      Duran would have beaten and mauled little Floyd

      Duran-Leonard-Pryor-Hearns-Whitaker-even Benitez would have beaten little mini Floyd. Floyd came along when the great eras of boxing were over and floyd the felon faced weak opposition and made a great name beating weak opponents. Arguello would have stopped floyd. maybe even Boom Boom.

        I've seen them both live, especially Duran many times & no doubt after 5/6 Duran would dominate, 'specially in the days of 15 rounds...if you never saw Duran really up close u never c all the little things things he did espwcially @ LW/WW....

          I'm sure everyone thought they could beat Mayweather before they actually lost to him.

            Duran was arguably the greatest lightweightof all-time who beat SRL in his prime. Any boxing historian would agree that Duran would probably win that one

              Eventually counter uppercuts would take its toll on anyone going to his body, so hard to say if Duran would continue aiming for it. Not to mention Floyd's jab stopping his tracks coming in for it.

                Duran was 10 times the better fighter of Castillo and Madaina these two pressure fighter were robbed of their wins The fight wouldn't be close Duran would be all over him and Floyds power would do nothing to stop Duran. Roger would have to enter the ring to save little Floyd.

                  Counter upper cuts only work if your standing there in the middle with steps to the left or right you avoid getting countered and I'm sure Duran is aware of this. Floyd upper cuts didn't work on Castillo or Madaina the two who beat Floyd up

                    What's wrong with that....it's the normal for me ...can't beat a bit Pablo lined up and few coronas ....Floyd just beats women up ...Duran would get high and clear a bar room out ....Duran was a wild animal

                      If he quit because he couldn't hit a "dancing" Sugar Ray then he can forget about every beating Floyd!
