    I don't known about favor, but I'd give Hearns and Leonard a very realistic shot at pulling it off.

    I would love to see how mayweather would do against the great sugar ray. And personally I wouldn't know who to pick. I see it as a 50/50 fight. Because it's hard betting against a guy who's never lost.

    Stupid post. Just because he never lost? I guess he'd also beat prime Tyson using the same logic.

    **** tyson. All i'm sayin is him and robinson would be a great match up. And for the record, I have floyd pulling out with a W against the great sugar ray robinson whether it went 12 or 15 rounds.

    He wasn't talking about Leonard he was talking about Robinson.

    I wouldn't favor anyone because he's always the favorite at welterweight in my mind, there are several who I think have could beat him though. I'd say Leonard, Hearns, Duran, and Napoles all have a shot. I'd give Carmen Basilio an outside chance as well because he came up from welterweight to middleweight to beat an older but still good Ray Robinson.
