    Oh and Leonard takes Lou Ambers' strategy and doubles it. He wins on points, he's too big and quick.

    Ohhhh, now this would be a good fight.
    Would love to see both legends throwing leather.
    Another fight where the under dog, imo, could possibly get the decision.
    Good match up.

    Henry Armstrong probably wouldn't threaten to **** his wife.

    Armstrong gets smashed to bits. Leonard is too big, too strong & too fast for him. Armstrong is an ATG & arguably No#1 - but H2H he's no match for Leonard. His only hope for winning is for Leonard of Montreal, & even that is a tall order as Duran (who is bigger & harder-hitting than Armstrong) took quite a shellacking to get a hard-fought SD - with some feeling Leonard deserved the nod as champion.

    I'll take Leonard over Armstrong any day. Armstrong is way too one dimensional for Leonard

    My view has evolved on this one since I first commented on it twelve years ago. I now select Leonard by UD in a fast paced great fight.
