No doubt it my mind.... The Pac from the Cotto fight... Against SRL from the first Duran fight(wear he tried to brawl) Pac would be all in his grill,landing at will on Leonards long frame... roughing him up,cornering him like Duran did... Obviouslly SrL could outbox him,but if he chose to brawl Pac would get the better of it! HATE ON IT!
atsch Log off dumbass! SRL would have clowned outboxed and beat up Pac before stopping him. Easy work for SRL.:deal
Are you crazy? How long have you been watching boxing? SRL is much faster than Pac better reflexes and would beat him to the punch all night long. This guy was going toe to toe with the likes of Duran Hearns and Hagler but yet Pac would have given him problems??:rofl SRL could go to war with Pac not even box him and still kick his ass.
Gotta agree with this. If JMM could drop Pac I have a hard time believing SRL couldn't do the same, huge power discrepancy and Pac doesn't have the same defensive skills Duran had, where he rolls with the punches and quickly returns fire he also didn't have Duran's chin.
I think SRL wins,but he is not much faster,I don't think he may even be faster than Pac with his hand speed.
He would definitely give Ray problems, even with the size disparity, but it's hard to believe that you believe anything you post after this http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?p=15759613#post15759613
I'm sorry, I really mean no disrespect to Pac. I enjoy and respect him very much, his accomplishments, he's an ATG, and although i question his wins north of 140, just the thought of a guy who started at what, 122 getting in the ring with 147'ers. is impressive. He does have speed and power, i'll give you that. But, he is a flawed fighter. horrible footwork, 0 ring generalship, very susceptible to counter-punching. Any "Boxer" that you would put on an ATG list would have there way with him. SRL, SRR, Mayweather. You could make an argument that he would give hell to the Duran's, JCC's on the ATG, but against boxers, sorry bro. not happening.
Ok son let me teach you a little about the history of boxing. 1. Ray went toe to toe with Duran and lost!!! 2. He didnt go toe to toe with Hagler. He clowned Marvin and took him out of his game plan. 3. Ray was bigger , faster and punched harder than Duran and still wasnt convincing in the No Mas fight. Ray beats Pac but its not onesided.
I think the flaw in this argument is their ability to take punches and Pac's defensive. SRL fought Hearns twice and took some great shots. Pac lost to JMM with a punch that I don't think would have dropped anyone with a decent chin at 147, nor would SRL have put himself in that position to get hit in that manner. Leads me to believe Pac wouldn't be able to take what SRL was dishing out.
This is pretty much spot on....apart from the part when you said 'toe to toe' with Hagler. By his own admission SRL didn't want any part of a war with Hagler
size difference is big, leonard is 5'10 and a big welter, who reached light heavy. so look at his bone structure. hes also the best welterweight of all times, ye i like him over robinson. so na think leonard would ko pac in the 8th but leonard wouldnt walk through pac he'd box with reach than have him once pac hurt.
