    They already are. In 10 or 20 years Duran will go down in ranking. He is already is. His resume is weak in wins.

    You're an idiot..how old are you? 16-17.

    Give your head a shake and actually watch the guy fight FFS, what a silly thread. I became a fan of boxing because of Duran. And I'm 100% positive that Pac would consider it a great honor to be mentioned along side of Duran in terms of legacy. That's an amazing accomplishment.

    This whole general forum is pretty goofy, as you can't find anyone past 30 and nobody knows what the hell they're talking about. I'm generalizing I know, but when you read crap like this..it's not too much of an exageration.

    listen fool I am 56 years old and if you want to start calling names thats fine. Not sure what that will accomplish. I saw Duran fight over and over again. Who cares if you became a fan because of Duran, I became a fan because of Ali. A guy who could do it all and not just one gear and when that gear didn't work he excused his losses which was Duran.

    That again is a matter of oppinion, an oppinion which i do not share with you. I have only seen pac fight at lightweight once. He beat a guy named david diaz. I don't think david diaz is comprable to buchanan or de jesus.

    I admit Diaz is not the caliber of Buchanan or Dejesus and Duran would have easily beaten Diaz also, but the fashion which Manny beat guys above 135 shows he has improved since then. I think he would stop Diaz in the early rounds if he fought him now. his style is almost more dominant as he goes up in weight as it was lower, although he is getting hit a little more. Maybe he has just become a brawler more and uses his fast hands.

    TBH, I like to know what were the excuses of Duran in his losses against these great fighters?

    I know the Leonard II story, but I am sure he has no excuses against Hearns nor against Hagler.

    How about his other losses?

    Your's 56 & i'am 53 & it's obvious that you're a Leonard fan who has'nt got over the fact that Duran beat the **** out of your sweetheart & handed him his arse in Montreal. Out boxed/Out-fought & Out thought Leonard in all departments to become only the 2nd LW since hammering hank 50 years previous did it too win the WW crown & he beat the sports top dog, the P4P champ in Leonard or do you still cling the the illusion that it was a fluke fantasy:lol:

    Duran beat Leonard when it mattered when both were at their peaks so just accept the fact if yer'd been a Duran disciple you would'nt sound so bitter:lol:

    First off, an opinion can't be a lie ya pussheaded degenerate. There is no book saying Duran beat one great and PAc beat several lol. Nobody thinks Duran is overrated. Leonard wasn't green when he fought Duran. He wasn't even green when he beat beat Benitez for his first title. Half you guys don't evben know what is meant when you say a fighter is still green lol... They said PAc was green when he fought MAB, JMM and EM lol... GTFOOH with that lol...

    You didn't even see my point about Saul Mamby which means that all you think of is PAc's ***** lol... I dare you to say PAc is greater than Duran lol...I dare ya...:lol::nut Sorry, but I am a man who hated Duran, but I recognize greatness since he beat one of my favorite fighters of all time in Leonard.

    To say that PAc beat those men in their primes is comical lol... You even mentioned skinny 147 lb Dlh lol... Names, no substance. You didn't even mention JMM lol... Floyd Mayweather loses polls daily to PAc lol... Who's undefeated, and who isn't? Watch the records don't mean shite comments come lol...eve though we are talking about two fighters lol... Floyd even lost a who has the bigger ***** thread to PAc because every last ******* knows the size of both guys balls lol...
