[@hammer44head]

This has got to be the best comment thread I've come across on YT. Willie had quite an impact on people he met and family. So cool to read the comments on here.

[@rodriguez71100]

awww....my daddy Willie Fireball. I didn't think this was on KZbin. I was just 5 when this happened. My dad doesn't think he is all that but what he should know...is that he is. Love my dad xoxo

[@SanDiegosGreatest]

Yo real talk your pops was whooping Rays ass in Rds 45 and even got him some in the 6th while Rocked. This was a really good fight.

[@tomsimpson6044]

I played basketball against Willie in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the late 1960s. He played for St. Mary's and I played for Sacred Heart. Great fight against Leonard! Where is Willie now? How is he?

[@christopherharrington778]

Alicia Gonzalez your dad was a really good fighter, I was actually pretty amazed how he fought the great Sugar Ray Leonard. Great fight.

[@jonstrickland4848]

Alicia Gonzalez He did very well against possibly the best welter weight of all time. You should be proud. It’s a tough living. 😉

@@christopherharrington778 Sugar Ray, para mí, fue como boxeador lomejor.

[@abudujana13]

'SUGAR' Ray Leonard was known has a pretty boy boxer, but he was just has vicious has Mike Tyson at times! Thanks for the video, Gatto Volante

[@mozfonky]

be proud, ray listed him as a fighter who really seriously hurt him in a mid eighties interview.

[@williamdelong1936]

I was a 16yr old kid who they would throw in the ring as fresh meat. Am pro gym on 7th st in Allentown Pa. Willie was a hero in my mind going the distance against Ray. Willie could have knocked me out sparring many times but he was a good guy. I remember he was impossible to hit and could hit you from anywhere. Tough guy in the ring but the nicest guy outside the ring! Willie fucked Ray up a couple of times. Ray Leonard was a hero to me as well. Two great fighters!

[@onblock7]

Yeah Ray won but the dude hung in there and slugged it out, this was a good fight here. Respect.

[@RUFFRYDERUSH]

WoW!!!! I can't belive I found this! My Uncle Willie going toe 2 toe with Sugar Ray. Great Fight Tio! Frenchie

[@gAYCUNT-zt3qo]

think your cousin is also in this comment section lol. He was a very good fighter

[@Rentaghost76]

Dang, tough opponent for Sugar Ray's 2nd fight! Respect

[@timothysiegfried4338]

I grew up watching Willie fight live in Allentown. Howard Davis ducked him after Willie's second fight with Rufous Miller. I waited 36 years to see this fight.

[@Leadsled04]

willie rod was my first boss doing tree work, hes a great guy to work with.

[@brianmitchell8203]

used to play tennis with Willie at the Jordan Park tennis courts in Allentown. I remember the big bandage he wore over one eye at one point after a big fight, maybe this one. Give him my fond regards Alicia. Great guy!

[@aliciagonzalez7854]

I just saw your message. I will let my dad know what you said.

[@brianmitchell8203]

@@aliciagonzalez7854 I'm seeing you responded four hours ago. I was sure you had written me sometime prior. But it's a hell of a coincidence because, after watching the big Spence-Crawford fight together last weekend, I forwarded a friend the You Tube fight of your dad vs Leonard. He was suitably impressed.

[@daboss000]

Tough gritty fight good learning experience for Ray Leonard as his career went on

[@MrBloopville]

Fireball was a very good fighter. He fought lots of good fighters and won some minor titles.

[@jeremysipes44]

Future USBA Jr.Welterweight Titleist. Leonard was matched with a tough and diverse set of opponents while climbing the ladder.They helped him when times got tough later in his career.

[@williejeanfrancois1681]

His book brought me here he stated ame/ pro striking difference love that sugar ray🥊🥇🇺🇸

[@gustavobravo3441]

Ali, Leonard los mejores boxeadores de la historia...LEJOS

[@richardceballos216]

What’s boxer was Sugar Ray Leonard wao increíble boxer.. we not gonna see another boxer like him no more in the history the greatest of all time complete fighter

[@AliDaPoet_Hungry4Knowledge]

This had to be one of Rays toughest fights I seen ...

[@ckobo84]

??? Ray was destroying him the first 3 rounds and he was only saved by the standing 8 count. The judges didn't give him a single round.

[@marcbrisebois4301]

hotboxing withb mike tyson-ray says he still remembers getting hit by willie fireball rodriguez

[@josephjohnson3361]

Fireball Willie is a game fighter.

[@asmrcritique6565]

A much tougher fight for Leonard than in his first fight, and this is the first time that he was ever hurt in a pro boxing!!!

[@michaelscott751]

rodriguez is one tuf dude

[@jonbathurst953]

Rodriguez was a c class fighter for his time yet look how good he is. Just a better era.

[@mechagojira6951]

Good test for Sugar it being only his 2nd pro fight...Willie was saved in the 3rd w the standing 8 count or he was going down then the bell but good tough test for Sugar.

[@bobbyohalterego4102]

Rodriguez was a tough competitor for Leonard that fight

[@leewilcox5848]

I don't know what fight that announcer was watching but it was not close.

[@ParisRoller11]

Hmmm. I Wonder What Ever Happened To Ray Jr?.

[@amck72]

Ray Jr is out there, a little messed up in the head, doesn`t speak to his dad much cause he use to see his dad whoop his mom`s ass. If you google him, a few articles will pop up/

[@paulgarcia9825]

The referee jumped in just as Leonard was pounding Willy into oblivion. Ray spent all his energy anticipating the knockout.

[@lincolnmunguia888]

Que buena pelea le hizo Willie Rodriguez a Leonard.

[@andreaselleri400]

Ma va..Leonard l'ha distrutto

[@coreyrowland]

Willie ain't half bad, times Ray up multiple time in this fight. Honestly skill wise they look fairly even at this point in Ray's career, but seems he's just a little behind in sheer athleticism, either that or wasn't moving with the same urgency as Ray.

[@diegopavon8071]

está ree cansado sugar si pero de pegar q capo no ahí otro como el

[@TheBest-sd2qf]

Damn Rodriquez had SRL gunshy and confused

[@marymadden8540]

[@tipoftheiceberg7034]

Very one sided commentary

[@marcosberaha9014]

Two more rounds and ray ko him

[@anthonygilmore5969]

This guy has no muscle tone. You need developed muscle in order to compete against ray.

[@bigdaddy4069]

Muscle tone means absolutely NOTHING.

[@onanayeoluwatosin206]

Rodriguez won this fight
