I think 140 was closer to Durans best weight. Who takes this?? I got Duran by KO within 6. I highly doubt shakur’s best shots would keep Duran off of him. I actually think Duran wouldn’t even need to worry that much about constant pressure! He’d sharp shoot and outbox shakur for as long as it lasts. Lol But knowing Duran… he’d want to run over him
Duran lost most of his big fights after leaving 135. Right now Shakurs 1-0 with a very nice win. I will go with Shakur.
Duran was a 15 rd. fighter, a different breed that has been extinct for decades. He was a tireless destroyer, very rare in the fact that he was an extreme aggressor who was nearly impossible to hit cleanly when at his best. Shakur would have been running for his life for as long as it lasted, and would have had excruciatingly sore ribs for a long time after the fight ended. He has done nothing thus far that would lead me to believe that he would finish that fight upright. Just an opinion from an old and sentimental boxing fan.
The Duran who trained for Leaonard 1 is of thee best fighters to ever lace them up. So Duran, but he can't underestimate Shakur.
