Bernard Hopkins: Sugar Ray Leonard would be considered boring today

[ßringer]

Hagler/Leonard is the most boring "super fight" I've ever seen.

worse than Wlad/povetkin?

Thinking about that whole ordeal playing out in the internet age always makes me laugh. It would be worth the boring super fight imo watching people totally lose it

[Tiny tyson]

It's not just black fighters, it's slick fighters or defensive.

Some have a shell defence like Abraham, who people say are boring.
Wlad is boring, because he is defensive and rarely gets hit flush.

The general fans love a tear up, and that is how it is and always will be.

just stating what he said.

hopkins wishes he was leonard... and he'll never be ranked as high in history as leonard

[Rome-By-Ko]

If he fought like he did against Duran in their rematch and Hagler...YEAH!

But I totally get what B-Hop is saying and I agree with him for the most part and more fighters should speak up on it, defend your style, don't try to change it and be like the rest because HBO and Lampley wants you to Brawl More

I agree with this..

[Ray*]

I really doubt it, Ray alway throw. He wasn't just a Jab and right hand guy, but then again the generation of fans that we have now doesn't leave a lot to desire.

[bojangles1987]

I'm assuming these are the same comments I read before, and this is completely wrong. Sugar Ray Leonard was not the least bit boring, and would not be considered so now.

[IronDanHamza]

I'd doubt it.

Leonard was a fighter.

they were both at the very end of the line. hagler had started to show his age, and leonard had been out of the ring for several years.


in their primes they were exciting fighters, even if they both had a tendency to box.
