that's what I think of Hopkins whenever I see him perform in the ring
That's because you havent seen Hagler. Marvin's resume goes way back before Leonard's career even began, and was hitting the big time when Ray was...

this would b a great tag team matchup. I always wished for this the way they have in wrestling. I think Sugar ray Leonard would have done well...
