    What makes Leonard dangerous for Floyd is that Sugar would find a way to hit Jr. with something. Guaranteed to find something that works in there being a thinker on the offensive end.. and being a natural WW, I don't see how Floyd gets a decision.

    As we saw against even a deadly Hearns, Ray became aggressive even against Tommy's threat of power when the pure boxing wasn't getting it done. So even Floyd being beat by a plan B isn't out of the question.

        I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind, especially since Manny can't even make 147.

                Sugar ray was a big welter. Ontop of that he had speed and power with great skill. Would pick him to beat pretty much all welters of today. To be fair most of the top welters of today are guys who have come up in weight to fight there. Its kinda like if Floyd or Manny were to retire....watch a guy like Donaire move up to 130lbs and have success then comment on how they would beat him at that weight.

                  Best WW today what a giant load of horse shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit , dude cant beat LWs - Jnr Welters and he cant beat WWs without CWs , the WW resume is full of scams , Ped allegations while refusing tests , cherry picking and ducking . he is a WW hype job , notice I said WW dont give the crap about Morelles and Barrera , Im more interested in CWs and fighters forced to use diuretics to make them .

                  And Leonard would destroy Manny , fkn destroy him at WW , Ray is every bit as good as Floyd and maybe better and is bigger than Floyd , against Manny its a blowout .

                      What? SRL fought at catchweights too .... so did your hero Floyd.

                      Sure, when Manny just jumped up several divisions and fought at WW, a catchweight was not something unexpected to ask for .... most people would understand (hint hint). When Manny fought Oscar and even against Cotto, people thought that Manny didn't belong at WW .... and team Manny was trying to figure that out as well.

                      Yes, Manny is a small WW and SRL would probably be too much for him ....... That said, Manny has gone up as far as 150, so why would 147 be a problem for Manny after fighting there for several years?
