Who Did Sugar Ray Leonard Duck?

Leonard offered Pryor a career high payday. Way more than he ever made. Pryor mentioned it after the Dujaun Johnson fight I believe. He wanted more money. Hagler fough 2 divisons higher than Leonard. Don't know how that was a duck
I'm a Leonard fan. So I might be a little bias. Dude fought 4 ATG's. That says a lot to me

Leonard was also smart in challenging Duran right away after he lost knowing Duran likes to balloon up in between fights...
Regardless Leonard did his job and won against Marvelous and Duran...
Just sayin'....

Pryor's previous career high payday was like 40 or 50k for the Cervantes fight. Leonard offered him 500k. Just for comparisons, bigger names like Benitez got $1.2 mil, Duran got a mil and a half, and lesser known champs like Kalule got $250k.
Leonard says that he saw Mugabi, a "pure slugger", outbox Hagler. I didn't see that as I saw Hagler outjabbing the crap out of Mugabi and then beating him up inside, although Hagler surely took his lumps. Maybe Ray just saw what he wanted to see.
