Sugar Ray Leonard would KNOCK OUT Mayweather in 9 rounds

[Dia bando]

Dunno about Money getting KOed by Sugar. Certainly possible though. I would sway more toward a Mayweather UD but still...

Leonard is certainly credible opponent for Money.

I would say Mayweather may have been, a credible opponent for SRL as compered to WHO was
about in the 80's, far higher caliber fighters back then to what Floyd has faced.
Far to many great fighters in that era, Floyd would have lost quite a few back then, he would have been
sparked a few times.
I think Floyd would have hidden down at Super feather or lightweight, in that era there again there
were fine fighters at them weights as well.

Come on let's not rip on the eras, both these eras are immensely strong.

Mayweather's victory over Canelo was more worthy than Leonards over Hagler for sure!

Honestly, this comes down to weight. The stronger version of Leonard I think could beat Mayweather by KO.

lb for lb, Mayweather decisions him.

Stop talking crap Canelo, have you been drinking moonshine I have seen many fighters
through the years, Floyd for this moment in time is a great fighter for the era, REMEMBER I am not
a 18 year old key board warrior. Lived it seen it the 80's is a extremely talented era for boxing, Floyd
has had luck on his side, he had no Hagler or Hearns or SRL to deal with and a good few more I
could think of to deal with.

I'm not certain Leonard would KO Floyd but he could certainly beat him.

Duran would definitely KO Floyd though.

Duran would definitely KO Floyd though.

Yeah because Duran was such a knockout artist at 147

Jesus, what's the criteria to become a moderator here? Do they at least make you guys spell "boxing"?

17 years after winning the lightweight title Duran beat the shit out of Iran Barkley, heavily flooring him, for the WBC middleweight title. Ring Magazine fight of the year.

If Duran was able to KO "world" champions above the welterweight limit why couldn't he KO a welterweight?

Floyd not only had a rough time with Maidana, first time out - reason for the rematch - but was briefly knocked stiff in the second encounter.

Anyone that thinks Floyd is "greater" than Duran better have some fucking slick argument. Fact.

You brought up a fight that went to a decision as proof that Duran was a KO artist at WW?

SMH man... SMGDH...

What? I gave an example of Duran beating up a middleweight "world" champion and stated a fact that Duran KO'd "world" champions above welterweight. That is a fact. Fact.

You do realise these are fantasy matchups, right? There's no right or wrong. However much you love a particular fighter you can't actually prove that he would win a particular fight that didn't happen.

Man, I kinda remember this fight a little. Duran was already old and I didn't giving him much a shot because I thought Barkley was like Hearns only a younger version with all that height leverage. I probably remember this fight because I watched in on AFRTS and I got it wrong. By the later rounds, Duran was sparking Barkley. Not really a fair comparison Barkley and Matyweather though. I have no doubts that Duran would KO Floyd. Gotta rewatch this fight again.
