    Good match up, hard one to predict. I'll take Duran by close decision.

        Duran.

        Probably on points.

          Floyd is 35 years old. Duran was near prime. KInda skewed. I'll vote floyd by decision but duran by UD is just as likely.

            Duran would KO Floyd. FLoyd is going against one of the best inside games in the history of boxing, power in both hands, a great chin, and great ring IQ. Duran breaks him down, probably tko's floyd on the ropes.

              Another thing to take into account is that Duran was deceptively fast. I'd pay to see this fight - it'd be one of the great ones.

                Floyd is past his prime-still good, Duran was prime. Probably Duran by a close SD. Prime for Prime, it'd be different I feel. Floyd would have his hands full no doubt. He definitely shouldn't ever trade with Duran, and I doubt he would have.

                  Duran had Floyd types stamina & knew how to pressure. The minute Floyd touched the ropes, the fight looks like Cotto-Floyd round 8 up until about the 9th round where Floyd quits or leaves parallel.

                    Duran would have done what Cotto did X 179
