Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
Leonard can't boast an 0 on his record and Floyd can so imo if he can beat Oscar then he's in the elite no question and for the record hagler was robbed against SRL (anyone who knows boxing can tell you that) ;)
5 weights for Mayweather too :)
And especially in his defence he's showed me moves that SRL simply never posessed.
I don't think for a second he will retire either and expect him to go after Cotto etc if he wins ;)
He's got too much to give us to turn it in at his age ;)
Like him or loath him he is gifted!

Well i could say same for you thinking Hagler won Leonard could of done no Worse than 7-5 i don't see where this robbery is coming from Leonard won first 4 rounds easy as pie and Leonard won one of middle rounds if i remember and he won 12th i would have to do rbr but i had it very close but no robbery people use word robbery in wrong fashion a robbery isn't when a fight could go either way a robbery is Chavez vs Whitaker Chavez vs Ramirez Lewis vs Holyfield 1 .

No question!
Yes...this is the final piece to the PBF "I'm the Greatest " puzzle...unfortunatly IMO I don't think that piece is going to fit.....ODHL is taking that piece for himself....

no different to pbf? how do you think pbf would fair against duran, hagler , and hearns? and im sick of peeps saying hagler was robbed, it was a good win for leonard who was a welter and hadnt been in ring for 3 yrs......it would have been more contraversial if hagler got the decision....leonard won by 1-2 rds easy.....
Hagler was ROBBED!!! Hearns beat Leonard the second time around...a friggin draw?!!!!! come'on....

Yes i watched it on saturday it was no robbery i had Leonard sneaking it, in the latest issue of Boxing Monthly they do a big rite up on the fight and i think they get the verdict of ten writers/boxing journos and like 9 out of the 10 say leaonard won the fight, it was far from a robbery!!
Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
I had Hagler beating Leonard 115-114. But anytime a fight is that close, you can't call it a robbery either way. It's Hagler's fault for letting the fight be that close, he should have attacked Leonard right from the opening bell instead of letting Leonard build up an early lead.
The Leonard-Hearns II decision was much worse. It's pretty impressive that Hearns won the overwhelming majority of the rounds he had against Leonard in their two fights. He was way ahead on the scorecards when he got TKO'd in the first fight and should have won the second fight.
Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
Although i can c floyd gettin a ud i want oscar to win but im not sure if he can match up to to floyd nd as for how much credit floyd gets for the win will depend on if he fights oscar the way he did against baldomir he will only get credit from dedicated boxing fans for putting on a clinic but if he mixes it up with oscar like he claims he will everybody watching the fight will give him credit just like leonard got also i think he needs to fight a few more world class opponents nd win or lose impressively to be up there wid the fighters previously mentioned

I agree, well that's the impression were getting in the UK anyway. He's been quite entertaining in fact!
Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
It's all a front and i'd bet a lot of ££ that he's totally different behind closed doors ;)
Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
IF and that's a HUGE MOTHAF*****G IF...if he beats DLH and then stops ducking others and finally fights them and wins, then he is on his way to becoming a Mega Star. If he retires, which I don't will happen, then he will always be remembered as a very good fighter who could have been great!
Re: wILL A flOYD WIN MAKE HIM A MEGA STAR?
Yes, even though he has a peronality that goes over like a turd in a bowl of punch.
