WBC World Welterweight champion Wilfred Benitez (38-0-1) defends his belt against the 1976 Olympic Welterweight Gold Medalist and then current NABF Welterweight champion, Sugar Ray Leonard (25-0).  Both undefeated and evenly matched, this would be a very close and scientific fight. 

I don't need to add anymore info about this fight as Sam Rosen and Al Bernstein do a good enough job in the video.  Thanks guys you saved me a lot of typing and research!
