Agree with most of this although I think he handles Leonard and Pryor ... stays close with Sweet Pea and struggles against Duran and Hearns.

Mayweather is twice the defensive fight SRL ever even thought to be.

Also I think Mayweather isn't different than most fighters out there right now as far as being risk adverse they all are looking for the easiest fight for the most money ... you put SRL in today's boxing world and he would be doing the same thing. SRL needed Duran and Hearns to make a big payday, nowadays they get 10 million for fighting a stiff.

That is why you just can't compare era's.
