    Not at all. And I actually find Ross and Leonard's career somewhat similar. Expect Ross' is on steroids compared to Leonard's.

    Leonard can't, in any way imaginable, match Ross' resume's depth. Leonard usually beats most in Top Wins -- but even those dont compare to Ross'.

    He controversially beat Marvin Hagler. Amazing, I agree. But not more impressive than outclassing two men greater than Hagler (Canzoneri, McLarnin) 4 times.

    Nothing controversial about Leonard beating Hagler. Hags should've punched by round 7.

    Sorry I give the real divisions a better go than ******* divisions. as great as ross was at LW.

    It'd be like Leonard beating Benitez again & again for the 147 and 154 lb titles a few times over. WE GET IT.

    Lol. Honestly, if Leonard beat, say, Benitez 3 or 4 times. I'd give Leonard the same credit each and every time. Just like I do with Ross. Just saying.

    But there both studs. I still like Ross' depth.

    Turbo shut the **** up and stop letting bias rule.

    Ross is greater than Leonard. Shut it.

    I wouldn't be disgusted if McClarnin was argued to be greater than Ray Leonard, and he's the lesser of the trio.

    As for your 'fighting them multiple times proves nothing' jive talk Turbo, I agree. I mean, what would proving his superiority over Hearns a second time prove, oh, wait....

    Not getting drawn into a never ending argument but I really have to laugh at leonard fans that carry on as if the hagler that fought leonard was an active top of his game fighter . Hagler had slipped quite considerably and had really semi- retired himself

    Hearns April 15th 85
    Mugabi march 10th 86
    Leonard April 6th 87

    Has nothing to do with fandom. I'm HARDLY a Leonard fan. I just appreciate what he did
