    Roberto “Manos de Piedra” Duran vs Terrence “Bud” Crawford @ 140

    Who wins in this mouthwatering showdown between two intelligent fighters with killer instincts?

    Bud is a versatile switch hitter with speed an power plus footwork on top having good timing!

    Duran is a very heavy handed sneaky aggressive counter puncher Who’s excellent inside fighter and very rugged with endless stamina!

    Whew this would be a good fight. I've only seen Bud fight a couple of times. I'd lean towards Duran due to his vast experience

      MDP by brutal knockout.

      People forget that Kavaliaiauskasus dropped Crawford hard and little Gamboa had him on spaghetti legs.

        Lol...Duran would brutalize Crawford and knock him out. This isn't Dierry Jean. If you compare the level of opposition, it's just...hilarious.

          This is a very good match up. On paper, Duran is by far the better and more superior fighter. Both his resume and legacy speak for themselves.

          While on the other hand, Bud may be a bit tougher than Duran. History has shown that once Duran becomes frustrated he shuts down and becomes a broken fighter.

          Also, Duran has always had trouble with boxers. I don't know. Anyone's guess is as good as mine.

          Right now, I am slightly leaning towards Crawford. However, the fight could just as easily go the other way.

            Ok so let me just say that Bud would have vacated every weight class just to avoid fighting Durán. With that said I also remember the trouble Bud had with a 120 lbs Gamboa! Durán by brutal KO in the 4th round

              Duran was great at 140. Crawford is great too. I'll pick Duran to win.

                Bud gives a good account of himself and has some moments but Duran ultimately takes over and stops him in the tenth.

                  Duran is a ATG, Crawford is good but hes not there yet.His resume isn't great.

                    I think Duran wins by KO.
