    What's the highest anyone here has him ranked P4P?

    In a H2H sense?

    I have Leonard #2 on H2H for welters...Gavilan is #3...but to me it is so close between these two H2H...

    You'll be hard pressed to find anyone that you can say would beat Leonard without a shadow of doubt. Leonard was that good. He makes my top 5 pound for pound. Depending on the day, of course, he hangs around numbers 4 and 5.

    Head to head, he ends up on the victor's side quite often.

    Suprisingly low. record of 35-5 unofficial. Also, lack of defenses hurt his ranking. Needs at least double the fights with same number of losses before I look at him.

    Top 5 H2H.
    He was astonishing. Fast hands, fast feet, power, brains, guts, determination, good chin.

    Amazing talent.

    What does pound-for-pound head-to-head mean ?

    I thought it was two questions. How do you rank him P4P all time? Ho does he normally do in head to head match-ups? I may have been wrong.

    Sugar Ray Leonard h2h has to be in the top 5 for my money. Lighting fast, had underrated power, and great stamina.
