Who wins between Oscar De La Hoya and Sugar Ray Leonard at Welterweight?

Both fighters were Olympic Gold Medalists. Both are 5'10. Ray has a once inch reach advantage over Oscar. 74 vs 73 inches.

So, who wins?

How do they win?

Would it be a good fight, or a boring chess match?

Your opinions please.

    Ray Leonard would have given Oscar a boxing lesson, Oscar would have followed Ray aroiund for 12 rounds and Leonard would have walked away with an easy decision.

    Without a doubt, sugar ray Leonard. N if it was a chess match, why would that be boring? To box, u need to have good technical ability where as anyone can just get into a scrap n throw wild punches
