    Floyd who wont even fight Martinez or GGG, but he is a toss up vs hagler.lmao

    Duran knows what most hardcore fans older then 35 know.
    Floyd hasnt faught one guy near Durans level number 1,or on old oscars level for that matter since old part time oscar vs floyd..
    floyd would have a big speed advantage over hagler. I just think it would be a close fight with floyd possibly potshotting his way to a decision win. I dont think its that far fetched

      It's sad isn't it? F L O M O S still think the world is flat to.

      In any event, it's pretty fair to say that the average age demographic on this boxing site is about 15 thus you can't possibly think their boxing IQ is any higher than a can of stewed tomatoes.

        Real Talk =/= bashing
        I'm sure that's EXACTLY what you would be calling it, had the name Mayweather been replaced with Pacquiao in the article, right? "Real Talk"

          Duran is not only an ATG boxing legend but he is also a boxing fan. He like all boxing fans, is tired of Floyd being a coward.

            Duran think Pacman is a bad boy

              It's about as far-fetched as any prediction you could possibly make. Hagler EASILY beats Mayweather.

                It's normal for older fighters (especially all time greats, like Duran) to potshot new generation fighters and potential all time greats like Floyd.

                Anyone upset about this should change their tampon or go drink some motor oil or something.

                    A true ATG speaking the truth that's all it is. Oh btw he's not the only ATG that "bashes" gayweather.

                      Duran has also said that Pacquiao is trash and he'd beat him in his prime. This was after the 3rd fight with Marquez. Be was pissed after Marquez got robbed.

                      The video is floating around somewhere in here. I'm gonna look for it...
