    floyd was a great 135 fighter, one of the best of all time however Duran IS the best lightweight of all time. if castillo can give floyd a 'test' (ahem) then Duran could certainly beat him

    what a fight though

    Duran was a monster at 135.

    Duran would simply wear Floyd down.

    Yea based on what I saw in Mayweather vs. Castillo I I say that Duran makes Mayweathers bike run outta gas.... Great fight but I don't see May K'Oing Duran, he may be able to squeak out a Split Decision.. But in all honesty.. Duran gets May..

    Why just bring up the only fight that he came close to a loss in when he was injured,what about the fm that smashed corrales to bits?

    I agree duran is the greatest lightweight ever but doesnt mean there arent certain fighters who may have beaten him through the years head to head

    Hard to pick anyone over Duran at 135 pounds.

    Mayweather wins 7 of out 10.. His speed, skill and adaptation/generalship is what makes him the best lightweight IMO

    I agree Floyd is a defensive wizard and Duran had major problems when he fought SRL and Benitez who were slick fighters themselves.
