    Leonard is lightyears greater than Floyd, not just because of his boxing skills, but because he was a classy guy out of the ring too. When Floyd finally loses, the bubble will be burst. There'll be no more serious talk of being "the greatest of all time" and all that crap. He's done this to himself, with all his bigmouthing and cherrypicking.

        ...Like i said, and i wont say it again, Leonard is more hittable than Mayweather, there are no "blinkers on" im telling you this from my experiance in having seen every single one of his key fights, Leonard was far more hittable than mayweather because he was more offensive minded. Mayweather gets hit flush about as often as whitaker, meaning not that often. Mayweather resembles whitaker moreso than leonard because leonard as i said, was offense first.

        Not to mention, leonard did alot more showboating than mayweather, the comparison is kind of ****** in my opinion, they arent the same type of fighter other than theyre black, and theyre fast.

          Hearns , Benitez, Kalule, Lalonde, Ranzany

          ...all great KO's which were exciting and captivating.

          Leonard is a Ferrari, and Floyd is a Jetta.

            Different era's different fighters different times. You have to go to one the all time great fighters to discredit someone who is STILL FIGHTING. Man people have nothing better to do?

              No he is right Leonard uses his athletic abilty to avoid punches Mayweather has the better defense but Leonard is overall better.

                  benitez could outbox him
                  hearns would blast him
                  hagler would blast him
                  and duran would blast him
                  the only one i think he can beat is benitez

                    Well its totally unfair to compare him against Hagler Mayweather never fought at Middleweight that match up would never happen i agree with Hearns.

                    But i disagree with you about Duran i mean Duran was ATG but he struggled with fast fighters i think your forgetting Duran was completey outboxed by Kirkland Laing who was an average fighter he was also outboxed by Wilfredo Benitez and was also outboxed by average Robbie Simms and was completey confused and outboxed by Leonard in the rematch style wise Mayweather can beat Duran.
