    that is a rhetorical question, not a statement of fact.

    Now dumb ass has lost track of his whole argument. Let me refresh you're memory.


    You've clearly indicated here that Floyd could hurt Duran enough to "hesitate before rushing in" and that 'Despite the hype Duran does feel pain and does give a **** and tries not to get hit."

    And my reply was I don't recall any fight Duran was in in which a counter-puncher hurt him to the point the was hestitant to start landing his shots.

    You then used SRL I & II as examples of where this happened.

    But the only problem with this whole story is that it never happened. SRL never hurt Duran to the point that he was scared of landing his punches and Floyd sure as hell won't hurt him to that degree either. Floyd might run for 12-15 rounds and perhaps win a decision, but he sure as hell isn't going to make Duran hesitate to throw punches because he's scared of getting hurt. That's preposterous.

    And the remark about Duran's poor defense is equally ignorant.

    Are you suggesting that Floyd can't make Duran hesitate? So he just waltz in there defenseless when he fights huh? Keep digging! Keep setting yourself up. If Duran doesn't feel pain why bother to keep his hands up AT ALL? such a ****ing dumbass. QUOTE ME WHERE I SAID THAT DURAN HAVE A **** POOR DEFENSE. Keep digging at the end you just going back to looking like an ass again.

    wanna quote me as hestiate = scare and not a defensive wizard = **** poor defense. Your brain function in one way huh

    "A rhetorical question is a figure of speech in the form of a question that is asked in order to make a point"

    The point of that particular rhetorical question was that Leonard had hurt Duran, if it wasn't then why even ask it? What would be the point?

    I'm telling you point black that if they fought and they were in close quarters Duran would beat the living crap out of Floyd.

    Period end of story.

    And Duran had a good enough defensive/offensive to stand 1-3 feet way from Floyd and destroy him.

    Actually it would be interesting to watch, Floyd would end up doing a better chicken dance than Judah did. :rofl

    Now if Floyd were to try moving around for 12 rounds he might stand a chance, but nobody in their right mind is going to pick Floyd to win a war up close.

    Take a poll if you don't believe me (I dare you)

    Dumb Ass

    Okay you've obviously had enough of this. It's starting to resemble a Duran - Moore type of beat down. :lol:

    In all honesty, I think the 154 version of Duran likely would suffer the same fate against FMJ that he did against Benitez and Laing. Part of that is that MDP was at a flat point in his career following New Orleans, and didn't fight with the same type of intensity during his tenure at the weight that he did in the past. He was still good enough to eviscerate sluggers like Cuevas and offensively dynamic power-boxers like Bronx Davey Moore, but against defensively adept fighters at that time and at that weight, he stood a good chance of being out-boxed.

    At 135-147, Duran decisions Floyd, though not without difficulty. He's not stopping someone who has displayed underrated toughness, but he finds a way to work inside and get enough business done to win a majority of rounds.

    As for SRL, see Benitez fight. Take away the kd's and allow Floyd to make it to the final bell. Leonard wins a competitive but clear decision in that case, and that's the most likely outcome in a hypothetical SRL-FMJ match-up regardless of weight.
