Leonard had a short prime, but from 1979-82, he was one of the best fighters to ever be filmed. Complete package, plus he was naturally bigger than Floyd who started off at 130. Whitaker-Mayweather is a closer matchup. In their primes I pick Whitaker to win a close decision due to workrate and his jab. However Floyd had much more longevity than Whitaker, he was more disciplined in training and didn’t abuse his body with coke.
