Name one fantasy fight that Floyd has won in this site? Floyd loses every poll. You can ask Mayweather vs Calderon, who wins at 147? Calderon would most likely get 100 more votes than Mayweather. That's the Boxingscene I visit though, I don't know which one you're on but in this one it's the opposite of what you said, Floyd can barely win any fantasy fight on NSB.Comment

The silence is deafening.................I guess thats a pwn then.Whole article here,like I said burner,you dont know your history,son,so you have no business chatting **** about something you know f.uck all about.
Leonard felt those hands in their first meeting, in Montreal in June 1980. Duran had been lightweight champion from 1972 through '78, finally moving up to engage America's sweetheart for his welterweight title. It was a brutal bout, Leonard drawn into a street fight he never wanted. But if Leonard wasn't smart, losing for the first time in his career, he became a genius in arranging the rematch. Duran says he gained 50 pounds that first month out of the ring and that the Leonard camp rushed him into a return bout five months later. " Leonard, he was back in the gym immediately," Duran says. "I was completely different from him. While he was training, I was dancing in the discotheques. They knew it, too."
Duran, as usual, was in no position to negotiate the date or even the money. He needed the dough; there were tax problems. He had just seven weeks of training, some of it in a rubber corset, the last days living on diuretics. He still says it was cramps, not that embarrassing left jab Leonard delivered in the seventh round after pretending to wind up for a bolo punch, that dictated the result. "Frustrated? No, that's how Leonard fights," he says, dismissing the armchair psychologists who claim he quit in protest over Leonard's insistence of style over substance. "My stomach was paralyzed." He even pulls up his shirt to show the location of his pain. Although he seems to be describing appendicitis, he believes it was the hot coffee he drank right before the fight, coming after he had purged (and then, following the weigh-in, gorged), that produced his distress.Comment

Burner,this happened in 1980. Just about every single fact and detail about this situation is well documented. He drove everybody nuts after the first Leonard fight,his trainers,handlers,promoters and just about everyone connected with him. Just go and do some reading FFS will you.Comment

So stomach cramps huh guys? Even if it was stomach cramps, which it wasn't, do you guys really condone a fighter quitting in a fight, let alone a fight as big as Leonard-Duran II, because of stomach cramps? I mean common, stomach cramps? Really?Comment
