    How does a prime Leonard fare against these fighters from 147-160. I know he only had 1 fight at 160, but he looked real good against Hagler (who was aged but still dangerous) and I feel that if he could stay active he'd do well there.

    Leonard would have toyed with Eubank Jr and beaten Eubank Sr and all his opponents at 160.

    On the general forum they're saying that Eubank Jr. Derevencheko, and BJS beat Leonard.

    Loses to just to Robinson at 147.

    Beats basically everyone at 154, except McCallum (50/50) & Hearns.

    Mixed results at 160, loses to Hagler,
    Monzon, Robinson, LaMotta, Fullmer, Toney, Jones, Hopkins, GGG Nunn & Kalambay. My heart says Watson too, but my brain is telling it stfu. Beats everyone else.

    There`s no way Benn or Watson could have beat Leonard at 160, they both would have stood a better chance at 168, Hagler would have beaten both of them in `87, that win on Ray`s record outdoes anything Benn or Watson did at 160, Watson`s bout v Leonard would have been like his first bout v Eubank where he looked clueless and threw arm punches, Benn wouldn`t take Ray`s power very well at 160, he was floored by Anthony Logan, hurt by Barkley and stopped twice, Watson didn`t have Ray`s power, don`t forget that Ray stopped Lalonde who wa a lot bigger than Benn or Watson.
