    Switch Mikey with the Duran that fought Sugar Ray at 147.

    Would Duran had beaten this version of Spence. Sure Leonard is much more skilled than Spence but Spence is physically stronger and more powerful. P4P I favor Duran but I think at 147 Spence stops him. Spence is just too big and strong and his motor is just as if not better than Durans. Thoughts?

    Duran went 15 rounds with a prime Hagler. He could handle Spence.

      I dont think theres any reason to think Spence hit harder than Leonard. Rays power has always been underated, but ive never seen Spence throw a punch that was anything like the shot Ray nearly killed Dave Boy Green with, and really the only good fighter Spence has fought is Brook. Spence isnt too big and strong for Duran, this guy stopped Moore and beat Barkley. Spence is good but hes nowhere near these guys as yet.

          The Duran that beat Sugar Ray Leonard would beat Spence.

          The No Mas Duran who quit? Maybe not.

            Forget all that BS, All that matters we know is that Mikey will beat them all.

              You also have to take in consideration styles. Duran is tailor made for Spence. Like Spence is tailor made for Duran. But I feel this is one of those situations where size and strength wins the day.

                  Are you aware Duran beat Iran Barkley who’s much stronger than Spence. Spence would recieve a boxing lesson from Duran

                    Cant see it man. Durans skills were sublime,and Spence doesn't compare with Hagler. Ray Leonard beats everyone from Welter to Super middle for me. We'll see how Spence does with Mikey, its a no win situation for him in my mind.
