    Oscar in his peak had a much more better chance of beating Leonard than Floyd .

    Still not much chance, given Leonard's advantage in pretty much every category.

    Hahaha I was wondering what fight they were watching too. Also Senior's arm was broken is only corraborated by him and even if true is solely his own fault. The way he was shelling up and throwing his straight right makes me doubt his story.

    People like to say Floyd Sr gave Leonard a hard time, whilst in reality, Leonard beat the breaks off Floyd Sr.

    Im not sayin he would beat Leonard

    Just sayin Compared to floyd , Oscar chances are greater .

    Leonard wont have no respect for Floyds very limited workrate and defensive style . In front of Leonard would have also been one of the lightest punchers hes ever faced .

    Sugar overwhelms Floyd with activity and handspeed till he drops or the ref stops it .

    Oscar on the other hand , is the same size as Leonard 5,10 no one has the size advantage here . Oscar has an excellent accurate left hook , respectable workrate , decent hand speed , Pretty good punching power (at least enough to get Sugars respect) Unlike Mayweather , Oscar possesses a cast iron jaw so hes not going to mind getting hit to land his own punches .

    Leonard is more likely to lose to Prime Oscar , than Floyd . But I pick Leonard to win over both .

    Roger Mayweather's opinion on Floyd Jr against Leonard, Duran and Hearns.

    Didn't Floyd Sr. get shot in the leg or something like that long before the Leonard fight?

    It is possible, but I would give SRL the edge.

    SRL was pretty raw in that fight, as was FMS. SRL progressed into being monster though. A serious finisher.

    On another note, THOSE are REAL welterweights. Guys with not an ounce of body fat weighing in at 146 and change. FMJ is not that big.

    anyone that thinks floyd gets destroyed is ******ed. he loses at WW but if guys like Dicky Eklund can go the the distance vs Leonard then it's pretty safe to say Floyd does as well. Leonard would win a competetive UD on a higher work rate.

    15 rounds I can SRL landing something good and finishing him.

    Or maybe you're right and he lasts the whole 15. Both are highly likely.

    floyds faster a better defender a better counter puncher and an all around more talented fighter. he would win 8-9 rounds ray ray would never beat floyd
