- Leonard is almost always held as the top lightweight of all time and makes most p4p lists.
Have to consult with a gaggle of Rabbis to determine who was the best Jewish lightweight though.

My vote is for Leonard, but Ross is criminally under-estimated in a lot of forums, & should really get more due all-round.

Would have been a helluva fight. Have to to go with Leonard. Ross and his available fights with McClarnin and Canzoneri remain some of my favorite fight films of all time.
