    The Leonard fight was his first win over an elite great, yet Ray fought Duran's fight. The fact Duran did not beat any other greats is significant.

    Everyone else is a broken record so I might as well be one. I disagree with you. Many people think of Duran in the company of Robinson and Armstrong.

    You don't have a sense of humour, do you?

    When is comes to Duran I would think the excuses he made after his losses would be seen as humor, but people take them seriously and believe them. So how would I know when a joke is being made when it comes to Duran?

    Everything is repeating. If you keeping posting on a thread like this over and over, there will be the same points made over and over. I enjoy the message board, although I am not posting this stuff for kicks. I really do believe what I type. But I do not take it too seriously or get mad, and most of the people on the board know that.

    I did. He was cool. Concerned as hell for the money he thought he'd had to dish out to cover for his kid, but collected and polite the whole time.

    He is in almost everybody's top 5 on here. Stick around for awhile and you'll see he's pretty much considered a lock for top 5. Quite a few have him down as no.1.

    What you'll generally see on most P4P lists on here is Greb, Robinson at 1 and 2. At 3, alot rate Armstrong, but old whiteys may have Fitzsimmons. Charles and Duran almost always take up the 4 and 5 spots.

    I think if you posted a few emoticons(eg.:lol::roll::good) now and again it'd expose your personality abit more. You do kind of have the T1000 terminator thing going on:tong

    Though i cant picture you using emoticons, it'd be really weird

    from what i've seen, langford, greb, robinson, armstrong and charles all consistently rank above him. but maybe that's because i'm filtering out a lot of material without even realising it. if that's the case, my bad.

    Duran once saved a kids life by only beating him half to death, I don't see what you are getting at?
