    Do you guys really think he did those things on purpose? It kind of looks like a sheer coincidence.

      Roberto Duran
      Marvin Hagler

      Hearn's Last but not least. I'd still say Hearns is the most underated fighter in boxing.
      i would have to say that Duran is above those 3, yes. in terms of overall greatness, and accomplishments i would rank him at the top. I would rank robinson above him though.

      really, people underate thomas hearns? i didnt know that. to me tommy is great, he came up short in his best fights, but he's still great. Sometimes you dont have to really have the names on the paper that are great, just so you can be great for having beat them. Hearns is a good example of that.

      but of course Hagler and Leonard would be ranked above him.

            I was mad that Duran quit against Leonard. Still I was more pissed off that Leonard acted like a clown. The reason I rank Duran that high is because he is a 135-147 punder. Everyone else was bigger then him. No one ever counts the win Leonard got in the 2nd fight against Duran. Don't know why and yes Sadly, Hearns is underated.

                    Yep the second fight was pretty controversial. I still cant tell whether it was frustration, or Duran really had stomach cramps. i guess no one will ever know. Duran always says it was the stake dinner with orange juice.....leonard did what ali used to do, when he got really confident he dared his opponents to tag him. roberto looked pissed

                    btw have you read duran's "hands of stone" bio?
