Although yeah I should have just written "each wins under their respective rules" as a third option, but the poll is automatically 4 options and i was quickly making the thread etc
but whatever, it's not a big deal, just vote for one of them

Originally posted by wmute View PostComparing 2009 JMM and 1980 Duran is ludicrous (comparing their prime versions is not ludicrous, but still wrong IMO), it goes in fact beyond nuthugging, I am a bit shocked that even Horus went as far as that. But comparing Mayweather to Leonard seems fine (I do it all the time, but not for the good things they did, more the bad ones). The last line of your sig can make ppl think that you will be negatively biased whenever it comes to Mayweather, and positively when it comes to Leonard. I am thinking that this is why your post on Mayweather brittle hands went unnoticed.
Comparing what Marquez is to Floyd to what Duran was to Leonard is like comparing a new Ferrarri with an old Volkswagen on flat tires.

For the record I think they both have balls, but they both like their money more than anything, and rightfully so, if I may add. I think their only difference is the image with which they sell.
I can spend a long time putting down Leonard, because he piled up a considerable number of evidence which makes that easy. But, just like with Mayweather or any other great fighter, I would rather talk about the fighting, not the politics, negotiations, ducking and so on.

What is not different is that at the very elite levels of any sport, each athlete has spent so many hours doing the same thing every day that it all becomes second nature. They don't have to think any more. They just do. When Mayweather sees a left hook coming at his body, he instinctively reacts by dropping and tucking his right elbow and then shooting a right uppercut, or straight right counter. It has developed over his whole life and can't be changed. It is the same with what Gans does.
Mayweather would really struggle to go more than fifteen rounds and he would struggle with that even in a real fight. That number one guy that was used to 10K would be done by the 15th in a real race. His legs just wouldn't have the same understanding after those ten. His whole body would be in a different zone that what it has been used to for his whole career.
Both guys win under their own rules.
