    While Ray Leonard was extremely talented I HIGHLY doubt he could handle Roy Jones Jr. at 160...MAYBE 154 but the pop that RJJ had plus the speed and accuracy...I just think RJJ would have been too much for him. If Tommy Hearns gave Ray fits then RJJ would have been hell for him.

    Good post.

    I agree 100% Ray Leonard is one of the very few I would consider in the same league as Jones p4p but a straight one on one at 160?? Jones takes him apart IMO.

    In answer to the thread question, I'd say RJJ and the prior to that Pernel Whitaker, I would arguable have all 3 as p4p top 10 all time.
