Is Duran's win over SRL the greatest single victory in the history of boxing?

[Szef]

Just rewatched the fight.

I can't think of any win that would be more impressive than Duran beating a future ATG and probably one of the best fighters to ever lace em up.

IMO only Ali's win over Foreman comes close.

What do you guys think?

[Ray Corso]

Not even close!!!

Leonard was the number 1 welter and Duran was the number 1 lightweight.
It was a close match with Duran out "fighting" Leonard and both showed their best!

There are many fights with underdogs winning over great champions that are more historical.

Definitely up there.

Amazing performance and victory.

Moving up and beating a top 20 ATG is extremely impressive. Definitely up there.

Yeah, exactly. Duran beat a guy who was 2 weight classes above him, Olympic golden medalist and ,like I said, probably one of the best p4p fighters ever. So what it was a close match? A win is a win

Like what ? Douglas beating Tyson?

thats not what he asked............he asked was it the single greatest win ever? and the answer to that is not even close. also the fight within it's self was razor close.

the "greatest win ever" is beyond ridiculous.........

It's up there.

I asked if Duran's win was the greatest no the most dominant.

And please name more impressive victories

[RlCKY]

Great win, but not decisive enough to call it the greatest win ever.

If Duran went out there and beat the **** out or SRL and stopped him, it would be an easy yes.

Frazier beating Ali is better in my eyes.
