    I've always said Duran beats Floyd at 135, still stand by that.

      Don't think he'd batter him senseless but I think Mayweather would struggle with Duran and lose.

      That's at any weight IMO. Except 154.

        But honestly at 135 in their prime, Mayweather frustrates him, most likely make him quit like Leonard did in their 2nd fight.
        But that wasn't Duran in his prime on the 2nd fight. Gain too much weight on his off time, while the rematch was made fast because of it.


        You're dreaming, Duran has on of the best inside games in history, power in both hands, great chin, and boxing IQ. NO way Mayweather makes it to the final bell, probably tko's Floyd on the ropes.

            Fight 1 : Duran wins a close but clear UD.

            Rematch: Floyd wins a close but clear UD.

            Think about it? Counterpunchers do better in rematches.

                I def agree that Duran beats Floyd at 135. I think Floyd does better in a rematch though. He would pot shot one shot at a time, or counter one shot at a time, and then move his entire body out of harms way.

                Personally Floyd vs Duran and Sweet Pea are two fantasty matchups i would most like to see, with the exception of Tyson vs any of Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Liston, Louis.
