    No, Duran is a smaller man.

    Duran started at bantamweight, Floyd started 3 divisions bigger at junior lightweight.

    Floyd is taller with a much longer reach than Duran.

    Floyd looked drained at the weigh-in yesterday, he's having trouble making 147 now.

    Floyd grew into a big welterweight, he couldn't even make the catch-weight when he fought the much smaller JM Marquez. Floyd refused to fight Ricky Hatton at 140 or at a catchweight between 140 and 147.
    Duran was 16 when started at bantamweight. Mayweather at 16 was in the flyweight division in the amateur

    And Mayweather isn't a big welterweight

          STILL GOING?

          OMG!

          I'm far from a Floyd fan but hey, he has dominated one of the most stellar resumes of any boxer.

          Conversely, Duran struggled/lost to ALL of the fab 4 (even quit once), none of which were lb for lb as good as Floyd ever.

          And H2H Duran stands no chance whatsoever!

          Am I missing something?

          Duran's ATG status is not worth one drop of piss in the desert next to Mayweathers.

          Indisputable FACT!

          Get over it!

              you don't "represent society" society saw duran say no mas, society has seen floyd unify the 147 and 154 titles at 37 years of age..duran couldn't come close to that in his career..
