Does Leonard have the best three wins ever?

Charles has Burley, Moore and Louis.

 

But Louis was past his best.

 

3 great wins for sure, particularly Hearns 1.

Durans win over Leonard may be the single best win ever though

 

Frazier over Ali is really close.

 

Agreed. The move from 135 to 147 makes me lean towards this though

 

Greb has Tunney, Walker, Gibbons, & Loughran.

& Bivins, who himself has Charles, Moore, & Burley on his resume.

 

Armstrong jumping up from fw & bypassing lw to dethrone longtime ww champ Ross gets my vote.

 

So was Hagler

 

Not to that extent.

 

You haven't even watched the fight.

 

The names on paper, and the times the fights happened makes you think yes indeed Leonard has 3 absolute insane wins, 3 GOAT worthy. But in context, Duran basically came to the fight straight from the sauna trying to shed the weight he gained from the greatest party binge of his life filled with beautiful women and alcohol, and a lot of folks feel strongly that Leonard was gifted the decision against Hagler. Hearns is the only true great win

 

To be honest how do we define best win ever?

 

Duran was coming off a career best win. That victory deserves all the credit in the world.

 

Tyson in my book ( Holmes , Spinks, Tucker )
