    What's the excuse for duran losing to benitez, i would love to hear it. He was only 31 mind you and many of his fights on his record were padded with bums.

      Benitez was a hall of fame, skilled, master technitian himself. Seriously, you are reaching here...

      That's like saying, "what's Ali's excuse for losing to Joe Frazier?" People lose you know...ESPECIALLY when they are 14 years into their careers, have fought 76 fights, and are 17 pounds north of their best weight class.

          well duran's pro career from 68-71 is similar to other fighters having an amatuer career during that time frame. He boxed at a young age cuz he didnt do much in the amatuer ranks.

            If Duran was so bad, explain how come Hagler, who you say was the Greatest Middleweight ever, couldn't put him away. If fact, Hagler only won by 1 point on two of the score cards Judge: Guy Jutras 144-142 | Judge: Yusaku Yoshida 146-145 | Judge: Ove Ovesen 144-143 ~.

            So if Duran at the age of 32, was that bad, what was Hagler?

              greb lost to many ****ty fighters, henry armstrong lost to many ****ty fighters, try again. Hagler went on to win anyways. Duran is not bad at all, i kinda like him actually. However, he isnt invincible like the way people say he is. Julio cesar chavez had a legit chance of owning him.

                nobody is saying he is bad.

                but he is over-rated, over-hyped. and no doubt, no arguing, he got LAID OUT !

                Julio Cesar Chavez was a much much better fighter.

                  You are not seriously citing the losses of a 40-something year old Duran as you reasoning here. Tell me you're not.
