Roberto Duran VS Carlos Ortiz

[Optimistic]

Interested in how you guys think this one would go?

You think they'd have a trilogy?

three fights with duran losing the first by close decision then with roberto coming back to ko carlos twice.

Sounds like Duran-DeJesus, except that the decision win wasn't really close.

yes but I think that durans camp makes sure he is in great shape as Ortiz was a great lightweight/jr welter who beat Laguna twice I believe. His carreer acomplishments put him a slight level above esteban.

This fight nearly happened, apparently Carlos Eleta didnt fancy it.....

Ortiz was excellent but my money would have been on Duran

The only fight would've been so convincing in Duran's favor that a single rematch, let alone a trilogy would've been unwarranted. I see Ortiz being dispatched they way of Pipino Cuevas.
