. And that sets up a fight for Sugar Ray Leonard. Barkley gets the split decision win in his favor over Duran, and a fight is set up for Sugar Ray Leonard s Super Middle weight title. The fight takes place in Las Vegas on Dec 1989. Can Iran make it 3in a row victory s, Hearns, Duran and now Leonard? Or can Sugar Ray get himself one more victory??
Sugar Ray still has enough left to beat Barkley. Would be tough for him,though. Leonard by decision by approx 2 - 3 points.
I think it would certainly be a close match Stevie. Ray wasn't far off getting beat by Norris, his reflexes were going by that time. Barkley was raw really and Sugar more the skilled man, but that was the case against Hearns and look what happened there. I'm a little undecided to be honest, mate.
