    He looks good. He was pretty fat not too long ago. He's still overrated.

    Duran kicks back with me once every while, I always ask him 'when were you in the best shape Roberto' and he always says 'In the second Leonard fight, unfortunately I could just never deal with the movement'

    He's still enjoying the fact that he's a top ten ATG fighter despite what PP and Mag would like you to believe

    When Duran's name's mentioned, the first time i saw him flashes to mind, not this benign, bloated hail-fellow-well-met. He was mingling ringside at MSG after tearing-to-pieces a solid journeyman within seconds of the opening bell in his U.S. debut on the undercard.

    He was reed-thin in a bloused, floral Hawaiian shirt, almost a dead-ringer for "Indian" Ortega, with his spiked black hair. He accepted congratulations with a nod. When he turned in my direction, his coal-black eyes were chilling.

    Nah, real men wear floral shirts. Flowers are really macho.
