Tszyu did not his "quite a bit harder" than Sugar Ray Leonard. That's ridiculous. What can you even base that on considering Tszyu never fought above the 140 pound division? Tszyu didn't knock out Hatton with his punches. And Hatton would never go the distance with Ray Leonard under any circumstances.

Funny how people only seem to remember the "shoe shining" Ray Leonard that fought Hagler and not the brutal punching Ray Leonard from before his first "retirement" :dunno9:

He could definitely hurt you, and he was as great a finisher as anyone in the sport's history.

I'm not not at all a fan of Oscar but Benny isn't beating him 'easily' either, Oscar is good enough to give any Lightweight a half decent fight.Last edited by NChristo; 10-19-2011, 03:07 PM.

Stopped by who?
Oscar was stopped by Hopkins at 160, and then when he was ludicrously shot, by Pacquiao. Benny Leonard would not stop Oscar, and Tszyu wouldn't either.
Shane Mosley and Trinidad couldn't drop or stop him....seriously doubt Tszyu does. They were both bigger and better than Kostya.
