Leonard is stronger, a better infighter, has a more dogged mindset to win when dragged in deep waters and just has a generally better toolset of offensive abilities. I think he'd turn this into a real war and outmuscle, if not also overwhelm Floyds defense who has never really had to deal with a complete fighter (in most attributes) in his prime. Maidana is the closest person I can think of who made it war with Floyd to overwhelm his defense and we know Maidana ain't on Leonards level.

Leonard wins IMO.

 

At 130, PBF is Ray Leonard's equivalent. At 147, Ray has the clear advantage.

P4P is a better discussion, and much closer than people will want to admit.

 

Sr's handspeed was actually quite impressive... almost as fast as Ray. Ray was fast, but I feel like his speed was a tad overrated; he wasn't like a RJJ or anything. Duran was faster than him in their first fight. Tommy Hearns was also faster, IMO.

 

Agreed, Floyd's defense would assure him of making it to the 12th before the referee rescues him from any further punishment.

 

Multi division champions doesn't mean what it used to, by 1983 there were only 8 men in boxing history to win titles in 3 weight classes. Since then 41 have won 3 belts. Today, only 4 divisions have 16 championship belts , Geez Adrian Broner had 3 or 4 division championships which shows you how cheapened the accomplishment has become .

 

In those old days the Refs will actually not allow holding for dear life especially when there wasn't any action initiated.

Expect point reductions added to it also, there will be No Daddy Haymon to buy off the officials and ref so instead it's good night Irine.

 

Oh wouldn't you know even in that graphic Jr has the same facial expressions whenever he was asked to fight an actual threat in his prime no less, hilarious.

 

They just want Manny to do everything that their favorite fighter would never dare to do just so they can turn around & discredit it, never ends with the usual's.
