    So did Hagler, only better and faster. Forget Benitez, anyone could beat him and and forget the Hagler fight, because Hagler was an old bag.

    Instead see Norris v. Leonard to get a clear view of how Ray handles speed and movement and it becomes abundantly clear who can and who cant.

    This gets easier all the time for me when my opponents are John Thomas. Mr Magoo

    Rooster, you need to take a leaf out of my book when it comes to being unbiased.

    We could also look at Holmes - Ali, idiot :lol:

    Hearns i don't classify as a boxer, he's close to the ultimate boxer/puncher sunshine :yep

    You are less biased than most as is Sweet Science and Sweet pea but everyone has some bias.

    My unbiasedness is at least on par with anyone else on here. I call it as I see it.

    I say thee nay varlet! Verily thou hast forgotten!

    Hagler broke the unbeaten Colbert's jaw (KO 12)

    He destroyed Watts in two

    He destroyed Monroe in 12 and 2

    Marvin did get a little roughed up by Duran and performed erratically but won without major problems.

    Destroyed Hearns in 3 which you keep forgetting

    Leonard struggled with Hearns, Bonds and Norris. Actually, he lost to Norris :lol:

    Good thing Terry hadnt come along ten years earlier otherwise Ray would have no second title

    he still beat hearns and bond

    norris was when he was shot

    and if my memory serves me right leonard beat hagler (albeit closely but he still won)

    now rooster shut up and stop trying to detract from sugar ray this is a forum you can debate not just slander 1 guy
