The evidence? When was the last time you saw a great fighter quit a fight just cause he was out of shape?!

It was close to degree, Duran still won the fight clearly.
The second fight wasn't even the domination you're acting like it was either.
And the 3rd fight?
The fact is, when both of them fought each other when both of them were at their absolute best, Duran won the fight. Hard to say that's a guy who had his number.
