Welter Weight? SRL DESTROYS him... he had everything PBF had... and more.

yea weltwerweight i just watched hearns vs leonard man leonard had some skills and plus he could brawl aswell like when he fought flatfooted against hearns after 5th round

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Leonard....Fast strong had good chin...He moved well enough to avoid many of Floyds shots...I know Flod doesn't hit as hard as hearns, Duran or Hagler...So I don't forsee a KO

leonard is prolly one of best skilled boxers ive ever seen his without a doubt in my top ten list

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
only man to beat him in his prime was duran and that was because he brawled and didnt use his skills would he have ever lost in his prime only man outbox him was hearns other than that no one did yes terry norris did but leonard was way way past it
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
My speculation would be Ray wins by ko in the late 14th or 15th :)
But what ever.
This would be the greatest fight ever. (IMO) I would pay big money for this fight. This coming from the biggest tight wad on the planet. Me.

I too like the Warrrios flick (Have it on DVD) I just did not comment on the Warriors when everyone was in a thread the week before.

No way Leonard didn't have FLoyd's defense, speed IMO(in single punches), reflexes, or timing. Leonard was larger with a bigger chin and possibly heart, but he used speed footwork as opposed to clever footwork like Mayweather, Roy Jones, and HOpkins. I think this would be a great fight as opposed to a wipe out with Floyd either being tko'ed or winning a UD.
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
I see a fight similar to Leonard/ Benitez but without the knock downs, Leonard by decision though IMO
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Pretty tough call here.....
Both fighters ALMOST identically the same; speed, style, agility.....
I think the fight would be a very close call, in the end it could go either way I mean PBF would bring his ring generalship, the smart punches and slick shoulder roll.
In the end IMO the fight would be UD favor of Leonard due to the harder & cleaner punches, I just think judges would favor SRL advantages over the punches that PBF would land which would be more in qty. but not hard & clean like the ones SRL would land.

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
I would go with Mayweather. no reason for me to believe that Mayweather would lose. Ray was fantastic fighter, Howeever -vs- Ray I Thought Hearns won the second fight, I thought Haglar won the fight, and Duran won the first fight . I See Floyd doing the same. just my opinion

Remember though Ray was way past his best for Hearns 2, Hagler. Floyd doesn't fight anything like Duran he was relentless in that 1st fight. It would be a great battle of skills but I think Leonard who fought in the days of 15 rounders would have the edge.

Very Very possible,, you could argue for either guy and I would NOT object ! . interesting fight ;)

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
SRL would get his ass spanked just like my 2 year old..................pbf by a WIDE ud ;)

Yeah cc bro a very very close fight. I note you say Duran won the 1st fight... I might be alone here but I honestly thought Ray won, I don't remember how I scored it, haven't watch it in about 6 months but I know I scored it a win for Leonard.

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
PBF by wide UD? Sure about that?
PBF couldn't win wide UD's over Zab or Castillo. SRL would be by far the best opponent he's ever faced, I wouldn't count PBF out but to act like he'd just spank SRL is crazy.

WHOA!!!
pbf won a wide ud against judah, and the castillo fight was YEARS before mayweather even began touching on his prime :P
seriously, bro.........................
mayweather/castillo III at 147................................
how would that end, currently??

Judah won 4 rounds, maybe 5 on some cards although not mine, that's not a wide UD
Floyd might be better than these days, years before his prime, c'mon. Floyd is the best fighter in the world but its easier to look good against guys like Gatti than it is against Castillo. Floyd would win a UD over Castillo similar to the seoond fight with Castillo winning 4 rounds or so.
SRL was a natural welter, with the speed, skill, size and power to give Floyd hell. Do you really think that Floyd would just school him?

I agree no one dominated Ray at 147, even the 1st Duran fight was close (I thought Ray won). Floyd is great but Leonard was slightly better in every department!
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
no disrespect to duran but duran only won first fight is because duran said he fought like pussy and leonard wanted to prove a point by fighting more like a brawler
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Are you forgeting something?
Although Benitez lost to Leonard back in 78. He made Leonard miss time and again. He proved to be the better defensive masterman. Unfortunately he lacked the ice cool meticulous offensive qualities and maybe even the footwork that Mayweather has shown.
I think given my opinion that SRL isnt THAT great a boxer and he was up against someone with superror appliance of hand and footwork also with better defence... Id have to give PBF the nod... 2 times out of 3.

I agree with Oumafan, Leonard would kick little Floyds ass. Floyd is great but he's never fought anybody even approaching Hearns, Duran, Leonard or Hagler.
That was the golden age of welterweights just as Ali's era was the golden age of heavyweights.
No way Floyd beats a prime Ray Leonard.
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Um, didnt this fight already happen?
Yeah im pretty sure SRL fought Ffloyd Mayweather.
SRL was in the midle of his prime at the time.
Or are you talking about Mayweather Jr?

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
I have to go with Leonard. Never seen PBF tested so there's a big unknown in the heart department, Leonard has shown his many times, plus he's bigger and stronger. PBF loses by u.d. I think it would be competetive, but PBF wouldn't be able to hurt Leonard, and Leonard would stun PBF a couple of times. PBF had some difficulty with Zab, and SRL is far superior to Zab.

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
i dont know really. i havent seen that many SRL fights but by what you guys are saying he could beat floyd so i will say leonard by decision

Yeah Leonard/ Benitez is a great fight, Duran/ Leonard 1 is also a masterfull brawl.

I don't mean that I think SRL would just spank him but thinking that PBF would just school SRL at welter is underestimating SRL
What about Floyd-Aaron Pryor at 140?

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
aaron pryor because hes animal he comes out looking for finish i dont know if floyd could handle it plus pryor could box really well when he had to first arugello fight for example

Oh yeah, Pryor knocks Floyd out. Floyd struggled with the pressure of Castillo in the 1st & Pryor is a whole lot more of a monster!
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Really like both fighters but SRL stops PBF imo, slightly faster hands, more powerful, better chin and heart from what we know. Ray is naturally bigger aswell.
-
Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
We could have a unification fight - the battle of the acronyms.
PBF starts against SRL, the winner of that fights the winner of MAB versus JMM. SRR gets a bye and faces ODLH in the sencind round.
RJJ defends against B-H again, then JCC comes in.

Re: sugar ray leonard vs floyd mayweather who wins ??
Leonard would beat Floyd....he had more power (enough to go up to 160)
Duran 130
Chavez 140
Robinson 147
De la Hoya 147
Mosley 147
Hearns 147
Trinidad 147
Sanchez 126
Pep 126
Armstrong at whatever weight he chose to fight at
Would all have shots vs Floyd
