**1980 Roberto Duran vs 2010 Floyd Mayweather Jr. @ 147**

[ModernTalking]

This would be a good fight too...

We are talking the Duran that beat Leonard...


Weigh in...

Duran would have to do OSDT 24/7 in order for the fight to happen.

[Horus]

Horus I am not saying Duran would beat Horus at 147. But, no mas Horus? Floyd is not a big WW like Leonard was. Floyd never and I mean never ever ever ever at any weight especially at WW fought somebody Duran Horus. No diss to Floyd. But, never EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER in his career has he fought anybody remotely close to even a passed prime Duran. Never Horus honest **** Horus.

Saying that Floyd could win at 147. OK, I see that, I get it. Duran was not a beast at 147 or above. But, he was still damn good. Saying he will win is one thing but saying he will make him say no mas is a completely nuthuggery. Duran is not Oscar, Shane, Judah, Hatton, Baldo, Corrales, Gatti, Pac. He is none of them dude.

And, Floyd and Leonard are completely different night and day. Just cuz an ATG fighter did it in his first division doesn't mean an ATG fighter would do it in his 4th division. That is the key right there Horus.

Listen Jro,
IMO Duran did not quit against SRL because he was getting beat up by the bigger fighter. He quit because he was Frustraighted.

So if you agree that he quit because he was Frustraighted ...

the question then becomes, why was he Frustraighted?

The reasons he was Frustraighted was because he could not adjust,he could not get SRL to engaged into substained action, and he was getting hit cleanly for 8 rounds.

So if he can mentally quit before, why cant he do it again.
Especially against a fighter like Mayweather who imo, was better at making fighters lose focus and controling distance than SRL.

Mayweather UD...

floyd is the most overated fighter in history. who has he fought for his fans to think he can beat duran. castillo, corrales and a 38 year old mosley. what a joke.

[The Tase]

so mayweather who almost gets KTFO by a 39 year old 1 year & 5 months inactive shane mosley but he's gonna beat the 147 lb version of duran that beat an undefeated ray leonard?


if you said floyd or have to ask, or gave the same answer as flawless, you just picked ******ity over intelligence.

Styles makes fight. Not a list of the fighters you beat.

styles make fights but u have to consider who the guy has been fighting. duran beat a prime leanord, a skilled boxer and a higher all time great than floyd. so tell me the fighters floyd has fought that can even resemble duran.

Duran also got outboxed by Kirkland Laing, so how about you put styles into perspective and realise that is what everybody else is doing when we judge these match ups

Yes he beat Leonard. Yo cant mention that without mentioning that SRL fought Durans type of rough close, physical fight

In the second fight what happened? SRL's movement literally made Duran give up. He doesnt beat Floyd at 147. Its about styles man. Take the names out for a second because thats what people in this thread fail to do. Everybody get up in arms when people pick Floyd over these ATG's. The dude is a GREAT fighter its time NSB realizes that.

Fighter A: Floyds style

Fighter B: Durans style.

Like this is an easy pick.

lets not act like duran was some one punch ko artist at 147. he was hands of stone but duran would have to pull off a another srl-duran 1.
