    Speedkillz is probably the only one that doesn't have an agenda, and I've looked back at his post history. Its legit. The rest of you royd fan boys can gtfo.

    Junior gong, he's not a fan boy. I legit think its just his opinion, and not royd nut huggery.

        i asked did you see duran laing and duran pedroza 1? If so, do they factor in at all when discussing duran's skill set.

        I asked because your posts suggest you have actually watched the sport a long time.

          floyd is just better than duran at said attributes, and like I said, floyd is not a great a fighter as duran was overall, but pure skills, goes to floyd.

          can you understand that, or you just gonna cry and bumsniff that you arent getting the answers you want
          According to who? You and a bunch of other fanboys. Its very simple, Floyd does a few things better and duran does more things better. Its no coincidence that he is universally regarded as much the greater fighter.

            Indeed I did. The Laing fight was a strange one. Laing could on his day do amazing things,granted he was a bit mad and didnt have too many of these days, and I dont think duran took that fight or Laing seriously(much as the case in his preparation for Leonard 2). Pedroza? When did he fight anyone called Pedroza...I dont recall that.

              Actually, you're not going to debate with me because what I had to say already silenced you, put you in your place and left you with only ^^^ to respond with.

              What can I say? Its a gift!

              You're out of your league, boy boy.

              You just don't fit in.

                I'm happy to hear that! The last thing I would want to fit into is a pair of skinny jeans, a pink shirt and a TMT jacket...that would make me or anyone else look like a right ****, but still carry on sporting that look!

                  which plays into EXACTLY to what I said. so thanks for confirming. duran is great, floyd is more skillful. you dont have to get so upset about it. you are probly of the mindset that old time fighters are better than current fighters, no matter what, and thats fine with me, just so long as you understand my point, which by your post it seems you're getting there
