ray leodard has wins vs tommy hearns, marvin hagler, roberto duran, wilfred benitez...
floyd's best win is either diego corrales or a past prime injured pacquiao.

These guys are making these videos criticizing ATG fighters simply to make Mayweather appear to be the best fighter ever. You can say what you want about Leonard, he fought other legends and beat them. You can't name a more dangerous welterweight in their prime at 147 than Thomas Hearns. Ray fought him at his best, beat him, and was injured in the process. He was never the same fighter afterwards. After that fight, Sugar Ray Leonard, the fighter, focused more on Ray Leonard, the business man. Why wouldn't he wait for Hagler to slow down??? How can anyone with good sense say that a natural welterweight was ducking arguable the best middleweight champion ever??? The guy in the video claims Ray ducked McCallum, Nunn, and Barkley. Once again, a natural welterweight was ducking natural middleweights??? Simply doesn't make any sense. My next question. Why would a retired fighter with an injured eye come back to fight dangerous guys like Curry and Brown, who don't bring much to the table business wise, when there were big money rematches out there with Hearns and Duran??? Boxing is a business, right??? Without the injury and retirement, there is no doubt in my mind that Ray would have fought those guys. Ray in his prime was a serious competitor who wanted to be the best. There is no way in hell he would have another fighter walking around at his weight thinking they were better than him without proving it. And then, at 34 years old, he fights Terry Norris, who at that point was more dangerous than any of the guys they claim he was ducking. Norris ended up being a hall of famer and is considered by many to be one of the best jr middleweights ever. So quit with all that Leonard ducking talk. Ducking for what??????? You fight a monster in Hagler, who was knocking everyone out. You fight a monster in Hearns, who was knocking everyone out. You fight a monster in Duran, who was just moving up and arguably the best lightweight ever. You fight a defensive young wizard and champion in Benitez. And then to end your career, you fight a young viscous lion in Terry Norris. That resume defines a fierce champion with a lot of heart, not a ducker.Comment

I got no respect for Sugar Ray 1. because he started the whole cherrypicking diva bullshyt and 2. because he allowed himself to be sexually abused like a weak little bytch. BUT, Floyd Mayweather is not even close to being on Leonard's level. Floyd never beat a great fighter in his prime.Comment
