      I would pick Leonard by KO.


      Well, can't argue with that. Whether Dundee said it because Leonard had already decided to fight Duran that way or because they thought it would give him the best chance, they did say it right there on the clip. That's odd, I've seen that fight before and don't remember hearing that, guess I wasn't paying attention lol

            Leonard proved over & over again that he could dig deep to ensure a victory
            - Floyd's only probably ever had to do that maybe once or twice, & the results weren't particularly impressive (Castillo).

            Leonard by late rounds KO - maybe behind slightly on points after early rounds due to Floyd's quick hands & movement, but Leonard bulls his way though, landing big punches from round 6.
            (Leonard also had one of the best chins of all time, & I don't see anything Floyd throws once Leonard gets determined slowing him down.
            Fight is at Welterweight)

              Sugar Ray Leonard fought some of the best welterweights ever known and impressive many. Lots of people grew up with Leonard and respect his skills a lot. Leonard brought speed, accuracy, heart, courage, toughness, technique, power, balance, stamina, ambition, and focus.

              Mayweather is the best of his era and is still proving how he fights on his own level. Mayweather brings so many skills to the table. His highlights are speed, accuracy, courage, toughness, technique, balance, stamina, focus, evasion, and defense.



              To me the only differences between the fighter was Leonard had the power, Mayweather has the defense. Defense always wins that battle 90% of the time so my pick is Mayweather is the most exciting 12 rounds of boxing ever witnessed.
              mayweather had courage? im not saying he didnt have heart but "courage" was not really an asset of his cuz he never really did anything... courageous.

              and you think that a floyd/leonard fight would be 12 of the most exciting rounds in boxing history? dude, the perfect word to describe you is:

                    1. theres a difference between courage and commitment.
                    2. if floyd tried his hardest in every fight, he would'vd knocked out every one of his opponents.

                    watch some boxing before you talk about boxing, plz.
