      Most boxers ended up with brain damage from the frequency of head trauma. Thers a very good reason they fight less frequency.

    Mr Floyd Mayweather Sr got the butter from the duck , but Ray Leonard's stamina couple with a few very powerful left hooks seemed to be the deciding factor , because unfortunately a great defense needs to be supported with a little offense at the end of the day. Leonard earned his money that particular night...

  • @johnsummers385
    @johnsummers385 Před 4 měsíci

    I always felt that Floyd Sr was dealing with stamina issues during that period. He was just as fast as Leonard and had a record of 28 wins with 23 by knockout. Note how his use of the shoulder roll neutralized Leonard's attack in this bout.

      True, Leonard was also dangerous if he had to fight. When Tommy was outboxing him, he resorted to fighting and caught Hearns with some great shots because Tommy was winning the boxing match which was unprecedented for Leonard who was best as a boxer with everyone else but a beast as well as a fighter.

    Ray showed how to fight by standing back and not just out punch himself. Pick a spot then unleash on him.

    This one sided beating of Mayweather Sr, (who had some skills and good stamina) gives us an insight into the Leonard/Maywether Jr question. No doubt that Leonard would have beaten Mayweather Jr - Too fast, Too strong, Too intelligent.

      Don’t be too certain; Leonard clearly had problems against the Philly shell defense used by a slower boxer who couldn’t punch. Jr is a much quicker boxer than Sr, mastered the Philly shell and punched harder. Sugar would have been in a war.

      no offense to sr. But he’s not as fast as jr, dosent counter punch as well, sure as hell has a lot slower feet as well as reflexes not to mention he just keeps his left hand by his hip and doesn’t move his head💀🤣and he doesn’t use his right to catch punches out of the Philly Shell. This doesn’t inform anything regarding Mayweather Jr and Sugar Ray Leonard, fighting Floyd Jr is a much much better fighter than Floyd sr was so it would definitely be a way harder fight for sure Ray Leonard than this one was. This is a crazy comment you must really hate Floyd jr man….🙄loser shit.

    Love these old fights too, but the skinny legs kill me😂😂. Nowadays though our fighters are so bulked up that they run out of steam so quickly. Heaven help them if they still had to do 15 rounds like these guys. I'd still watch to see who does the best bambi legs dance😅

    Aqui veo la famosa defensa del Shoulder Roll, defensa con el hombro. No se quien inventó esta defensa, pero ya Mayweather padre lo hacía y el hijo lo perfeccionó. El problema que veo en el padre, que esta muy erguido y Sugar Ray Leonard con los boleos de izquierda llegaba siempre. Sugar Ray Leonard ganó pero aprecié ese estilo de defensa en toda la pelea.
