He said something about his corner (Gil Clancy) even saying that "Let him punch, he won't be able to last like this past a few rounds" and then suddenly it was starting to get late in the fight, round the 10th etc, and he wasn't slowing down at all. He said he just couldn't believe that he could keep up such ferocity and intensity and it was that more than anything that made him realise what a fighter he was.

Duran was to later come after Leonard with the same urgency and reckless abandon with which he came after Buchanan, not unlike Aaron Pryor's Kama Kazi style.
Includes Duran/Buchanan reunion and kissfest. Duran is as affectionate here as he was vicious above.
