I think its time to realise we may be witnessing something special:

The difference was Duran was entertaining.

I am still appalled that some people cannot differentiate entertainment from being a good fighter.

Strategy is important in boxing.
Defense is important in boxing.

Doesn't put bums on seats though does it when someone fights ultra negative?

[James78]

Im not a big Floyd fan. But Going off his record and his ability in the ring we may be seeing the greatest fighter of all time.

katsidis is in yo top 5? hahahaha

[QUOTE=Ultimateboxa;2743194]Yeh i have. Floyd has the best defence of all time. That can't be argued. If he takes down a few more big names and retires on top, he has to be their, well close to it.[/QUOTE

You say he has the best defense ever, msybe your forgetting about a guy named Pernell Whittaker. I wasn't of a fan of him either but he was much better defensively.

I don't know about all of that. Didn't Mayweather break an all-time record in his last fight and another (selling out in 30 minutes) with this one?

EXACTLY!!!!

Cue Dios and his Quotes.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Duran is and will always be the better fighter at any weight. In any mythical matchup, at any weight, Duran beats him down 7 times out of 10. That settles that.

I disagree. I think Duran beats Hatton 10 out of 10.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Weird, if I remember correctly, Duran didn't even have a monumental amount of accomplishment after he left 135. He was still great, but not the best at any of those divisions. He always lost his biggest fights after 135.

Regardless, accomplishments don't mean much in head-to-head fantasy matchups.

You are absolutely right.

Duran's best work was done below 147, with the SRL win as a notable exception.

Can PBF go to 160/168 and beat some bum or fringe contender? Sure he can. His sparring partners are 160/168. But what would it mean? Not a damn thing.

I'm embarrassed for Teka right now. He is nuzzling Duran's taint for work at 160/168.
