    if not quitting is the measure of a legend, then Cherrypicker is way behind Duran... Cherrypicker quits before he even gets in the ring

      Why are people comparing Floyd with Duran? Two totally different kind of fighters, Duran for me was 10 times the fighter Floyd is.

        That's all the the man is saying,plus he's entitled to his own opinion just like everybody else.It's funny how floyd gets a pass for his rants but when a legend like Duran speaks out it's ludicrous he's immediately labeled a hater that doesn't know ****.He's probably right too,whats Floyd/Pac who never even fought or ever will to Duran,leonard,hearns,Pryor.I bet his crazy fans believe he'd beat all 4 too smh.

          Floyd got 2
          Doesn't mean a thing , Leonard had them , Hopkins had them , Manny has had how many , its all irrelevant to what the thread is about , would have would not have don't mean anything as nothing is engraved in stone the guy that beat Duran said Floyd is an ATG in any era , so who holds more weight Leonard or Duran .

          Durans statement cannot be backed up because if you look at his prime career over 90% of his opponents are bums , that's why they have so many fights , your not fighting top competition over a 100 fights , Floyd beats all of Durans LW opponents , Floyd could possibly beat all of Durans opponents we just don't know ,,,,,,,,,

          So really its all a mute point and depends on who you hate and who you don't .

            Is it ludicrous when legend Leonard says the opposite to Duran ?

              Then how do you explain lesser fighters than Floyd beating Duran , something seems a bit like romancing the stone , humans have away of doing that with old legends they get bigger over time , some still think Jack Johnson is historys best HW , personally I think the modern champs destroy him .

                    You cant blame Duran for saying that. One look at floyd's resume and you see two glaring facts:

                    1. His best win is Diego Corrales. Somebody who isnt even a legit hall of famer.

                    2. He has yet to face a legit hall of famer IN THEIR PRIME.

                    Its ok floyd fans...





                    he still undefeated doe....

                      It is ok, lmao. Those guys back then didn't know that they were fighting h.o.f's because we didn't know how Sugar, Duran or Hagler would pan out when they fought so your fool ass outlook is trashed. You're talking AFTER the fact. Floyd has fought tough fighters, they just weren't as good as the big 4. So what, this is his era. Nobody that he is accused of ducking could beat him. It's all accusations. Nobody screamed Mike McCallums name back then either when the big 4 were around. Didn't Mike deserve some love? Oh, no money in a fight with Mike right. Hypocrites.
