im not putting them in same category but they were decent fighters leonard had more power than mayweather and there speed is pretty equal although i think ray leonard may be shade quicker i still see ud for leonard it would be chess match
Nobody, not even Leonard in that time was as quick as PBF PERIOD. As quick boxer myself I can honestly say he is faster than anybody else out there, and in terms of one punch probably the fastest guy to ever box(Zab Judah would follow closely but is also bred for fighting and has much shorter arms). Mayweather doesn't always look fast because he doesn't waste his time shoe shinning opponents, but he throws his punches with his full strength behind them, and they are still a blur. Or he will throw a straight right without his body behind it, and still it will be incredibly fast. The slight edge in speed he would have on Leonard IMO makes this fight because both relied on speed more than anything else.
