Benny Leonard vs Henry ARmstrong at 135

Armstrong via decision.

 

i think leonard wins a disputed dec over 12 rounds ,leonard was very smart and would insist it be in a big ring and over twelve rounds,leonards foot work would be key and his ability to nulify armstrongs rushes by pulling armstrong in by the back of his neck to clinch thus causeing the ref to stop the fight to break the fighters,so leonard would try to punch as armstrong advanced then move or clinch and not let armstrong get into rytham,just an opinion

 

Leonard was smart as hell and one of the best 'boxers' ever.

But Armstrong took apart Ross who is another great 'boxer' and one i rate highly.

Armstrong is all wrong for Leonard this is the hardest match for Benny at LW

Armstrong UD (10-5 9-4)

 

I like Benny's skills in this one.
