    Ray boxes circles around Shane and possibly stops him late.

    stops him? Shane has an iron chin mind

    i think Shane would have his moments but i think Leonard via 116-112 type with Leonard knocking Mosley down once if that was so 116-111

    Hard to see him TKO Mosley in prime but I see SRL winning by UD easy

    Leonard UD in a good fight, a prime Shane Mosley isn't easy for anyone though.

    Mosley was a better Lightweight, but he's still a very good Welterweight.

    Sugar Ray Len is an elite Welterweight. He beats Shane by UD, but he gets rocked once or twice and never seriously hurts Shane.

    116 - 112 for SRL, and Mosley is by no means embarrased. The key factor is Mosley's lack of a jab.

    No comparison. SRL is one of the greatest welterweights of all time. Shane was a pretty top notch lightweight champion. But he was no Duran.

    Sugar Ray via a clear cut UD win. 7 rounds to 5 or 8 rounds to 4.

    Sugar Ray stopping Shane late on a pressure TKO.Mosley not going down though.
    Peak Ray always found a way.Of all the fantasy fights on ESB,this is up there with the best in the modern era.

    Mosley in 2000-01 at WW was as good as he ever was at 135, if not better.

    While he didn't have the size advantage over WWs like he did at 135, he was more comfortable at the weight, more experienced, and even looked more fluid.

    It still wouldn't be enough. Leonard would beat him handily. Just smarter and more dimensions to his game.

    Accidentally voted Mosley. Thought the poll said against Floyd, for some reason. My bad.


    Shane gives him one of his toughest fights, but he gets outboxed and hit harder more consistently against Leonard.
