    I had both Floyd-Maidana fights wide for Mayweather. I was watching Mayweather win a series of close rounds in each. Rough housing isn't scored.

    -oscar de la Hoya is a B+ rate fighter who never stepped up to the plate against A rate opposition.

    His power is overrated at 130. 16 of 26 wins were by knockout at 130 - a large number of them were bums. Loma next month when he beats Nicholas Walters is going to be ranked No.3 on the P4P list in only 8 pro fights after being arguably the greatest amateur ever, won a world title in his 3rd pro fight against the current FW champ (joint record), being the 1st pro to win titles in two weight divisions in just 7 pro fights + Loma is a stylistic threat. It's no surprise then that Mayweather would take a loss IMO.

    Were talking about a prime Leonard i assume?
    I actually like Norris more than Leonard alot more but no way in hell he beats a prime Leonard just no way.

    Jones-Hopkins 1 gets massively overrated in terms of historical significance. Along with being the first title fight for each man, Bernard wouldn't even beat his first top 10 opponent until 2 years and 6 fights after the Jones bout.

    you're just being negative. Of course there is!

    I look at it this way; if it took him 11 just to stop a stiff like Bonds, why would Norris have problems with that?

    Okay, your turn

    I was offline....look im not the best person expressing myself in writing. I barley got through high school over 30 yrs ago for gods sake. But u cant just say because Leonard took a while to beat Bonds that he couldnt beat Norris. That doesnt even make sense i mean look at all the guys that beat and stopped Norris not exactly HOFers here.
    I just dont c any way possible Norris beats a prime Leonard just no way.
    I agree with u most of the time Red just not here and i dont even really like Leonard but i cant deny the man.
