what do you think of Sugar Ray Leonard?

[Hunna]

Leonard will always be remembered as a great fighter, but not the "greatest". SGL had alot of skills, but could not go toe-2-toe in my eyes. Look what happened when he tried to collide with Duran in the 1st fight. His speed and showmanship were a spectacle to watch.

what exactly happened when he went toe to toe with duran ? he lost on all cards by a single round and i had the fight a draw when leonard closed the show out in the 15th. i dont have a problem with duran winning because ray let his emotions get the best of him but when focused he could box circles around duran.

he beat hagler which is embarrassing to marvin the guy was retired and out of it. coming up to middleweight champ and out pointing him. this just proved how great he is. just because hagler wasnt getting hurt doesnt mean points arent scored. he bounced so many combination off that bowling ball head theres no way i can find 7 rounds that marvin won.

he lost the rematch to hearns, great fight, he showed a lot of heart almost stopping tommy in the 12.

i would say he is a good fighter

Cut the crap, he was a great fighter. but there are others who were better. he fought as a light-heavy for gods sake and still retained his speed.

sugar ray robinson is the all time greatest sugar. and mosely shouldn't even be considered.

[ghostdancer]

there is no denying him as a boxer but for me it whent sour when he was allowed to fight hagler who i liked very much leonard had not earned the right at the weight but we cannot blame him for that blame the powers in boxing and it ain't the fighters

Arguably one of the top-ten greatest fighters of all time. Awesome in his prime. But the original 'Sugar' would have beaten him!

[Lol999]

I watched the Hagler fight and I didn't like Leonards approach at all. No doubting his skill, but it's not the way I like my fighrts to fight. You could see the frustration pouring off Hagler. Leonard should have taken running shoes in with him.

Thats true but a fighter is defined by who he fights and how he does. I think Sugar is top 5 greatest of all time.
