Leonard never had great power he would take guys out with volume punches so IMO your criteria doesnt work for the only fighter that truely earned the right to be compared to the greatest fighter ever.

Mosely started at LW Ray & Ray started at WW 154 is a pretty high way to go up. Imagine Juan Diaz, Campbell or Marquez going up 154 to take on Forrest or Wright.
