How great is Duran to be the only boxer ever to win fights in 5 different decades?

I don't think you should be allowed to fight at 50

The man is a legend.

Not trying to downplay it but when that is read it kinda makes it sound like he fought for 5 decades. 50 years. Not true. He had his pro-debut in 1968 and last fight on 2001 so thats 33 years.

No it doesn't. It makes it sound like he fought in 5 different decades.

This is something I did not know and it blew my mind when I read it!

Duran is the only man in boxing history to win fights in 5 separate decades. He registered wins in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and the 2000s.

Wow!

Now that's just frickin amazing!

How great is he?

I give him #7

It took a bad car accident to stop his career.

They don't make them like that anymore!

Duran is in my top 10 favorites of all time.

I'm making a Duran sig

[intoccabile]

Arguably top 10 ATG, arguably the GOAT at LW. Beast, awesome fighter, underrated IQ and counter punching ability.

Arguably top 10.. What makes top 10 atg different from top 10 p4p? Imo he's an easy top 5 p4p and arguable 3.

For a starter, they need to go back to 15 rounders.

Does anyone see a Floyd/Pac going the distance against Hagler?
