Someone explain why Ray Leonard is ranked so highly?

Elton, you're not qualified to comment on references because you don't even know what one is. And when presented with one, you refuse to acknowledge it, much like your idol refused to acknowledge the challenge of any light heavyweight.

So will that be your left hand or your right hand you'll be showing it off to?

Nobody is more qualified to comment on this than yourself.

 

sure I do, becuz unlike yourself I recieved an actual education and dont troll sites such as this one spreading

the reason your myth became so popularized is similar to what happens when gossip is spread from person to person and changes slightly from one to the next until it reaches its final form ... "Ray leonard was a one eyed, cocaine addict"... which evolved from "Ray Leonard was seen at a party where I saw some people doing coke"


To set the record straight (as I often must at ESB) it was Pryor who was the addict, not Ray Leonard

 

The biggest troll we know claiming hes not trolling...Pure gold!!!

 

Right on that Southpaw ! And you got to love how he keeps referencing his `wife`... She must be a real looker, and an intellectual genius as well

 

Actually, you DO troll this site spreading myths. It's kind of your.......I dunno......your idiom. Unfortunately, it's all anyone here knows you for.

Shame, really, because your brain works and all, you're not dumb. You're just a bit touched, which is sad, because you could actually offer some insight once in a while were it not for your.............well, let's be kind and call it a "preoccupation."

 

since u are making reference to me and my wife, u should know that makes u fair game for forthcoming comments u probably wont care for

 

Sanchez u flatter me but what I bring here doesnt come from MY mind but rather everything I took from my extensive magazine collection, interviews, etc. I just regurgitate everything for the sake of ESB readers

The interviews are real. the problem is, most here havent seen them and since they dont like what I have to say, then they simply refute whatever I say

as for any myths, those come from the other posters.

a favorite goes like this "Ray Leonard was a one eyed coke addict"

Do YOU believe Ray Leonard was one eyed? Then tell me how he could be granted a license to fight? Didnt the doctor clear him to box?

you see? so it's a myth!

the cocaine? that's a myth too. it started out as "Ray Leonard attended a event where some of the Hollywood crowd was seen snorting the stuff"

this then reconstituted itself into its final form "Ray Leonard was a coke addict"

no, I would never do anything other than present facts. so when I say Ray Leonard wasnt able to deal with quick boxers, he couldnt

in the words of Robert Palmer, the proof is irrefutable! for proof see Terry Norris, vast underdog who left Sugar bewitched, bothered, N bewildered

or to put it another way, Norris was slick, quick, and made Ray Leonard sick

 

Exhibit 73a.............

 

it may be irritating to some but definitely not trolling. those are two lines I picked up. one from an article in KO back in the day. It irritated me too at the time but then I made it mine

the other line "bewitched, bothered N bewildered" I borrowed from a 1950s song and made it mine too. it applies to many a foe who tried but then died shortly after when faced with the impeccable skillz of Norris

Now the question, do u believe that Ray Leonard was a one eyed coke addict.
