    I'm guessing at 147? Its hard to say without WW Walker footage but Walker lost to worse fighters at the weight and likely wasn't yet primed until he moved upto 160. I think Duran's skill, speed and experience sees him win through here

    I think Walker takes this. This would be a bull vs. bull match-up and Walker is the bigger bull here, even though Duran would be more experienced and skilled.

    Toy Bulldog by UD. Duran is technically better but Walker is the bigger man, whose own aggression and pressure edges it for him.
