    Is Roberto Duran P4P best ever?

    Won the lightweight title in 1972, and ruled the lightweight division for almost seven years, then moved up 2 weight classes and taught Ray Leonard a vicious lesson, then proceded to move up 154 and destroy Davey Moore, finally in 1989 at the age of like 38 moved up to middleweight and took the wbc title from Iran Barkley, Duran was truly a natural born fighter and the argument can be made he is the p4p best, what do you guys think.

      I dont think Buchanan ever beats Duran. And would Buchana want the rematch after that vicious nut show he got hit with haha im sure Buchana was just fine with saying he fought Duran once.

          He should at least be in the top 10 P4P of all time, to me he should be in the top 5 but that's because I'm a huge Duran fan. He is arguably the best Lightweight champion of all time IMO.

              it's ray robinson

              then maybe,i think he was a great offensive fighter,and a great defensive fighter.most legends are one or the other.

                the best P4P ever? i say he's a top candidate, up there with armstrong and sugar man, although id match them equally at the number 1 rating. all of them are superb fighters and it's hard for me for selfish reasons to rank one above the other. best lighteweight? no question about it, the best 135 pounder there ever was. hell of a welterweight, and his victories in his late 30s speak for themselves. im a huge duran fight and he's as real as it gets.
