I had to mute it so I could shut Howard Cosell up! He literally sat there and commentated a fight HE WASN'T WATCHING! Claiming Leonard was "having a difficult time" with Limasov, when he had him figured out about 30 seconds into the fight, and halfway through the first round, Limasov was tentative because Ray's counters were so effective! With Cosell, you often find yourself saying, "What fight is HE watching?"
Howard wanted to project the image of objectivity to a point of silliness. The Russian fighter was obviously excellent, but I was hard pressed to see him winning any round.
Oj Simpson: "What Sugar Ray needs to do, Howard, is get a knife and come up behind Limasov and cut his throat and then find Limasov's girlfriend and cut her throat to".
Surprised the USSR boxer did not go on to fame in pro boxing. Sugar Ray is considered one of the finest boxers in history and the rooskie fought him almost to a draw. That long right lead hand was tough to go against, and lefties are considered tough to fight.
Professional sports were banned in the Soviet Union for political reasons (the same way it still is in Cuba now, that's why Cuban boxers have to defect to the US if they want to turn pro), that explains why so many talented Soviet fighters never joined the pro ranks.
I'm truly enjoying Ray's Olympic Games Fights, Amen, 🙏🙏🙏🙏🛐🛐🛐🛐thank 🤙🤙you ‼️‼️‼️‼️❕❕❕❕❗❗❗❗
The team is legendary
с самим Леонардом так рубаться, это очень круто.

If Cosell was one of the judges Ray would've lost
The best USA amateur in my humble opinion.
This is awesome

Thank you. I just watched this video, and kept thinking to myself, "What fight is Howard watching?" 🤣

USA-USSR-Super Sport!
Thanks for the video, COMBATBEAR82
The other guy was very very strong, he would have won against anyone, just faced a future champ and couldn't

@@MB-fo2sk It's surprising how many adult Americans seem ignorant to the fact Communist countries generally don't allow professional boxers.
Thanks for the upload!
This is a classic fight.
Good watching a professional beat up an amateur😂😅 🤣😂
And the amateur being Russian, Cuban and East German 👍🏽👍🏽👴
По силе ударов превосходит Лео, по тактике и технике, несомненно, Валера.....
По все статья уголек превосходит совета и по технике, по тактике, по пластике, по скорости, по выносливости, по силе.
What fight was Cosell watching? Leonard dominated the fight from the opening bell.
What were u watching? Limasov won the first round, the 3rd was very close. Sugar ray won but it was very close
@@danielmclean4844 close fight??? How
What ? That was a fight that could of went either way. Did you actually watch the fight ?
@@joshmillarich4916 I did. You must’ve dozed off for 2 rounds fool.
@@joshmillarich4916Stop the bullshit.
OJ who??
Mamma mia, quante gliene ha date....
У советских боксёров тогда ближний бой слабый был
у тяжей , Игоря Высоцкого , Заева он был совсем неплох
И сила удара слабая, тогда бокс был игровой, в основном левая/передняя рука рабочая.
Мало комбинаций, по 3-4 удара силовых!
The Russian did nothing.
Negative and boring.
He look good in red though 😅😂🤣😂😅😆
