    The difference between at lightweight is that Duran faced top-nottch opposition and Hall of Famers, Mosley fought bums. Duran will give Mosley a beating and a bad one that is. Mosley never fought anybody close to Duran at lightweight, he isn't a class above Mosley's opponents there bu 4-5 leagues.

    Duran eats combinations all night, 'til he bails out round about 8 rounds......

    No Mas! No Mas!



    God bless.

    Duran by decision, Mosley has a granite chin even for the "hands of stone".

    Duran of course. Probably the best at 135.

    Mosley was a beast at lightweight. His best wins were over Holliday, Molina, Leija, Johnson, and Brown. Decent fighters but not on the level of Duran's opposition at Lightweight.

    Don't forget how fast Mosley was at 135. Ridiculously fast.

    Hmm.
