    And Leonard made Duran quit and he says Floyd is an ATG that could be great in any era .

    Margo would not have layed a loaded glove on Floyd , it would be the case of a mongoose vs a sloth .

    Too much hate in this forum and not enough logic .

      Oh! You mean Floyd, who sabotaged his chance to earn $100mil+, if he would have simply gone under the original terms of 50-50 with Pac, but instead decided to price his own self out of the fight?



      No, I mean Aaron Pryor. He turned down Ray Leonard, which most of the ******s that continue to perpetuate the myth that Leonard somehow avoided him either forget or don't know (the latter being most likely.)

Right? why not say there are starving kids in cincinatti where he is from? or starving kids in the US?
        Because anyone with one ounce of sense, knows how many meals that money could buy in the US and ESPECIALLY overseas. And he throws it down the toilet. Broner can rest assure that no one will ever wrongfully accuse him of having any sense.

          You've officially lost your F'ing mind. FIrst off, Duran wouldve already been giving up a 6 INCH REACH ADVANTAGE! Duran was the best BRAWLER of his era. Doesn't mean **** against a guy who makes tactical adjustments so well. Do I like Duran? Absolutely, but make no mistake, he would've been mincemeat against Mayweather. Bad matchup stylistically, not to mention I can't take a guy seriously who QUITS! He QUIT! One more for good measure.....HE QUIT! He couldnt adjust.....and he QUIT!

            Slow, flatfooted, loaded gloves Margarito wouldve beat Mayweather. This forum I swear to god...

            Margacheato would've gotten picked upart 12 rounds to zero. Not even close. If you are looking for a troll, here you go

                alittle harsh on duran,,, he is just a brawler?????

                The dude had james toney type skills,,,, could fight inside or out, roll with punches and brutal ko counters,,,

                Once again, people only talk about Duran after his prime,,, nobody ever brings up the lightweight duran when he was beating everyone down and was 70-1... People just talk about the 80's fights of duran.....

                It would be like saying roy jones is a bum,,, he got beat in all his big fights, tarver, johnson, calzaghe,,
                Or holyfield wasnt that good,, dude lost to lewis,ruiz, toney, byrd, larry donald

                please take into consideration when a guys prime was
