Mosley vs Forrest compared to Leonard vs Hearns

[DBSLM]

I think vernon is more comparable to hearns than mosley is to leonard.

Thats true. Vernon had that lanky build of Tommy's and his jabbing/powerpunching style. Shane and Ray, the things they got in common is the speed and the chin, both could take a punch. Aside from that, Shane is just kinda too big and strong physically to be compared to Ray. Plus he's more of a puncher than Ray was.

No, he isn't. Once he left 135 Shane's power was good, but not excellent. Certainly not on the level of Ray Leonard.

And just how many guys did Leonard ko with one punch?

How many fighters on the level of Hearns and Benitez did Mosley ever stop? How many top welterweights did Mosley stop in this way?

Your claim that Mosley is bigger than Leonard is fiction and there is nothing that can verify that he's stronger than Leonard was.

Mosley's career ranged from 135-154, while Ray was between 147-168. So since Leonard was slightly taller there really is no doubt who the bigger fighter was.

Shane is reputedly extremely strong for his size, so I could believe he has an edge there.

Please! Leonard had 3 fights at 168, 1 of them against a former lightweight, Duran. That he could make the weight doesnt mean he was bigger or stronger than Mosley, who could also surely make that weight if he wanted to but didn't think he'd be effective at it. And those 2 knockouts doesnt convince me he had one punch power. Everyone can get a little lucky.

You just crashed the thread yourself by bringing Mayweather into it.

Cheeky!!

This isn't NSB you know........

It's obvious that you dip into fiction and fantasy when your agenda blows up in your face. Leonard fought from 147 to 168. Mosley fought from 135-154. Those are facts that your mindless speculation can't change. Who's bigger? Do the math. Leonard was far more successful above 147 than Mosley for a reason.




Your claim that Leonard was " lucky " to score his knockouts is just an example of the ******ity expected from you.
