    Come on, with a little effort I have faith that you can differentiate between a fighter Duran fought who had a losing record and Conner Mcgregor who Floyd Is fighting.

    I am counting on you to be smart enough to pull this off.

      Power and money.

      Moreso power imho.

      Alot of boxers past and current wish they werent at the mercy of their manager and promoter.

      Floyd found a way to free himself and still maximise his earnings.

        Do you see any key words In the above statement? Is Floyd Guaranteed $400 million?
        Everyone also said he would never make 100 million fighting Manny, most laughed at the idea, how much was that again?

              So Duran at 66 years of age who Is worth millions of dollars and who Is ranked higher than Floyd, and will forever be, Is jealous because he couldn't break away from his manager and promoter?

                    You asked for possibilities and I gave them to you.

                    I dont know how much Duran is worth and his age is irrelevant.

                    Yes at 66 he could be saying to himself that he wishes he had the opportunity to make money then he did, that he wishes his promoter didnt keep such a large sum of his purse, that he wishes he could have fought when he wanted to and not when told to, that he wishes he could have fought who he wanted to (Ray) instead of having to wait ten years for it...

                    Not just Floyd by the way. Im sure guys were jealous of the power Leonard had. Same for Hoya. Now its Floyd.

                    You are trying to pretend that Duran had it all. He didnt.

In a man to man confrontation without rules, floyd would more than likely get manhandled and finished...he's the one who needs rules to protect him out of the 2. I will say tho, that floyd would probably have a better shot at beating mcgregor under mma rules than mcgregor has at beating floyd under boxing rules...anyone can get clipped with a punch and hurt closing the distance with those small gloves.
                      You do realize that Floyd hits way harder than McGregor right?

                      You do realize that McGregor is a sub-par athlete right?
