    They weren't as skilled as him, they probably had as much talent as him (srl at least) but never reached that level, would Robinson have lost to Duran that night, that is not to sell Duran short, he was amazing that fight, best performance, but Robinson would be too clever for the likes of Duran, and he'd have beat a prime Hagler too, not wait till he slowed down, when did Robbie ever do that?

    Agreed, and if you think Leonard, MacFarland, Loughran, Walker and even to an extent a Sharkey in good condition don't look good either you're either ignorant or wrong
