    Am I being punked??? Duran by KO. Any version of prime Duran (which is as a lightweight) badly beats any version of prime Inoue at any weight he's been.

    I love Inoue, but come on, be reasonable
    Duran is the Goat of the last 50 or 60 years and would break him. Be tough at the start, but Duran has too much and would put pressure on him like nobody has

    Duran mid to late round stoppage

    Stupid thread. Duran started as a lightweight. Inoue will never make it that far.

    Duran is one of the best to ever do it. Inoue is great Duran is ATG, that and Duran naturally fighting at higher weights makes it a very tough task for "The Monster".

    I'm ashamed of @JOKER. Why didn't he think of this thread?

    I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic but, if not, then clueless is a very apt adjective.

    He fought DeJesus the first time when he was 19 at lightweight. He never had any meaningful fights below that weight. So, any possible fight between Inoue and Duran below lightweight is a ridiculous proposition.
