    That was hilarious . That's a great fight to watch btw from a technical stand point. Gonna watch and score it right now.

          I'll have to do it later, I stopped watching after round 2. Had to do something else.

            When I scored it I had Leonard up by 4 or so points.

              (Mayweather jr, Robinson, Trinidad, Griffin, Napoles, Gavilian, Armstrong, Norris, Whitaker, etc.)
              Anyone feel like weighing in on this?

                Problem with a lot of them is the match-ups are very close.

                I think he would lose in a close fight to Robinson, possibly Armstrong.

                Griffith, Gavilan and Napoles etc would be skillful battles for the purists and I really don't want to call any of these match-ups.

                I'd not count Benitez out of any given match-up when he was on his best day.

                  The Maurice Hope staredown is strange as well when he pushes him. Really trying to psyche him out and from Hope's face as he went to his corner to start the bout it seemed to have worked.

                    Norris and Trinidad I feel he could outbox. Norris would've been stopped late imo.

                      Yeah I can see that. Also I feel at Welterweight the odds are in his favour against Pernell and Mayweather. Although I would by no means swear by it.
