Looks like Holland's the one place on plent earth Honeyghan would have beat Leonard than.

Curry ahead of Holmes, Hearns and SRL not to mention countless others? He got hammered twice in the 80's as well as losing to Jacquot. One wonders if Honeyghan and McCallum are here for beating him. Hey, where's Jacquot!

He was also a terrible fighter, with something like a 23-9 record at the time of fighting Curry, with all 9 losses vs stiffs.

Good list I would probably have Chavez slightly higher but good to see Rosario in there.
