The Brawl in Montreal: 40 Years Later

[elmersalsa]

Frazier went in the hospital after TFOTC.

Yes, he did but Smokin' Joe gave him a good ol' ass whupping! He whupped Ali fair and square.

. The most hurt he ever was in his career.

by a long way too. nobody ever teed the fvck off on Leonard like Duran did that night, when he had him on the ropes it was fearsome stuff.

I scored it 144-140 for Duran. 9 rounds to 6 with the 2nd Round 10-8 for Duran.
I certainly could find two close rounds that I gave Duran that could have gone the other way and made it a draw at 142-142. Would not be that hard to score it for Leonard. elmer scored it for Duran by 3 points but somehow calls it a "whoopin".

Y you score it for glancing punching over clean punching dough?

Each round is different. You have to weigh it. Some rounds, Leonard did not land many clean punches, and Duran landed a lot of his glancing Blows, on the break etc. stuff. Some rounds Leonard did land enough. Many rounds it was hard to say.

This was pretty interesting. I happened to look at scorecards by tow people (ZARJ and JVVL95). They were right by each other.
Each scored it for Duran 143-142.
However, look at the individual rounds. They each scored the first four rounds the same way. After that, they disagreed on 6 of the last 11 rounds!
One gave Leonard 3 rounds that the other guy gave Duran, and vice versa.

In another words, there were only 4 rounds they both gave Leonard, and only 5 rounds that they both gave Duran.
This is another indication of how difficult it was to judge this fight.
