    I think he beats Leonard prime for prime without a doubt.

    Hagler and Hearns though, I dunno, tough style matchups.

    The only fighter of the three who abandons his game plan and goes crazy from time to time is Hearns, I think Hopkins breaks him down and KOs him despite the speed differential, because Hopkins is like Hagler, really hard to hurt. I actually like Hagler in a match up between hop and he, because of his superior workrate and power ... but its not easy and its still probably close. I think Leonard would all depend on the judges if he can avoid getting hit cleanly by Hopkins.

    I'm sure everyone agrees with you that Hopkins is capable of beating them. But the threadstarter said "Hopkins would've taken hagler, sugar ray and hearns to school," which is BS.:deal
