    Ray would be the man, not boring. However, he would have to explain the Johnny Gill connection.

    Ray rubbed him the right way.

    I'm not a Leonard fan, but he was a great fighter that was never boring.

    My my my, Johnny thought Ray Looked Good that night.

    After they met, a New Edition of Johnny came out and he went from a Boy to a Man.

    Yeah. He'd be tough to deal with in negotiations, but I think the fights would still get made.

    At least the prime Leonard.

    There isn't anybody from 147-160 today would have a snowball's chance in Hell at beating a prime Leonard.

    Good point ! He was tough at the table,negotiating ! But, in the end his confidence (arrogance) would lead him to take them all on, and beat them as well...

    Not likely. And Mayweather would tone it down a notch. Maybe.

    x2.

    It amazes me how anyone could put Leonard, and boring in the same sentence.

    Personally I agree with Foxy can't see how Sugar Ray Leonard and the word boring can be mentioned in the same sentence.

    Great points ! One thing you could count on with Leonard is that he would bring it and he always made for exiting fights...Right on with that Foxy an VH !
