Sugar Ray Leonard circa 1986 v Floyd Mayweather 2007

Worthy of pinning!!!

 

He entered the ring near 170, which is more than Hagler weighed in the ring.

 

All this proves is that you’re going to great lengths to pretend that Canelo’s in ring weight was not more Hagler’s. Those who know these two are aware that is a false narrative.

 

The funny part is that Canelo did not have a rehydration clause. This shows that there was compromise between the two sides.

36 year old Mayweather’s performance against Canelo while giving up 15-20 pounds was superior to Leonard’s shoe shine act against a faded Hagler, who probably deserved to leave w his title.

 

So you’re going to discount his height, reach, strength and power?


So your logic is:

Floyd would have fought and beaten Marvin, because he beat Canelo who weighed more than Marvin?


Brilliant.

What a pleasure it is to have you here.

 

Nobody cares.

It’s completely irrelevant.

By your logic, Floyd would have moved up and fought and beaten a young Roy Jones, based on the fact that he beat Canelo who may have been heavier.

It’s ridiculous.

Why don’t you engage your brain and look at this from a different perspective:

Why would a guy who wouldn’t fight a prime version of Manny, or Canelo at 154, have fought Marvin Hagler at JMW-MW?

It’s not a head scratcher is it?

We don’t have to sit down and think deeply about this.

Floyd wasn’t willing to face lesser fighters and their weights.

He didn’t possess the characteristics or the attributes needed to have even considered fighting Marvin Hagler.

Have a word with yourself.

Guys who won’t let fellow champs weigh-in at the limit, would not then suddenly fight ATG’s at an even higher weight.

 

Another clueless post.

Floyd would not let a fellow JMW champ weigh-in at the limit. Yet he was happy to fight Cotto and Oscar there. We know why he demanded the C-W. It was obviously in the hope of draining him. If Floyd was as great as you think he was, he wouldn’t have needed the C-W on a fellow JMW champ. Canelo wasn’t prepared to fight a guy of Floyd’s calibre at that point. He’d barely beaten anybody.

The only credit Floyd gets is that he was still in incredible shape at 36 years of age.

Ray coming off of a 3 year lay off to beat Marvin was much more impressive.

Ray was also faded like Marvin was.

 

facts like always

 

he can't legend he is not doing a good job proving us wrong

 

Leonard’s retinal detachment was in 82 and he fought Hagler in 87. You’ll need to find a new excuse, sir.

And, make no mistake, Canelo is the king of rehydration.
