Ray Leonard defeated Marvin Hagler (!)

Muhammad Ali was the best heavyweight in the world from 1974 onwards.

I get the chin thing but do that many people say Hearns couldn't box?

No, I guess not, but people forget that he was the only man to completely outbox the great Ray leonard in his prime. People think of him more as a one-hit puncher only.

This is true... When you think of Tommy you don't think of pernel whitiker... But about outboxing Ray... It happened...
