    He was like Pacquiao with skill and more chin. Insane power, insane speed, insane conditioning and then impeccable technician.

    Only guy who could beat him in his prime was Lamotta who outweighed him by 16 pounds. And then later he destroyed him over and over.

    Napoles too short and weak. Would be knocked out in around 10 rounds.

    Hearns too frail and poor chin. Lasts maybe 10 rounds.

    Leonard would eventually succumb to the pressure and be finished late.

    Floyd and Pacquiao just too small.

    The two Sugars would be an awesome sight to behold. Leonard had power in both hands so you can't count him out in that fight.

    No but he beats him easily at 160.

    At 147 mayweather gives him trouble and a close fight.

    Hagler would have to cut off a leg to make 147.

    Mayweather is simply too small for robinson.

    Arent you the dude that was complaining on another thread about this forum and the lack of knowledge? Then you come and post that garbage? So what Leonard had power in both hands, do you think hes gonna stop Robinson who was only stopped one time in almost 200 fights and that was due to heat exaustion when he was atempting to win the LHW title against Joey Maxim.You're a dumbass.

    Log Off and come back when you know something about boxing :deal

    Leonard was also a bit better defensively than Robinson, and was about equal in terms of hand speed. Not that much smaller, either.

    I think SRR wins- but SRL has his moments and ain't getting blown out.

    Was also a naturally stocky guy. Mayweather took a while to reach 147.

    At 147 Robinsons physical attributed are so dominant over Floyd's he's just gonna get stopped.

    Nobody said Leonard didnt have a chance, what i said is that theres no way he was knocking Robinson out, and i stand by that.

    From what I've seen from robinson at middleweight he looked good defensively. He just preferred to attack.

    Complaining about "lack of knowledge"? Da f*** you talking about? Wrong guy, dude. I didn't say anything about knocking SRR out. SRL had enough power to prevent SRR from blowing through him without consequences. My point is that SRL had dynamite in BOTH hands and SRR had to RESPECT that power and box accordingly.

    Now what I WILL complain about... no I won't complain about it because it what it is. But what I'll mention is how so many small d*** P****** are so quick to bash people on this board. I just refused to get into the verbal BS. Agree or disagree, I MUCH rather call you a b**** in your FACE then behind a KEYBOARD.

    This thread was about Robinson at 147. Dude mention Hagler at 160. I was trying to be subtle. I guess this aint the forum for subtlety.
