Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Floyd Mayweather

why this fight not on the record ?

 

In fairness to, He's got an iron chin.

But Leonard had no elss than great stamina.

 

LOL. thats messed up.

But seriouly Jr. is a better fighter than his father, and while SRL is little ahead of Floyd in terms on speed, Floyd is a much smarter fighter. Duran would never have gotten inside his head the way he did too Leonard.

 

Duran would have terrified the **** & chased him off the stage at the weigh-in:deal

:thumbsup seriously he would have avoided all of them just waited till duran moved up to 147 then stay down untill hearns leonard and duran were gone from 147

 

Floyd is a much smarter fighter than Ray? Duran would never have got in Floyds head , you know why??? Floyd wouldnt fight Duran.

You do know those panamanians had 45 calibre bullets bouncing off their asses.

How can a 135 fighter come up and knock out these bigger guys , must be drugs.

More bull**** from the daily Mayweather.

 

It was a good fight that ended in a beatdown. Mayweather held his own. It was not as if he was not pushing Leonard. I like this fight. i don't think he had enough pop to hurt Leonard. That was the problem.

 

Leonard would have much more trouble with little Floyd, but he'd get to him eventually. Faster, more powerful, superb stamina, slick combinations, good skills, great heart, can box or slug, intelligent, great chin...Leonard was one of the most complete fighters in the history of the sport. Mayweather Jr has better defence, but Leonard already broke someone with super defence in the form of Benitez.

One thing I like about the video of the fight with Sr is the way Leonard goes to the body. it's actually beautiful, the way he mixes up head and body shots -- you don't see any fighter doing that today, not even Pacman. Whenever Leonard has him hurt on the ropes he ALWAYS goes down to the body with really hard, crisp shots, before switching back up to the head. Some of those combinations were downright scary, to be honest -- he was literally beating Sr into paste. You guys call Clottey a punching bag, but this fight was a far better demonstration of a fighter just using another like a bag -- standing in front of him quite calmly and just pounding him all over the place.

Credit to Sr, he's a better fighter than I expected. Quite fast, and that shoulder-roll clearly troubled Leonard for a while. Sr also hung in there for a long while, so he must have been pretty tough, both mentally and physically. His skills look decent too. By the end of the fight he was pretty much crushed, though.
