    Who wins??
    Leonard was much smaller than GGG but still managed to go up to higher divisions.

    If we are assuming a prime GGG then the only question is does Ray hear the final bell

    I don’t like SRL as a person at all but as a prizefighter he’s a all time great he’s beats GGG by UD.

    SRL is a horrible man nothing like nice guy 3G who says "hehe no worry i lost, i good boy this time no prob" a true gent, but hes ATG. If elite can narrowly beat 3G, then ATG "might" stop him.

    The SRL who beat Hagler beats any version of GGG.

    I have to agree, though Leonard is possibly my all time favourite fighter so I'm probably bias

    Just because a protected and roided up Canelo was able to be competitive enough to get gift decisions against a 35 year old GGG doesn’t mean Leonard beats a prime Gennady. And Ray was dropped and hurt by lesser punchers.

    On an equal playing field without corruption or paid off judges... GGG by UD after dropping Ray a couple of times. Gennady’s Jab would play a big part.

    Laugh all you want but at the end of the day GGG is one of the best middleweights of all time and an outstanding pressure fighter with a better jab than Haglar had.

    It’s REALLY not beyond the realms of possibility GGG beats Leonard.
