    If Duran got inside on Leonard, Armstrong would too.

    The question would be how long Leonard could take the heat.

    Armstrong by close UD in 15.

    Armstrong had great intensity and was a pitbull coming in no question about it. He didnt have Duran`s defense though. Duran was able to slip and slide coming at Leonard and he was right on top of him with either hand punching.

    I dont think Henry had the boxing skills to do what Roberto Duran did. Hank was tough as nails and probably goes the distance but I think Ray Leonard was too big and fast and smart for Armstrong at Welter.

    Leonard UD15.
