@MyUpBoo Don't insult the fighters of my time, Leonard, Pryor, Hearns, Benitez, Palimino, and on and on to todays scrubbs, Delahoya, and Mayweather would have been contenders and nothing more, Oh maybe sparring pardners.

Benitez, Duran, Haglar, Hearns and Leonard, those guys were great. It would be interesting to see how De'Lahoya, Hopkins, Mayweather and some of the other present day greats would fair against the 1980s fabulous 5. By the way, Mike McCallum was just as good as the fabulous 5, but they excluded Mike from the club, by staying away from him.

@MoonyWeller i like hearns to but i think benitez won dis fight flirt punches don win fights real charp punche s do thoses were flirt punches that look pretty

@tico1289 you don't win fights defensively. He did great as he did with Leonard, but again Hearns landed more like Leonard did 2 years before. Benitez was great but Hearns was also. Hearns landed his jab more and controlled the action.

wilfredo benitez won this fight with pure defensive skills
-
oh my god

Poor Hearns, having a real hard time expressing himself, trying to formulate his words correctly, too bad his speech got much worse as time went on.....
-
@chifuli1974 true but when he fought leonard he didnt traind for it and put a good fight if he traind he would had the win.
-
Total and utter class
-
furthermore he made Duran look like an amateur for 15 rounds...
The judge who scored this fight even should never have been allowed to judge another fight. Even given that judging is subjective, this guy is nuts. Bad judging is a real problem in boxing.

I think Ray Robinson would have beaten him in a good fight.
