    yeah it's just tool bad this fight is at 154 :patsch

    That's actually somewhat true, but I think Duran gives Floyd more problems than Floyd gives him.

    Duran generally had trouble motivating himself to train when it came to fighting the most skilled and accomplished fighters that he would ever meet in his career.

    Duran knocks Floyd out. One sided affair.

    you don't even need to watch the first Castillo vs PBF fight (which Castillo won imo), even from the 2nd it's easy to see that Duran vs Floyd can only finish 1 way.

    Man Duran couldn't knock Kirkland Laing out when Duran was contesting at light middleweight. Matter fact, he couldn't even beat him. :patsch

    yeah funny how that works. He only had trouble motivating himself for his biggest fights with his best opponents, and that's the ONLY reason he got embarassed.

    Oh, so he was just so disappointed with himself he had to QUIT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIGHT. Totally excusable, he was just soooooo frustrated that he couldn't show his usual excellence, so he just walked out. **** the promoters, **** the fans, **** the audience at home, **** SRL. Yeah I completely understand. I'm sure you'd forgive Floyd or Manny for doing that. Sure you would.

    And I'm not at all convinced that Duran would do well vs the LW's that Floyd fought. They're better than any HE fought during his reign and he didn't escape untouched.

    Duran would beat Floyd easy. Floyd would be crushed.

    Devon. "My eyes... It hurts, I cant see. My eyes"

    OR

    "Pacquiao your next"

    "I didnt say that....Dont put words into my mouth, I only said that coz that's what the fan wanted to hear"

    Floyd made his ***** move before he even step inside the ring with manny.

    finally someone with logic, Manny and Floyd might not be the GOAT but they've showed that they are the best of this era and could probably compete with anyone of other eras Manny last lost a fight in 2005 and and Mayweather has never lost and hasnt had a competitive fight since De La Hoya at a weight class he does not belong in
