    Did Napoles even fight at 154? Either way, I think he loses by stoppage.

    He fought Monzon at 153.5 or something like that

    Leonard ducks him for as long as possible. When he's finally forced to fight him, he manages to eke out an SD or rally from behind to get a late KO, then he refuses to rematch him

    The 147 fight would be amazing, barring Napoles' suffering some un-manageable cut

    Napoles looked pretty meek around 154... some of that is Monzon, but you have to figure some of it was him as he never bothered with that high a weight at any other time

    Very close. I think Leonard is better at doing the little things which get the eyes of the judges and could probably be the difference.
