Originally posted by ИATAS206 View PostLeonard was a big welterweight, so were hearns and Benitez. We are in an era of small welterweights - pac, floyd, cotto, none of these guys would be welterweights if they were in the same era as leonard and hearns, they'd be fighting at 140 or maybe even below. The only reason pac & floyd kept going up in weight is cause they could afford to and to chase bigger names.
duran would have fought anyone, though, no doubt.
a clydesdale too.
no catchweight.

Hell Leonard, Duran, Hagler, and even Benitez all fought each other. Floyd and Manny won't even fight each other but yet some people mention them in the above fighters class, which is a damn shame!
8 weight championships, 4 lineal titles. No one in history has done that and it may never be replicated again (and he's not done yet). There's a limit though.
Instead of whining and hating, try appreciating an atg.

you can't force a person to fight who's virtually retired and on 'vacation'. And what you're forgetting is that guys like leonard were massive welters whose frames allowed them to bulk up effectively. Even duran ballooned up to 200 plus lbs between fights. Pacquiao couldn't even make the welterweight limit for a junior middleweight fight. Think about that for a minute.

Leonard and Duran might not have the same kind of hunger if they fought in the age of $20mil paydays...
