      Many of the younger people here probably don't remember his Lightweight reign of terror, just the Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, Barkley fights. He was slowing down a little by the time he fought Leonard. There's not even a question about this, he belongs there.

          No one said that Duran was better than SLR, Hearns or Benitez.

                Duran would destroy him at 135. No constest at all.

                  Pound for Pound. 135 he was unmatched. He moved up to 147 to take on these guys. You can't ignore his vast exploits from lightwieght on up.

                    duran was smaller than all of them

                    and he was better than all of them by the pound, that's why we have p4p

                      You're remarks are nonsense, can't even believe you would think this?
