No one has compared Floyd Mayweather Jr to Sugar Ray Leonard maybe Pernell Whitaker because there both defensive geniuses, but i haven't see anyone on this forum compare Mayweather to Leonard ever.

Yet again sorry if i was misleading i ment them fighting one another what i meant i do not think PBF should be based on how well he would do against the likes of Hearns and SRL if they fought at welterwiegth who would win i think Mosley or Oscar fighting at SFW or LW is better more relistic fights.

Im not sure what what your getting at personally. Floyd Mayweather Jr would have gave Sugar Ray Leonard fits, remember Mayweather's dad did win rounds off Leonard, im not saying Mayweather would win i think Leonard wins a close decision but it would a closely contested fight i know that for certain, and i think Hearns wins a UD as well. But Hearns is a bad style match up for anyone at Welterweight even the great Sugar Ray Robinson would have stylistic problems with Hearns, but if Hearns had stronger legs and a better chin he would have been unbeatable at Welterweight.

When it comes to PBF and you talk fantasy fights i would think for PBf would be better gaged at his best weights and the weights he achived. So when i think PBF facing some one i am thinking the greats from the SFW and LW because he did his best work there and seem to be his best. Welter weight for me when i think PBf was a weight divsion he never really touched but time while tell does that make sense of still not making sense.

Floyd Mayweather Jr at Super Featherweight was unbeatable IMO.
