God forgives, you are forgiven.
Lil g did duck him. That’s back when Lil g was running around talking that “154-168” nonsense and ward called his bluff. Infamous Lil g interview where he was asked about ward and he shook his head saying something to the effect “he’s too much for me”.

He also gave the dramatic motivational speech in Russia, as well as between rounds during the fight
“He’s not a machine, he’s a man!”
“All your strength, all your love, everything you got…this is your whole life here!!”

1979-82 Leonard is one of the best fighters ever captured on film. He’s also bigger than Floyd, who started at 130.
P4p speaking, peak Leonard still wins, but it’s much closer. Straight up at 147, then Leonard much easier, but I don’t think that’s quite a fair matchup for the smaller Floyd.

Seriously... I always tell people to watch round 14 of the Hearns fight and any thoughts they have about Sugar Ray immediately change. Dude seen red would he had his opponents hurt.
