    How many times did he defend the title @154 0

    160 0

    You get my drift. One victory over Ray Leonard and beating a bunch of nobodies @135 does not get you in my top 10-20.

    He didn't dominate outside of 135 hence he gets ranked lower against fighters who went up and dominated like Floyd, Roy, Bhop, pernell, sugar Ray Robinson Henry Armstrong etc .
    come back when floyd moves up and defeats a middleweight titliest

      Been there done that in 2006 when Floyd fought zab for the 147 IBF title, his fourth weight class!

      Duran beat Barkley in a very close fight in his fourth weight class 160!

      Floyd going to 160 would be like Duran winning a title at 168 it would be there sixth weight class,

      So your argument dies on the vine, all shriveled up and stuff

          The fact he is one of the fabulous four is amazing. The lightweight, rising to challenge ATG welterweights and possibly the greatest Middleweight in their primes, when he was well beyond his best is incredible.

            Undefeated through five weight classes beating the top guy in each weight for the past 17 years speaks for itself Duran didn't have that type if career or longevity.

            Duran beating Ray Leonard does not make him top 10-20 that's ridiculous not beTing any other ATG makes him30-40
            Wasn't Floyd/Oscar close? He didn't really beat oscar according to your logic with Duran/Leonard = Floyd not an ATG.

                He got lucky because he didn't win a rematch.

                    Again, Duran started his career at 118.

                      floyd started at 106 how far back you going? no matter how you slice it duran won titles in four weight classes didnt defend a title outside of 135 and hes top 10-20 yeah right someones snorting or smoking something.

                      how about if duran had beaten ray in a rematch, went on to defeat hagler and reign as 160 champ for 3-5 years then you could have an argument for a top ten ranking but it didnt happen he beat ray 147 lost in rematch, beat davey moore at 154 lost next fight by ko, beat barkely never defended title vacated it.in only his fourth weight class.
