    Floyd's shoulder roll would frustrate Duran in the pocket.

    I know it's a universal thing to say that Duran would murder Floyd, and you would look bad like me if you go against that. But it's just my opinion that floyd beats Duran at aany weight.


    Now SRL vs Mayweather??? Now we're talking. And don't come with that "But Duran beat Leonard" .

    Styles make fights and I think Leonard has the perfect style to give Floyd an L.

      Put him in a phone booth with Duran and you will see how good floyd is fighting in the pocket, up close and personal.

      15? you guys think Floyd is a lazy ass bum I see. Try sparring 15 Minute rounds, forget about 15 rounds, how about 15minute rounds?

      If it's about stamina and having the skills to run when he has to run and not get caugh ton the ropes?

      Damn I understand Duran was unbeatable and all but it frustrates me cause we'll never get to see this fight happening so everyone can see how wrong you all are about Duran chasing Floyd and making him fight and somehow throw him off his gameplan...You can give Floyd any size gloves, any ring, any fighter oP4P and you will see a defensive genius with cat like reflexes win a "boring" decision under any circumstances.

      Edited somethings cause I wrote it too fast.
      I second that

          hahaha mayweather would win before the fight with an agreement that gives him a huge edge.

          nothing wrong with that ... just a good strategist... SRL did the same against duran

            Kev, you get hit enough times in that shoulder your gonna feel it...most guys look confused when Floyd shoulder rolls...Duran will be mixing up the body work if Floyd stands in front of him...Duran would be the most ruthless body puncher Floyd would ever see...

            Standing in the pocket would be suicide...

              As much as I love Floyd. Ill favor Duran. Floyd hasn't even fought Cotto, Mosley, or Margocheato.

                Such a well-rounded boxer choosing to fight a fighter. Mayweaher would NEVER do that, he would never try to fight a puncher.

                I hate seeing this fight, I have it in my PC but i hate it. A boxer so skilled like SRL, wanting to trade with Duran.

                  If me, a 155 pounder, can take 1000 shoulder shots from a beast 220 pound(My sparring partner) brolic as hell. I'm sure Floyd's huge ass shoulders can take shots from a LW-WW.

                    Thing is I don't know if Duran would give him a choice...Hatton made him fight, Castillo made him fight...Duran most definently would...and Duran is leaps and bounds better than either one of them...

                    If Floyd managed to win he wouldn't feel like a winner at the end of the night...

                      When did Hatton made him fight. Floyd was always in control. It was a one sided beat down. Amazing, how people use the Castillo fight. Wasn't Floyd injured when he fought him and CLEARLY won the rematch easily. How about Liang and Beneteiz, is Floyd not good as these guys
