    Prime to prime. The boxers at my gym asked me who I thought would win. I had a hard time picking Manny over Ray. It would have been one hell of a fight.

    Ray was faster I believe and carried good combination power. Manny is a beast tho. A one in a million fighter. I need to go back and re-watch some of Ray's fights.

    It may not be a KO, but definitely an SRL win. If Pac really hits that hard and has that great of a chin, it might be another SRL-Hagler fight.

    Leonard would stop him. He's a great finisher

    Leonard would stand him on his head.

    Not a hard pick for me. Manny is a solid welterweight champion. A solid but small welterweight champion vs a large, top ten welterweight champion with blazing speed and big power and ATG skills. Manny and Leonard can now be mentioned in the same sentence, p4p, imo. But not at welterweight.

    Leonard for sure, he's African American and slick like my man Broner. Too much for Pac. Just like Pac's afraid of. Well that and blood tests that prove he's roiding.

    Hearns couldn't do it what makes you think Manny could. Sugar had a better chin than Manny also

    In debates, Pac only wins maybe less than 10% of all his fantasy prime vs prime match ups from flyweight to welterweight. What's one more loss. What a fantasy bum.

    Yeah, he'll lose this one again.
