    Leonard would be in over his head at middleweight with GGG. Hagler had slipped, the Mugabi fight exposed it. Ray would showboat and win some early rounds but GGG would walk him down.

    Agreed, Hagler's war with Mugabi exposed his slippage. I think more than anything that's why Marvin retired, he knew the time was right.

    Leonard simply wasn't a true middleweight and was already well past his prime once he ascended there. Pound for pound Ray was leagues better than GGG, but that isn't the reality in an actual head to head match...

    Golovkin wins.

    see srl vs hagler in 87
    factor in the fact that srl had never fought at middle
    and on TOP of that that he'd fought ONCE in the last FIVE years prior.
    and tippy top it with gg's performance against jacobs.
    there...

    I don't know where to start with this mate..None of it proves anything. Especially how he'd fare against ggg

    the fact that he beat an atg at a weight he never competed at doesnt prove a thing to you...
    the fact that you would compare brook's performance to the second greatest welter ever proves nothing...
    that gg has never faced a hall of famer let alone an atg or even a great fighter means squat.
    it proves you are either new to the sport and just don't really know srl.
    or you have the imagination of an accountant.
    now don't get me wrong, the world has a place for accountants, it's just that in mythical matchups imagination is not just the most important thing, it's the key element.
    so... i don't know...

    He waited for Hagler to show decline then jumped at the chance after seeing the Mugabi fight. If that was prime Hagler V leonard hed be in a totally different fight down the stretch. Hagler had slowed massively and still some think he won it. Leonard never beat a prime atg at middle like u suggest. It was Haglers last fight, does that not tell u anything ? ggg MD with sugar ray holding on to see the final bell if hes lucky....

    the gg that ducked ward and struggled mightily vs jacobs is a hypejob
    the gg that declined 15 million to take 3 is a hypejob
    btw, and all this will float freely above your head
    btw.... gg lowered his stock vs jacobs so look for golden boy to lower that initial offer.
    also
    are you suggesting that that was a prime leonard?
    son, it's not that you have a lot to learn..
    it's that you can't.

    He was far more preserved than Hagler. Hagler was done but your not listening. If theres 100,000,000 on the table do u think its fare for ggg to accept 15%??? just because its big dough doesn't mean its fare u clown. He has the belts at middle and he gets 15%? Get a grip man. Canelo is the ducker pmsl...f.u.ck sake he threw the belt at ggg an ran, an u call ggg a ducker ??? ggg lowered his stock to casuals, that's all. Golden boy only cons casuals !

    i didn't call gg a ducker. you did.
    and don't be silly...again. gg doesn't bring money to the table, he doesn't sell. there is a reason they bring chocolatito into every gg card. and for gawds sake it's not 15% it's 15 million.
    $100000000 one HUNDRED million dollars???
    REALLY?
    son...just talk to someone like you
    you have too much of a low boxing iq to make an argument, much less to sound intelligent on this matter....
    i mean... gg better than srl....
    oh and history marks that gg ducked ward, so...there
    and to cap it... mayweather started at 126 and won belts all the way to 54
    gg won't go up ONE category to fight ward. much less 6.
    tell him to please stop calling out 40 year old mayweather who according to your deep wisdom is soo over the hill
    because...well hagler was at thirty something
    don't respond kid.
    all you have in your boxing mind is fluff
    and i am just bullying you.
    and bullying is wrong.
    gawd don't like bullies.
    that's his job.h
