  • Todays welterweights can`t be compared with Ray Sugar Leonard and Ray Sugar Robinson

    RSL and RSR were able to move up to middleweight and take on champs in wars.

    I can`t imagine Spence fighting GGG or Canelo. They both give him a terrible beating in one sided fight.

    Pacquiao is the best fighter at 147, but he is small man and he is already fighting 3 divisions above his natural division.

    There is no such monster as prime Hearns, RSL, RSR at 147 nowadays.

    There aren't too many welterweights in the history of the sport who compare to Sugar Ray Robinson and Sugar Ray Leonard.

      Saying Spence and Crawford aren't as good as Robinson and Leonard isn't that big of a call but ok

              Do you want to enjoy excellent fighters Spence and Crawford or wine that they aren't as good as two all time great boxers, one who is long dead and the other in his 60s.
              SRR lost his middleweight title to a welterweight. SRL lost every round to Terry Norris when he was 35 years old. Prime
              SRL lost to a lightweight champ moving up to welterweight named Roberto Duran. Neither Ray Robinson nor Leonard were perfect and they could be defeated as Robinson was 19 times. Watch old films of Leonard and Robinson if you are so dissatisfied with today's good welterweights. There is lots of film of their fights. Why do you say Pacquiao is now the best fighter at 147??? He is still good but he is very old and would be the underdog by the oddsmakers if he fought either Spence or Crawford because they would likely beat Pacquiao.

                    You're aware Sugar Ray Leonard didn't use HGH or steroids like previous Welterweights have today so 35 back than was old Today you Have Mr IV Flush abusing HGH and steroids to fight past 35 than you have the other Welterweight Champ who's 40 and he still can't explain why his head size doubled in adulthood . Use your critical thinking skills for a change
