    I know, but a couple dudes mentioned Hearns-Jacobs and I was just responding to that.

    I personally rank Hearns above Leonard despite his official 0-1-1 record against him. IMO he effectively outboxed him twice, just got out gutted in their first fight and was very unlucky in the rematch. Hearns was a phenomenon. I also don't see Jacobs fighting as closely as Leonard did against Hagler even though I see Jacobs beating Leonard. Stylistic difference. I think Hagler beats him. I see Jacobs going 1-2 vs. Leonard, Hagler and Hearns. Had Leonard spent more time at MW (Like Hagler and Hearns), instead of basically retiring for 6 years between weight classes, I think I'd probably call it different.

    Think a better fantasy matchup would be SRL vs Pirog at 160 ;)

    Do you know anything about a blown up weltetwelter vs a really big middleweight ?
    Is skill all that matters to you ?do you just go with the greats automatically because they are greats ? Obviously you don't know the difference between size dimensions obviously you just go with the legends. Because you have no critical thinking to question things you just go with the flow.

    Skill wise i get it Leonard is better there is no question about that . However as I've said before this case is different. There is a difference between fighting a 6'1 blown up jr middleweight and and middleweight that's naturally a super middleweight. It's just a simple question. Vote on the poll that's it's .

    Leonard wins by the late stoppage. Leonard 's killing instinct is the best. When his best shot hit you then a hundred of punches would follow. You don't even know where those punches come from.

    Pirog could KO Jacobs then why can't Leonard do? Leonard hit hard too. Once he knocked out the guy at 175, remember that?
