    Roberto Duran VS Julio Cesar Chavez

    Roberto Duran won 103 (KO 70) lost 16 (KO 4) drawn 0 = 119
    Julio Cesar Chavez won 107 (KO 86) lost 6 (KO 4) drawn 2 = 115

    Their records speak for themselves.

    2 All Time Greats.

    This would be the ultimate match up.Who do you favour to win?at lightweight 135.

    I have absolutely no clue.

    Roberto Duran wins IMO.

    At his best he was just better all round. Much faster.

    But it would be close. Chavez was more consistant throughout his career, but Duran is a p4p ATG.

      There was a poll on this like a day ago and most people picked Duran.

      I would pick Duran too.

        It'd be a great fight. I see Duran by a decision.

              Why exactly? Duran was at least as good if not better than Chavez at everything Chavez was good at, and was more versatile.

              I see Chavez lasting the distance, which says enough about him, but he wouldn't outfight, outbox, or outsmart Duran.

                  I didn't see a way in hell how JC could've had that draw against Pernell Whitaker either. But he did.

                  Not that JC could actually BEAT Duran but with these judges you never know.

                    Both Duran's beat Chavez.

                    The raw monster that pressured you and battered you into submission or the guy that counters you and slips all of your shots.

                    Both duran's beat chavez.
