I cant name not even one credible opponent besides de leon and gonzalez
He mostly fought the best in Asia early in his career. There was not a lot of Asians that fought in the U.S. during that time....it's the forgotten continent in boxing, until Pac came.

The best in Asia? sort of like the best of Europe where none of them come to the US to prove themselves and when they do they get exposed? sort of like Turdsack?
Pryor did everything he possibly could to get Leonard in the ring, and Ray alawys blew him off.
I'm not saying Ray was afraid of Aaron, I really don't know. But the way he always blew him off kind of implied it.
There always seemed to me, that there was more to it than a simple case of guys who unfortunately never fought.
Pryor was offered $500,000 for a Leonard fight (according to an excellent Sports Illustrated article on Pryor in 1982), but Pryor wasn't happy with the deal.

I know, I was trying to get Ryan's opinion on the fiasco.
Personally I think Leonard would've whipped his ass, but I'm a big Hawk fan as well.
