    No ****. Hell, Prime Trinidad beats anyone fighting between 147-160.

    This era sucks.

    Today?:think Actually yeah he would and that isnt really that bold a prediction or anything. There isnt anyone there that I think would be a strong challenge for him like maybe in the last 10 years we had Bhop at 160 or Winky at 154 that could have given him good fights.

    The only thing I will say that Ive said before is SRL wasnt prime at 160

    Trinidad vs Pavlik would have been an awesome fight!

    147 I agree. He did too less at 154 and 160 to really judge that.

    I don't think it sucks but its definately favors a good boxer puncher Leonard, DLH, Trinidad style.

    I know but when he was Prime at 147, I think he could've bulked up to 160 and beaten anyone fighting there today.

    He fought Hagler to a close win/loss however you look at it. Taking Hagler to a decision that close either way is enough for me to know he could handle anyone fighting today

    I think Prime Leonard would beat Pavlik at 160.
