    Duran wasn`t very good at super middle, by the end of his time at super middle Calzaghe was one of the best fighters of the 90`s.

    There is nothing to debate on this list. I know it. You know it...everyone knows it. That is why it got one JK response. There is nothing here

    I feel Paul Heaton would use the jab to overcome Gary Barlow.

    I’d rank them by height, but would have to look it up.

    That wouldn`t be that bad because it would point out why Duran wasn`t any good at super middle.

    Who said he was? And why did we need this thread if your agenda was merely to say Duran was not great at SMW? I don’t even find him a great MW either, but at least he was decent at that weight! Why do you insist on wasting our time with this drivel

    Sorry, but I think Duran was pretty good at middle and would have beat Eubank sr and Jr at that weight.

    Jr is a joke...I would take Sr. But some will agree with you on that
