Just how bad a** was SUGAR RAY LEONARD?

no he was not a god...he was superior.

Leonard was a bad mother****er. He had everything a great fighter needs, wants, and dreams about.

 

not really but lets just put it this way...

he made damn sure that he deserved the title "SUGAR RAY"...and no one can argue bout that!!!!!


NO ONE!!! :verysad

 

I've been watching boxing since the early seventies, and he is the best fighter of my lifetime.

 

he's the only fighter who I would say has a good chance (over 25%) to beat SRR.

 

You're talking of course at WW.

 

yezzir...thanks for the clarification.

 

Ray Leonard
KO iby in 5 by Camacho (old Camacho)
Schooled by Terry Norris (lucky to finish)
Got a gift in his Draw with Hearns
Almost got knocked out by Donny Lalonde
Got schooled by Mavin Hagler
His early fights were against overmatched opponents.
Got schooled by Roberto Duran in hte 1st fight.
Throw the 2nd one out.
Good fighter.
Great fighter ?????
If you thinkd so ???????
I dont.

 

:rofl....red rooster, is that you? what a joke.

 

You havent been watching very close.

 

He is the greatest fighter of the post Ali era nobody else even comes close, not roy jones or mayweather or holyfield or hopkins none can compare to The Great Ray Leonard

 

I saw these fights.
Check his record out.
No joke --- facts.

Mayweather would knock him cold in 5.

 

KO'ing Hearns in fight # 1 was the night he officially became a bad ass. My dad was big fan of the 20's-50's fighters. He would say stuff like "Joe Louis, SRR, and Marciano would pick their teeth with the likes of fighters like So & So." Two fighters from later on that he really appreciated were Leonard and Ali.

 

Leonard was a great, great fighter. The constant retirements were frustrating, but he proved himself the greatest P4P guy of his era and beat everyone he needed to beat to establish his greatness. The first Leonard-Hearns fight was the one that really made me a hardcore boxing fan.
