    Mauweather is better defensivley, but Leonard beats him in most other departments, including competition. If Leonard & Mayweather fought, it would be @ 147, Leonard would win at least a U/D and test how good Mayweathers chin.

    Leonard beat the living dogpiss out of mayweather senior, what fight were you watching? The ref should've stopped the fight much earlier than he did...most sr.s current ******edness can be traced to the beating he took from leonard.

    Floyd might not ever be the same after Leonard gets done with him.

    Ma man Ray Leonard can beat Sugar Ray Robinson too so how the hell is Floyd going to touch him?

    uh uh.. no way..

    LEONARD #1

    I agree. Leonards ability to put beautiful combos together is what would give him the fight.

    :lol: Obviously you've never seen Leonard vs Floyd Sr if you think he had any trouble with him? That was a beating.

    Such morons coming in day in and day out on this site. I assume most of you came from boxing scene.

    At 147 Benitez would've beaten Mayweather, no question in my mind. You've shown your astounding lack of knowledge too much in this thread. I suggest you study up and watch a lot more film before posting again.

    The fact that PBF has 19 votes is astounding.

    Floyd is SLIGHTLY more naturally gifted than Leonard was.

    Floyd's career is a work in progress


    Leonard fought better competition.

    prime Leonard would beat Floyd at 147 and above.

    Dont think so.
    Ray Leonard was
    --- KO by in 5 by Camacho
    --- Almost knocked out by Terry Norris and Donny Lalonde
    --- Gift decision against Hagler
    --- Lucky to get a draw against Hearns.
    Better than Mayweather ?????
    Not a chance.

    Sugar Ray. Mayweather better find a few ATGs to fight if he wants to even come close.
