:rofl :rofl :rofl im not gonna lie sweet pea, i nearly fell out of my comfy chair laughing after reading that. you have your moments bro :good
Out of those fighters I see him beating Moore and Kalue thats it he would lose to everyone else. How would he beat McCallum he tooks Jackson best shots and stood up Mike had some serious power at 154lbs could box very well good defence and proved himself against quality fights. Tony beat nobody who is in Hearns, McCallum, Duran or Benitez's league.
I think Marv would treat Tony just as he did another Short Squat Big Left Hookering Tony, - Sibson ! Moving Behind the Jab Early, Steping in with Hard One-Two's, Drawing Tony's Sting, And then Mid-Fight Going on the attack with Hard Fast Combinations - Same Name Same Result ! Marvin circa 6 rds - Thats Boxing for a Trouble Free Win, If Marv when for a Tear-up it would be exciting, Tony May land a few more shots, but make little impression, Marvs Accuracy even in a Fire-Fight too Much for Tony, This Style could end in the 3rd. Tony would have his hand royally full with Sibson, Hamsho, Roldan, ect Never Mind The Man Himself.
It's a shame what Tony did... I almost feel disgusted talking about it now, But his outside the ring ethic's are his problem not mine. His career will always be a what if? The begining of a possible era was never seen. (Tony Ayala Jr. the prospect died in '83) As much as I'd like to place him in a select class. (I can't) Marvin Hagler would prob handle him in Mugabi fashion.
I put up my photo of Hagler in sparring as proof that I saw him 3 weeks before the leonard fight. How come no one including Pea will bring it up? I know everyone saw it too.
It's a good thing Tony wasnt around in those days. He would shatter Mugabi's glass chin (see the Green fight) John would try to box Tony but it wouldnt be long at all before he backed up the beast and got him up against the ropes and began beating on him. Tony wins this in Jack Dempsey type fashion
^ I went one better than Lowes. In a direct comparison between both 3-1 favorites, Norris thrashed Leonard, won every round, won six rounds by a margin of 10-8 (rounds 2,3,7,9.10,11) xcored two knockdowns against his outclassed foe, knocked out his tooth, and retired him for 6 years (until a shabby performance by Camacho gave him the courage to return) Compare this to a mere split decision win over Hagler, a decision I and countless others didnt he deserved. Leonard was sharper and more impressive but just shy of winning.
Thomas Hearns D 12 Ray Leonard Boy, that Leonard sure has a spotty record for a guy with under 40 fights :yep
In fact I'm overriding that incompetent judge from Mexico. Hagler SD 12 Ray Leonard That makes four losses, five if you include the rematch with Hearns
