Round 4 Duran catches him with something that either takes him out or changes the momentum of the fight, and Duran finishes him in the next few rounds.

    Khan as all the physical talent to beat Duran at WW, but I just don't trust his ring IQ and his chin to hold up.
    Lol "a bunch" of the early rounds. Only 2 rounds passed before Garcia knocked Khan down for the first time. Change a bunch to a couple and I agree.

          I voted Duran by KO. I don't think Khan belongs in fantasy fights with the all time great welterweights until he proves himself with the best of today's welterweights. Beating Collazo, Algieri and Alexander doesn't prove much. Let Khan beat a Thurman or a Brook or a Porter first and then match him with the greats of the past. Just my opinion and of course you can make any poll you want. I enjoy voting that Khan gets knocked out even in a fantasy fight.

            Khan could take IV's during the fight and not have a prayer.

                Isn't Duran just a flat footed carbon copy of baldomir? Let's ask murkaman his thoughts.

                    The only choices should be which round does Duran KO Khan.
                    Khan might win a round or so, but Duran has a legendary beard and was champ at 154-160 past his prime. Duran was the only fighter to go 15 with Hagler when he was champ, Khan would be lucky to last a round with Hagler.

                    No reason to Khan vs any ATG, he would lose. Khan is okay, but any puncher with a chin takes him out (ATG fighters).
                    If Duran could beat Leonard at 147, he could beat Khan, Leonard has a great chin, Khan wouldn't have survived some of the bombs Ray took.

                      Roberto Duran by vicious KO. The KO Would cause and earthquake like How Marshawn Lynch's run vs the Saints caused an Earthquake.

                      KO at the opening Bell of round 2.

                      But Amir would actually do well in round 1, and he wouldn't get knocked down in rd 1. But Duran wins the round because he lands more punches in the round.
                      Brush be having fantasies of Khan getting that glass chin of his shattered by big punchers. You're mean!
