    Leonard would give floyd real issues.

    Leonard would win for me more then not but he is also the bigger guy. The real mismatch in my veiw is Hearns because Mayweather skill set is not great versing him at all. I mean Hearns was never out boxed you had to knock him out which is going to be problem only Hagler, Leonard and Blade got it done but they were huge compared to Mayweather. I think Hearns would of been avoided to be honest an i would not even blame the guy Hearns was a freak of nature how he was 147 at any point in his career is beyond me because he ended fighting at fucking cw.

    As much as I am not a fan of Leonard, I have to give the Sugar Man respect for taking on Yearns and beating him. That fight nearly ruined him as I think he picked up his eye injury in that fight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
