People want to compare Floyd to Duran, but they say Hagler is not a fair fight for Floyd because he is a middleweight. It makes zero sense. Duran fought Hagler and took a decision loss in a good fight.
Floyd level with the 4 kings says Leonard

Styles, punching power and Floyds frail hands is more a compounding handicap as the weight goes up, Floyd could beat Duran at 130-147, he is in those fights, now Duran being physically more robust makes MW more doable for his type and style than it does Floyd.
You a really just applying a triangle theory , and they dont work in boxing because of so many individual differences from one fighter to the next.
Another thing in this was that Marvin was happy to sail along winning rounds with boxing, if you tried to go after him he was a killer, other wise he would just win rounds with tight boxing.Comment

I do believe Duran hit harder than anybody Floyd has ever fought. And I believe Duran was better than anybody Floyd has ever meet in the ring.Styles, punching power and Floyds frail hands is more a compounding handicap as the weight goes up, Floyd could beat Duran at 130-147, he is in those fights, now Duran being physically more robust makes MW more doable for his type and style than it does Floyd.

What is the best Floyd`s win anyway, past prime Pacquiao? Young Canelo?
You like to sht on Pacquiao, but you just hype Floyd too much.Comment

I would give Mosley more chance fighting Duran. But prime lightweight Mosley, of course, not old welterweight Mosley Floyd fought.Comment

I dont hype Floyd I give him just dues, its simple he is an ATG and capable of beating any fighter his weight and those ATGs are also capable of beating him, Im more grounded than you think and see things Floyd does that you dont thats why comparisons will never work for you.I do believe Duran hit harder than anybody Floyd has ever fought. And I believe Duran was better than anybody Floyd has ever meet in the ring.

- -Fake Ray blowing up his fake JoyBoy balloon is fake news.
What does Duran and Hearns say? They were the people's fighters in no need of fake retirements to blow up their records.Comment

I agree. floyd is exceptional, but he doesnt throw enough punches to win those kind of fights. Plus you have to win fights not just make it close against super fighters.Comment

Sadly we will never know. Classy of Leonard to say so though even if he secretly doesn't believe it. For the record though I think Leonard is being truthful and really does believe it.Comment

he would've struggle against Hearns, Marvin Hagler would be to big for him, i think SRL sleeps him honestly. Duran fight would be intresting to see.Comment
