    they do not. I've never heard anyone seriously put Tyson in the top 5-8 heavyweights. I don't think you can make a case for Tyson being top 10 heavyweights, and Duran is easily among the best Lightweights. That's a whole different ballpark, saying people think Tyson was one of the greatest. Nobody believes that.

        Hagler & Leonard are better. Hearns & Duran are about even.

          dude, my uncles and their friends all agree Hagler > Leonard > Hearns > Duran

          but not one of them thinks Tyson was one of the best heavyweights ever. they are all CASUAL boxing fans at best. they know the names and that's it.

            Hagler is my favorite fighter, ever. I still don't believe that he's as great as Duran....lb4lb.

              Duran doesn't belong in there.

              Please be more consistent with your arguments.
              my arguments are pretty consistent, i will give you a synopsis:

              you say:

              duran is not top10 p4p because he is not xyz

              my answer:

              well find me someone (10 fighters in particular) who are xyz

              if you cannot find them, your claim that duran is not top 10p4p because he is not xyz, does not hold even from a logical point of view

                  What do you consider more impressive on Hagler's resume.....
                  The big names he beat towards the end of his career....or the lesser known, but bad-ass, middles from the 70's ?

                    dude, your uncles and their friends is a bit of a small sample, don't you think?

                    moreover duran's fights in his prime were not televised and hyped like the ones in the 80s, so it's quite obvious that if you have seen fight only the 4 of them you have that ranking (or leonard on top... GRRRR)

                      Both are impressive. He stopped the 4 people that he lost to or had a draw with. He stopped all four guys, with the exception of Leonard. Which I think Hagler won it by a point.

                      I still haven't seen another Hagler, the man was unreal, never been hurt in his life, 60+ wins. He kept his great chin forever, not like some others I can name.
