    Duran Got Owned By All 3 Other Fab 4 Guys: Why's He Ranked High?

    Why do some people rank Duran as the best or 2nd best of the Fab 4 guys when all the other Fab Four guys owned him?

    He lost to Hagler.
    He got embarrassed against Leonard in infamous "No mas" coward fight.
    He got annihilated by Hearns in a career low embarrassing destruction.

    I understand he started at a lower weight class than the others, fought as low as 135 but in reality he started at 140 so I'll consider him a more natural 140lber.

    Hearns started 147 not that big of a difference.

    Leonard also started at 140 so they're even.

    Hagler was the only one that stayed at 160 the whole damn time.

              He started at 122 lbs. He reigned as lightweight champion for 7 years, before any of the other members of the Fab 4 held any titles or in Hearns and Leonard's case had even started their pro careers. By the 1980's, Duran was no longer the force he had been, yet he was competing against prime greats in their own weight classes and was competitive with Leonard and Hagler.

                Big deal Julio Cesar Chavez was like 100-0 after beating up street sweepers, cab drivers, man hole workers, pigeon roost cleaners, hotdog stand operators, etc.

                  cus he fought all of them but got destroyed by them all so that's why he's ranked high?

                  K let me go fight floyd and pacquiao and klitschko and get destroyed by all 3 just so I can get an ATG record and get into the boxing hall of fame.

                    ok that's a little more understandable.
