Why do Duran fans hate Mayweather jr so much

[shadeyfizzle]

130, 135, 140,147, 154 yep that's five




floyd was at welterweight for 1.5 years...how do you get 3

How many real welterweight fighters did Mayweather fight at 147?? 1. How many of the rest of the fighters he fought at welter were also around during his 140 days?? All of them. How many fights did he have 154?? 1. You even admitted that Delahoya is a natural welterweight.

So in reality he went through 130, 135, 140 and had only 2 real welterweight fights. 3 and a half weightclasses

you do realize of duran;s 100 fights only 22 were for championships floyd in 39 fiughts has had 18..you do the math

You do realize those championship fights were 15rounders not 12.

he hung around long enough to do what duran couldn't

You realize Duran had 31 wins in 5 different weight classes before his 1st loss. A loss by decision when scoring was much different from the way it is today. Not bad for a guy with no amateur experience and wasnt taught by daddy since age 5

[pistol whip]

duran ducked pryor and fought an old palomino instead, and he ducked michael nunn and fought iran barkely instead...any one can mke these arguments. what matters is the fights. floyd fought who he nedded to fight.

no one expected duran to clean out 160 his fourth weight class so why are people clamining floyd ducked fighters in his fourth weight class. it doesn't make sense

Everybody in that era ducked Pryor so what the *** are you talking about and the people that Floyd ducked were at 147 where he was the undisputed champ so again what in the *** are you talking about.


Also when did floyd ever fight at 160????????????????????? Jesus WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!

ok I see am dealing with a ****** so I am gonna go easy on you

are you saying zab judah the former undisputed 147 champion, and ricky hatton the former WBA 147 champion are not real welterweights, what does that make floyd coming from 130. is 147 floyds first weight class

are you saying hoya who had fought at 154 or above since 2001 wasn't the wbc 154 champion

So in reality he went through 130, 135, 140 and had only 2 real welterweight fights. 3 and a half weightclasses

stop drinking

You do realize those championship fights were 15rounders not 12.

and what's your point, I see your a slow one

You realize Duran had 31 wins in 5 different weight classes before his 1st loss. A loss by decision when scoring was much different from the way it is today. Not bad for a guy with no amateur experience and wasnt taught by daddy since age 5

yeah sure he did, did he win any titles in those five weight classes

you can't duck someone when you're retired ******

Also when did floyd ever fight at 160????????????????????? Jesus WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!

160 was duran's fourth weight class, 154 was floyd's 5th,, WTF are you talking about

[pistol whip]

you can't duck someone when you're retired ******

:

No ****** when Pryor was actually fighting every fighter with a name ran from him. Sugar Ray, Hearns, Duran, and any welterweight in Pryor's era wanted nothing to do with him so how does this in anyway discredit anything Duran did?

discredit duran, please duran went 1-5 against the best of his era if had faced pryor it would have been 1-6.

Actually, that's not really true though I see what you're getting at. Brandish is even more off and just doesn't have a clue about anything so I wouldn't even bother. Pryor didn't even win a JWW title until 1980, at which point Duran and Leonard were having their own massive superfight.

Pryor never even made a name for himself until about two years later when he finally fought Arguello. By that stage I think Leonard had retired and Duran was already in the 154 division. No one ran from Pryor, be that Hearns, Leonard, Duran or Mike Tyson because he was a nobody down at 140 while these guys were fighting the biggest names in boxing way above that weight.

Pryor has nothing to do with anything really. People,like to think that Leonard ducked him but that's just not true, and Duran most certainly did not simply based on Pryor not being anybody until way, way after Duran had already gone past WW and on to names that are ten times what Pryor would ever be. More of Brandish's bollocks.

brandish to be honest you started this unneccassy debate

[pistol whip]

discredit duran, please duran went 1-5 against the best of his era if had faced pryor it would have been 1-6.

And being the greatest Lightweight of all time means nothing? Say what you want but the opinion of the greatest boxing writers in the world holds a hundred times more water than anything you have to say.


Are you gonna start discrediting Willie Pep next since he is considered the best featherweight of all time which happens to be Floyds most dominant weight class?

no debate is unnecessary its a boxing forum. if you think it is unnecessary then don't post in the thread.
