    Neat, to bad MOST of the fight footage is sparining, and exbitions.

    The only real fights show it seem was Tendler and McLarin.

    I've seen a film of him fighting Jimmy McCLarnin. He was old and lost, but he scored a knock down with a sneaky right hand.

    Seen the Tendler fight 1, all 12 rounds ND. I think Leonard barly edge Tendler in that contest. The rematch would have Benny winning on points. Benny in his prime was fast, I belive prime for prime, Leonard may have beating Duran.
