    I don’t know. On one hand Duran was leagues better than fundora but on the other he would be dwarfed by all that height and reach

    Thurman had three inches of reach on Duran and an inch or two in height. He couldn’t get anywhere near Fundora.

    And? Fundora isn't Tommy Hearns.

    Brian Mendoza and Tim Tszyu do as well. Go watch Mendoza KO Fundora and Tszyu light him up like a christmas tree in the first fight before being cut by the elbow which swung the momentum of the fight.

    He’s not Iran Barkley either but …

    Navigating Hearns’ reach is closer to what he’d have to do vs Fundora. Iran was not a guy who ‘fought long’ or ‘fought tall.’

    You don’t watch boxing anymore if you think Fundora still fights like he did a few years ago. I didn’t take him seriously back then.

    Sure. KOing a world beater like Booker, damaged Tszyu and ancient Thurman clearly prove that.

    Please, in all seriousness Roberto ends this guys career.
    He doesn’t have one shot power like Hearns, or the elite defensive skills and radar of el radar. Fundoras body is there to be hit by a none 37 yr old Thurman, It looks like Davey Moore all over again.
    Duran KO Skeletor in 5-6

    Three guys who are at or above Mendoza’s level.

    And who damaged Tsyzu again?

    Tim had already gotten his ass beat.

    Let’s use Duran from the Laing fight if it’s Fundora from the Mendoza fight. Only fair.

    You obviously don't watch boxing. Tim was on the cusp of securing an early stoppage before Fundora busted him wide open with an elbow, even then the fight was still competitive down the stretch.

    It’s clear that your emotions are affecting your memory of that fight. And Fundora has improved significantly since then.
