    Its hard to say I think that JCC, Pryor, Tszyu all did the most at the weight, but that Mayweather would beat any of them, and I also think ODLH would have given any of them a ton of trouble at 140 with his jab and hook. Also when did Leonard dodge Pryor? Leonard was a lot bigger than Pryor, and a fought Duran who was a lot better than Pryor. IF you aren't scared of Hearns at the time Leonard fought him then you aren't scared of anyone.

    Pryor always claimed Leonard was ducking him, and I believe (though not sure) Pryor tried to make the match, but Leonard choose other fights. Pryor would have been a tough match for him.

    Julio Ceaser Chavez for me, too many big names and an incredible record, JCC for his longevity.

    I agree. I've never bought the whole "Leonard ducked Pryor" argument, I think it's a bunch of BS. Leonard fought Hearns, Duran, and Hagler, and yet people claim he was scared of fighting Aaron Pryor.

    Leonard would've smoked Pryor.

    True De La Hoya would probably beat all of em, but he just didn't spend alot of time at junior welter.

    I think the top 3 in Pryor, Tszyu and JCC were long time 140lb champions and both Mayweather and DLH spent little time in this division and Mosley never even went there! These guys beat the best at 140lb in their era over a long period of time. Would Mayweather and DLH beat these 3 at 140lb? They would all be great fights!

    I agree that Leonard would probably have knocked out Pryor. Pryors kamikazi style would have worked well into Leonard's sharp shooting.
