Leonard v Hagler II. Leonard by a wider decision. Hagler would not have gotten faster 4-5 months later.

Hagler v Hearns II. Hagler in another brutal KO.

Hagler v Duran II. If Hagler fights with usual ferocity, he wins by stoppage inside of 5. If he fights the way he did against Duran in there actual bout, same result as the first time.

Hearns v Duran II. Hearns by KO inside of 8, he's got the faster hands, and a big advantage in reach and power.

Leonard v Benitez II. Leonard by clear decision or late stoppage again.

Benitez v Duran II. Benitez by another close but clear decision. However if the rematch is a couple years later Duran probably stops him inside of 10, since he aged more gracefully.

Hearns v Benitez II. Hearns by an even wider decision or late stoppage,

Leonard vs Hagler 2

A toss up. Hagler would have pulled it all together for 1 more fight and fought differently. Leonard would still be quicker but looking to survive down the stretch. It would be closer than the first fight.

Hearns vs Hagler 2

Over 12 Hearns could have nicked it, over 15 hagler wins by stoppage

Duran vs Hagler 2

Hagler by a wider decision

Hearns vs Duran 2

Hearns on points

Benitez vs Leonard 2

Leonard mid to late rounds KO

Benitez vs Duran 2

Closer than the first but Benitez should win it again.

Benitez vs Hearns 2

Hearns possibly by stoppage.

Leonard -v- Hagler 2 - Leonard on a wide points decision. Hagler was slower than Frank Bruno in a molasses bath in the 1st fight, he would have looked like he was on pause in a rematch! :o

Duran -v- Hagler 2 - Hagler on points. It would be like the first fight.

Hearns -v- Duran 2 - Hearns on points. It would probably be the only time that Duran would be scared in a fight. He would be a lot more cagey, but his short squat stance would leave him at a disadvantage against the beanpole Hearns.

Benitez -v- Leonard 2 - Leonard on points. Can't see much of a difference from the 1st fight.

Benitez -v- Duran 2 - Benitez on points easliy. Too slick for Duran at these higher weights.

Benitez -v- Hearns 2 - I fancy Hearns on a mid - late rounds TKO in rematch.

I guess I'm pretty much in agreement with Seamus.
Assuming that there was an immediate rematch, it's doubtful that there would be much difference than in the fights that did happen.

Leonard-Hagler, Leonard wouldn't be as rusty and would perform even better. Leonard by decision.

Hearns-Hagler, Herans may try to win on points and out jab Hagler. It would last longer, but eventually Hagler gets to him and knockout Hearns out again.

Duran-Hagler, Hagler would probably perform better and win easier this time. Hagler by late TKO or easy decision.

Hearns-Duran, May go a few more rounds, but Hearns is going to knock him out.

Benitez-Leonard, Repeat of first fight, may go the distance as the first one almost did.
Benitez-Duran, Benitez again by decision.
Benitez-Hearns, Hearns again by decision.

None of the fights that took place were flukes, and there isn't much reason to think the rematches would be diifferent. Of course, a guy who won the first fight could have an off night in the rematch.
However, the odds are that the results would be pretty much the same.

Same as before

I think would have all been repeats of the first time. No reason to think otherwise. Possible exception would be Hagler/Leonard. In a rematch Marvin like it was said previously might have come charging out full bore (like the Hearns fight) with radically different results.
