    Who did Duran cherry pick? He climbed in the ring with everyone win or lose.

    So Duran fights the best Lighweight's available. Te best Welter available ( Leonard ) arguably the best Light Middle available ( Hearns ) definitely the best Middle available ( Hagler ) and he is a cherry picker?

    Are these fools who post this garbage all under 18?

    Duran's had well over 100+ fights. They're not all gonna be superstars, but look at his list.

    as for the margarito fight

    a fight between them was about to be made but mayweather was offered 8 million...pacquiao was given 34 million

    plus if he took that fight he wouldnt have gotten the DLH fight

    Duran obviously ducked Everyone in 1985. Otherwise, he was ok.
