yeah..i kinda agree with that. only thing is srl had crazy fast hands and might be able to set up a counter that may don't see and kd him. but yeah I think could outbox srl.

its hard. each fighter matches up diff with each fighter. that's why styles/physical/intangible attributes make fights n shyt.

Ain't no better Boxer than SRL...there's no next level, he was maxed out. Floyd is also top of the line offensively.


This is like comparing a Bentley vs Maybach as to which better....it's strictly preference when you reach that level:heh:

Floyd is not a better Boxer than Sugar Ray Leonard. He's better defensively, but offensively hell nah...come on bro:usure:

They are both A+ offensively....weren't no holes in Sugar Ray's offensive game.


yeah that's what I mean to say. but srl was a combo machine way more than pbl......

I don't agree

Zab outsmarted him but Zab was also a southpaw as well as slick.

But like I said, Floyd finds a way to beat nikkas. Zab was the only person I seen outbox him on the slick side and that was just temporarily

Floyd also called out DLH too, back when he was Pretty Boy Floyd and DLH dismissed him. It wasn't until he became a shyt talking a$$hole did people want to fight him like that

I know Floyd called him out...he called out Mosley too. Risk didn't equal reward for them, so they avoided him.

Regardless breh, Judah is one of the least intelligent top Welterweights of this era (last 30 years), so if he could outsmart Floyd for half a fight...then Sweet Pea would've had Floyd looking silly, DLH would've gave him that work, and Trinidad would've busted him up being that they were all MUCH more intelligent than Judah was between those ropes.

However, Judah is the only prime Welterweight Floyd ever faced...and Judah won 4 of the 1st 6 rounds by "out smarting Floyd". If prime Judah could outsmart him for 4 of the 1st 6 rounds, then imagine the card vs a prime SRL/Duran/Hearns/Sweet Pea/DLH/Tito?:ohhh:


That's all I'm saying....we all know Judah loses badly to all 6 of them in their prime:mjpls:

I disagree I think Floyd was more well rounded. I personally think versatility is the goat attribute in the ring. But since srl went all the way up to 160 and is ATG at 160 he too big for floyd

Prime Hearns is a GOAT offensively as well...only weakness he had was chin. No holes in his offensive game either.

We talking about GOATS here at the end of the day...we gotta put respect on their names bc ain't no WWs today better than anyone we debating right now in their primes:wow:

We were spoiled:mjcry:

offensively no, leonard threw better combos and better hand speed.
but overall package, i think floyd is better. i wouldnt consider leonard a plus defensive fighter
plus when it comes to adjustments, ring smarts, etc, i would give floyd the nod.
cant go wrong with either of them
