For me it was the Barkley fight. Duran's age, his backstory up to that point and a career resurrected. The opponent a big younger hard punching middleweight. His own family were frightened for him and Barkley dwarfed him in the ring. Great commentary by Gil Clancey.

I was at the Barkley fight in Atlantic City. That was a underrated fight. The Blade was a tough customer, but Roberto was so crafty and could get you out of your fight plan in about 6 minutes.
A little side note , I Left The fight after it ended. I went and played Black Jack for about hour or so and like 4-5 vodka’s later walked out to the parking garage and there was like 6 inches of snow outside and I got 2 hour plus drive ahead of me at 2:00 AM. That ******

--- Sugar Ray I, he mullered him and had fun doing it.
Yeah, Barkley and Hagler. Didnt win Hagler, but knocked the fear of God into him!

My favorite fight that he won was the fight with Barkley. Just given the size difference I think it was an amazing performance.

Ik everybody been saying it but Leonard 1 that was straight classic. The build up was nice and the when final bell rang Duran was showing his to Leonard and Benitez i loved it. You can tell in the fight both of these dudes really wanted to hurt and humilate the other it was straight entertainment.
DeJesus 2 was also a good 1 Duran really wanted reveng and got it lol.Last edited by Blue54; 12-26-2018, 11:51 PM.
