
The place: Caesers Palace, Las Vegas, Nev.
The moment: “Sugar” Ray Leonard defeats Marvin Hagler via split decision.
A fight that is still being argued in barber shops across the country. A bitter Hagler would never fight again after claiming the judges robbed him of a victory.
