Benny Leonard where does he rate all time ?

better than Duran's. no 1 all time 135. atg probably top ten, and even top 5

 

Benny is in rare air. Almost impossible to overate him. His ability was uncommon and his achievements matched.

 

Numero uno.

 

I don't know if he was number one all time H2H. I do think he's top ten with Duran, Gans, Armstrong, Whitaker, Mosely, Mayweather, Ortiz, Williams and Canzonari ..

 

I think it's
Leonard 1A
Duran. 1B
H2H is a toss p but Benny fought a better crop of Lightweights.

 

Benny also had no color line. The ultimate boxer mover with a top chin, and plenty of stamina.

 

He is a lock for a top #3 at lightweight, and has a very strong case for #1.

P4p he could be right up there, depending upon your criteria.

He understood the finer nuances of Primo Carnera for goodness sake!

 

let's be honest. He'd kick Duran's ass

 

what's 1A and 1B?

there can only be one number one

 

Thanks for straightening me out.

 

You think? That a nickel will get you over the bridge

 

At the top of the food chain.

 

#4 at Lightweight
