Does Duran Outdo Floyd At Beating manny

[The plunger man]

O

And btw, I'm not knocking the strategy of letting Duran blow up and then kill him with weight drain. Duran should have been more disciplined. It was a sharp move on Leonard's part, but it was part of his game. On the documentary Hands of Stone, Leonard admits it plain as day. Duran also assumed he'd get a third fight either way. Of course, that didn't happen.

Leonard never let Duran blow up wtf you talking about...Duran lost control of himself and his weight ..was Leonard shoving the steaks and champagne down Durans throat in Panama..Duran did it himself...That's lack of disclipline on Durans part.....Leonard exercised his rematch clause which he had every right to do....it was Durans management that accepted the November date....Duran had plenty of time to get ready for the fight as it was signed late August....Carlos eleta and Ray arcel said Duran was in great shape for the fight and it's a false story that stems because Duran quit and needed an excuse because the absolute shame with what Duran did.....no promoter would go near Duran after New Orleans ...

No, it wasn't classy, but Leonard's BS was annoying and made the fight a circus. The more you keep saying "that's a fact", the more desperate you sound. We're not going to agree on this. I see it my way and you see it yours.

Duran is brilliant...incredible fighter...but so was Leonard and for me he is the most gifted fighter of the last 40 years... If Duran and Leonard went toe to toe then that was Durans game and he would win 8 out of 10 and if they boxed Leonard would win 10 out of 10 ...Leonard was simply a better boxer and it's common knowledge the boxer will always beat the brawler 9 times out of 10..... No we won't agree......all I can say is Leonard came away as the overall winner

Except when Duran busted him wide open in the eleventh round in the third fight with the only meaningful punch in that drudgery.

[Bigg Rigg]

They fight at 147.

No Mas Duran vs manny that faced Floyd

Who cares?? Morales and Marquez beat Manny better than Floyd.

[The plunger man]

You already are setting it up in Manny's favor doe.


The Duran that fought Leanord on the rematch still has a great chance at stopping Pacquiao.

Pacquiao is taylor made for Duran, jumping in and out with his hands down? please. It could only take a couple of shots to take him out.

I dont see Duran losing to Pacquiao's style, wish is far different than leonards.

Even I don't think Duran could beat Leonard when Leonard boxed...I could never see manny pacquaio being able to beat Roberto Duran ....Duran would have to much of everything for manny pacquaio ...Duran was ferocious and was the perfect inside fighter.....as welterweight I don't think pacquaio could have hurt him...light welterweight maybe he could have if he had landed the same shot as he did on Hatton ....but Duran is on a whole new level compared to Hatton ....I think Duran stops pacquaio with in 9 rounds in my opinion

Still won 11 rounds lol......let's call it a truce and just accept Leonard was the better all round boxer lololol ...both true legends of boxing and I miss them

I shutter to think what they would do today's current crop.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

Thomas Hearns beats anyone at 12 rounds in the Welterweight division all-time.

[GrandpaBernard]

Who cares?? Morales and Marquez beat Manny better than Floyd.

Because I'm comparing the upper echelon of ATG's, which Morales and Marquez aren't apart of

Lol "upper echelon of ATG's" well that's cool but they both still beat Pac before and better than Floyd. Just saying.....
