No way, Conlon smokes Leo. He has the power to hurt him, LSC doesn't. Great brawl of a fight though.
Conlan has one fight on the world level, and that was against TJ Doheny who was coming off a loss and had lost two out of his previous three coming into the fight.
Santa Cruz has wins over Abner Mares twice, Carl Frampton, Victor Terrazas, Kiko Martinez, Cristian Mijares, Alexander Munoz, and Eric Morel. Every one of them a former, current, and/or future world champion.

Leo Santa Cruz stopped Morel, Munoz, Terrazas, and Kiko. All champions. Terrazas was #1 at TBRB and reigning WBC champion when Santa Cruz stopped him.
Yeah I know but Morel and Munoz were past it and undersized at that point. Terrazas is an ok win but he ended up not doing much after that. Reason I mentioned Kiko is because of what he was able to do recently.

Point taken on Morrell and Munoz, but as Kiko himself proved, you can never take a former champ lightly.
Terrazas took three years off after Santa Cruz. But at the time of the fight he was riding an 11 fight winning streak, ranked #1, had just beaten Mijares for the title, and had also beaten Montiel a year and charge earlier. It was a fantastic win for Santa Cruz at the time. Terrazas coming out of retirement and losing some fights later doesn't change the context of the fight when it took place.
