    i get the idea that duran was just on another planet in terms of boxing and power

    but duran quit when frustrated vs a flashy and cocky leonard

    if maywheather does the same head games may duran fold or fight such a dumb fight he loses

    maybe im reaching here but is it possibble floyd gets in his head

    my pick is duran however

    Duran. Any other answer is wrong and displays a complete lack of knowledge. If I offend you, go watch Duran's first 73 fights.

    Pacquiao and Haye fans are the same people. I'm sure.

    They just cling on to whoevers the rival of the loud black guy (who reminds them of someone who stole their car)

    Leonard was a heck of a lot more aggresive, and easy to hit, than a guy like Mayweather.

    You guys are just delusional

    Basically everyone linked to the fight, on both sides, has admitted that the fight never happened as they couldn't agree drug tests!?

    Floyd made it clear as day, in his press conference, that Pacquiao only wanted to do random drug testing at certain times. Manny's manager has agreed with this appraisal

    I swear, Phillipinos prefer just repeating myths, than dealing with reality

    Castillo was heavier in ring against Mayweather than Oscar was against Pacquiao.

    What's more, he was way more dangerous at the time, being peak. What's more, Mayweather was a heck of a lot lighter at 135 than Manny was at Welter!?

    What's more, Floyd was 21 when that fight happened. Very green.

    Lot of stupidity with this fight.

    Floyd went in with a Welterweight, at 21, at a huge weight disadvantage, and underestimated him.

    Soon as he adjusted 3 months later, bulked up, he schooled the guy

    This is more a eulogy than reality

    Duran struggled in plenty of fights at 135. And against guys nowhere near as good as Mayweather

    Duran is probably the greatest h2h lightweight of all time. He was a complete fighter with no real weakness. We all saw what he did to a bigger prime ray leonard.
