    Yep. For those of you who say Duran would cornor Mayweather. It won't matter, Mayweather will counter Duran off the ropes. For those of you who ask when did Mayweather take on or beat anyone as good as Duran. I have a question for you. When other than a tottaly complaint Leonard in their first fight did Duran beat anyone as good as Mayweather? Uneless Mayweather goes into the fight injured. He would beat Duran at any weight, and have an easy time doing so.

    The only thing which would be dropped is the infamous quote "no mas"

    You can't shut anyone up ..So then tell me what makes you think that Floyd can beat an all time great like Duran ? Who have you seen Floyd soundly beat that was as skilled as a prime Duran ? Oh wait why bother to argue ,we all know Floyd would have never taken a fight like that ..Im sure he would have challenged the Duran William Joppy beat !

    In the words of the illustrious Larry Holmes Mayweather isnt fit to carry Duran's jockstrap

    You dumbass who the f**k did Duran beat that was as good as FLoyd jr? Two people can play that game *****. Hey Floyd at least Floyd is still beating champs at age 35 what was Duran doing at age 35?

    If Floyd and Duran were in the same division, Floyd would never even dare say Duran's name. A bad match up for Floyd here.

    This would be a hard fight for Floyd, but I'm picking Duran. Duran was invinsible at lightweight.

    Like it'd be easy for Duran? Duran had problems with Dejesus and Buchanan at the weight.

    I never said it would be easy, but he doesn't beat Duran there. Floyd struggled against Jose Luis Castillo at that weight and he got knocked down by Carlos Hernandez because pain in his hand.

    People are so funny when they act like Duran couldn't beat Mayweather at 147, as if Mayweather has ever had a performance of comparable quality against an opponent as good as Carlos Palomino or Ray Leonard. This **** gets passed on like fact without any real basis for it. Duran looked as good as he ever did in those two fights.
