    Leonard, young Ali, Vilomar Fernandez (against Duran and Arguello, anyway).

    Edit: and Sweet Pea. Ran himself out of a win against Oscar and turned what should have been a shut-out against Ramirez into a robbery loss.

    The term "runner" to me is a guy who just tries to survive in a fight and not win in it when he's in any type of trouble. Therefore Ali and Whitaker would not be my picks. I would have to say someone like Marty Marshall.
