Roberto Duran vs Keith Thurman @ welterweight

Who would in a fight between an ATG or someone scratching into the top 10 at welterweight? LMAO My thoughts exactly. It makes me realize people REALLLLLLYY haven't watched some of these great great fighters.

Right now it's obvious Duran would win this fight. Duran is simply 100% proven and often in people's p4p top 10 of all time, usually around #5. Thurman has a lot of talent and I think it'd be a good fight. Give it 10+ years before anyone can say anything for sure about Keith really winning that fight though.

I think you are over-estimating the wit and intelligence of the posters who start these threads. A lot of them believe this stuff. :lol1: Sadly, you could very well be right.

Seriously? Troll thread!:boxing: One time by k.o. Lol:hail:

Thurman first round KO. Finally someone injects some humor into this thread! This is the best comment on this thread. Why make these lame comparisons, 2 different eras. You had Duran in the REAL boxing era where they battled for 15 rounds and still wanted to go another 10! Guys today go 12 and can barely make it with a pulse past 8 rounds. In all seriousness Duran would be indicted for murder after the fight for brutalizing Thurman for the 3 rounds it would last!:spank:

On a serious note it's hard to see too many of these current welterweight contenders being major figures in the sport in the years to come. Brook, Thurman, Porter, Garcia, Matthysse etc, all just solid without being anything special. In fact, most of these guys are probably a little overrated simply because they're in the same division as Floyd and Manny and get lots of attention because of it. As of right now, the special fighters in the sport seem to be elsewhere.

People on here are hilarious. One win and suddenly a fighter is being compared to ATG, a true legendary fighter up there with the very best. Not to mention Thurman was in with a fighter has no really good wins at WW. A fighter who proved he was nowhere near top level at WW when Floyd made him look a club fighter and went life and death with a Japanese fighter who is barely top 50 in the division. This is no disrespect to Guerrero, tough guy and i think he should really campaign at 140. Thurman was a middleweight in the ring last night. Thurman could go on to have a great career. He has a lot of talent but really putting him up against Duran in a fantasy match right now? Too much hype me thinks. He still has a lot of prove and yet to fight a top level fighter who matches him for size. Don't you see the hook? All bright and shiny? Ain't even hardly any bait on it, mang. This is an anti-One Time thread. A poorly concealed troll attempt, likely by somebody who is afraid for her favorite fighter.

Duran by decapitation

Is this a serious question?

Duran would outclass him for six rounds before getting disqualified for leaving the ring to take a poo break. What a weird thread.

Fight would be over as soon as Duran lands on run time!

Duran would kill him on the inside. Keith has no inside game and Roberto was masterful and lethal on the inside. Not to mention Duran could out box him too if he wanted.

Duran would just be too nasty for Thurman.And like someone said above,Duran would kill Thurman when he comes lunging in like he likes to do.And smile/sneer at him the whole time while doing it.

Thurman is good, but not great. And the way he lunges in, he is very open to counters. Duran takes his head off.

Thurman's more like Hagler than Leonard, Laing or Hearns At that weight Duran all day

Duran by brutal murder
