    1. Leonard
    2. Duran
    3. Hagler
    4. Hearns

    It would of been interesting if Duran wasn't the smallest of the bunch how things might of played out and still managed the win Hagler and Hearns couldn't attain despite being the smallest of the bunch. Just one of the reasons Duran rated highly.

    1. Hagler wasn't prime when he beat Hearns.

    2. What do you mean by "Leonard wanted nothing to do with Hearns...until he thought he could win"? They both fought in the heart of their prime. Leonard stopped him.

    -I probably should have said better version rather than prime, ray would have lost clearly vs the hagler that fought hearns imo.
    - Im talking about the rematch of course hence the 2 after hearns' name, in my opinion leonard had no plans to rematch hearns, but after hearns vs barkley and struggling vs kinchen he fancied his chances and decided to give it a go, to his credit he did pretty good and if it was a 15 rounder he probably would have stopped him like the first, which would have been like the second if it was 12 rounds, excluding the kd's of course.

    One of the toughest assignments there are this particular one. Cases of all kinds can be made for each of them.

    Duran probably achieved the most overall. Hagler absolutely owned his division. Head to head there's a strong argument for Leonard, and Hearns achieved plenty as well.
