Ray Leonard vs Ray Robinson - Robinson by dec in a tactical battle.
Ricardo Lopez vs Michael Carbajal -Lopez by late stoppage due to cuts.
Thomas Hearns vs Felix Trinidad - Both tast the canvas but Hearns prevails by devastating KO in 5.

Both taste the canvas?
I highly doubt that.
Hearns has more skills, better power, and his chin is atleast as good, if not better... And that's his WEAK POINT. That just shows you how good Hearns is. He has a pretty decent chin, and it's his weak point.
Trinidad is one dimensional. Hearns would wax him fast.

Yes i agree Tantum Hearns chins was way better than Tito's but Hearns was hurt and dropped by Leonard and Tito is a bigger Puncher so you can rest assure that if he lands a solid one on the chin Hearns can go down, but overall i do agree with you Hearns wins it by KO.

not sure what the attraction to this one would be?
(I'd watch it, though...***fight junky!***)

Earnie Shavers vs Mike Weaver would be good because Weaver was an excellent puncher in his own right (scuse the pun!) and if he survived the early rounds against Shavers then it would become very interesting indeed. It'd be a lot like Shavers vs Lyle. My pick would be Shavers, but it'd be worth watching... multiple knockdowns and all!...
