Would Duran had the balls to face Golovkin?

[New England]

It didn't matter whether he was out of shape or not, he was willing to fight anyone. I think his willingness to fight the best and even go out of his comfort zone to do so was Ali-like. Very few would put themselves in that kind of size disadvantage. Lets remember Duran was at his best at 135.

at his best, and perhaps the best ever at the weight.

duran had four balls, his and bucanon's. I there is anyone with balls its duran lightweight king for years moves up and fights with some of the best ever even though he is undersized and overwieght.

So what would you want a fat man to do? Retire?

[gatorDelux]

of course he would have. He fought Hagler who was a beast....Hearns was just a terrible matchup for Duran cause of his length. GGG isn't that tall.

or fast or skilled

He already went the distance with the greatest MW ever " Hagler "

Alright you guys are really starting to piss me off lol. Gennady Golovkin has not faced a single threat in his professional career! Why do you idiots ignore this. If you're looking for a guy with a more padded record than Canelo Alvarez, you found him in GGG. As soon as he steps his level of competition up, it doesn't even have to be consistent, just take 1 damn fight against an opponent that will fight back and I promise we can have these discussions then. Just please, fight one guy! Please!

wait.. lets not forget it was FIFTEEN rounds with hagler lol


i think golovkin would duck this fight

[J The UnBiased]

That being said, I don't have Duran in my Top 10 as many of you do lol

[boliodogs]

Yes, I think Duran would fight him and he would get KOed in my opinion. Duran fought Hearns, Hagler, Leonard, and Barkley.Duran would fight just about anybody.

[Suckmedry]

Duran would fight anyone, and fought everyone in his time. He would step up to GGG like he did to the rest.
