I gotta say Ray Leonard, but its close considering Ray took that time off.
Better Resume Sugar Ray Leonard or Roberto Duran?

Duran, fabulous record at lightweight, stepped up to welter and beat SRL.
SRL only beat a 70% Duran in the rematch where Duran blew up to over 200lbs in those 6 months.
SRL then failed to give Duran a rubber match till they were both old men.
Duran for meComment

Maybe because some of his well known fights at welter and above his lightweight career gets over looked.
His lightweight reign is more impressive than Hagler's middleweight reign, just by itself.Comment

Dominated twice ?, the 2nd fight was even until Duran walked out, if anything Duran 'dominated' (if we have to use the word) Leonard in the 1st fight and the 3rd just an embarrassment which should not of happened.Comment

I've seen the Hagler fight, B. I watched it 3 days. Ago it was a shut-out. Hagler won near every round and it seemed like he was almost sparring at times.
SRL was humiliating him in the second fight. Duran cried after the fight. It was so bad he got locked up in Panama.Comment

I find it increasingly hard to respond to the reading impaired sometimes.But let me say again,he MAY have been the best.See??May,not that he was.I like how U casually forgot to mention who it was that gave SRL his 1st professional loss.U might wanna go look that up though.Comment
