Sugar Ray Leonard won a title at Light HW, Can You Imagine A WW Doing That Now?

Yeah Hearns would have been a better example.

Hearns was a giant of a man so it isn't a huge surprise. He still dwarfs Leonard in real life.

My wife still the picture up of her and her dad at that fight.

Hearns was a giant of a man so it isn't a huge surprise. He still dwarfs Leonard in real life.

Hearns is 3 inches taller.

And it doesn't matter anyway Hearns started at Welterweight like Leonard and went up to Crusierweight whereas Leonard went to Super Middleweight.

What if Floyd fought Badou Jack for the SMW and LHW titles?

[No Tomorrow]

Hearns beating guys like Dennis Andries, Virgil Hill & Nate Miller is more boss to me

Welterweights are Midgets today compared to Ray Leonard and Hearns ERA

Ray Leonard was a legit 5'10 or 5'11, Hearns was 6'1

Welterweights Today? Mayweather 5'8, Pacquiao 5'6, Bradley, 5'5

Yep, and if THOSE guys were fighters among today's generation, guys such as Floyd, Pacquiao and Bradley wouldn't dare enter the WW division. They'd stay safely below at 140.

Paul Williams is the only recent WW to have the frame to move up that many weight classes and still have success. Obviously we'll never know, which is a crying shame.

SRR fought for the LHW title coming in at 157lbs. A mans balls matter more than their frame.

[VG_Addict]

SRR started at lightweight, and fought for the LHW title.

[MRCHOKEaMF]

Its still not greater than Roy Jones Jr, going from 154 champ to Heavyweight champ. YALL MUSTA FORGOT! LOL
