    duran has no legacy outside of 135 no way one close win makes him top ten atg.
    A thing idiots like you will never understand is that it never is about who you lost to but who you won against. Look at Ali's and Robinson's records, they are littered with losses but they are also packed with great wins. Duran beating another ATG fighter in Leonard at his prime after moving up to the guy's weight is a great win close or not, Duran beating a true middleweight in Barkley(fresh after knocking out Hearns no less) after starting at lightweight is a great win, beating David Moore a dangerous upcoming prospect after everybody thought he was done and bloated at the weight is a good win, and considering all of this was after his prime when he was decimating the lightweight division, it makes all of this even more impressive.

          you have very los standards..that's what makes you an idiot. how many title defenses of the 160 title he won in a robbery against barkely did he make?

          duran lost to every fighter who was good in his era no way he makes it into my top ten let alone top 30.. and losses do matter.

                      here's the list of people he lost to

                      Esteban De Jesús
                      Sugar Ray Leonard
                      Wilfred Benítez
                      Kirkland Laing
                      Marvelous Marvin Hagler
                      hearns
                      Robbie Sims
                      and some more past his prime

                      so. He got some gift decisions like with Iran Barkerly.
                      Edit. Apparently the one with moore was a robbery as well
                      Your an idiot he beat Leonard as the smaller man , he knocked out Davey Moore so how is that a gift win ? He also put Barkley down so no robbery there anyone who can win titles from 135 to 160 is an ATG. He never ask fighters , for drug test, use bigger gloves , retired to avoid prime fighters
