Prime 4 Prime Match: Manny Pacquiao vs Roberto Duran

[jrosales13]

I don't think duran's chin can hold on to pacquiao's power if hearns could ko him in round 2 i think pacquiao could do it in 11 and 12.

Well that was a prime passed Duran though. And, that fight was at 154. And, Hearns was a killer puncher.

[jrosales13]

Very very good fight. both generally don't lose in slug fests.

might edge it to Duran, but Pac just destroyed a very good WW who is very strong.

Do you think a prime Duran could of done the same thing to Cotto?

I'd take Duran.

The tendency is to classify Duran as an all out brawler, but he had good boxing skills when needed and his defense is underrated. He was very good at picking off shots and slipping and countering.

Duran in his prime was an ATG, like top ten ATG, so I'd have to give the edge to him.

[iHateThePacMan]

Any bulky brawler without speed will get man handled by pacquiao- especially at the weight he is comfortable

[Lokotron]

Duran would tear him up I can recall duran fighting at middleweight not catchweights of 145.
