    I remember from his autobiography,

    He was once training doing mitt work and shadowboxing in the ring, while a reporter or just a fan kept shouting "PIPINO CUEVAS WILL KNOCK YOU OUT"
    After repeating this 5-10 times Duran flipped and ran to the ropes shouting "PIPINO CUEVAS CAN SUCK MY ****"

    Haha he didnt.

    Apparently Duran was very quiet in the build up of the Hearns fight, and seemed a tad uncomfortable and wanted to get out as soon as possible whenever he was around Hearns.

    Which is the complete opposite to how he was around Sugar Ray and Hagler

    Who in their right mind would want any part of Duran in a street fight ? Rumor had it that Frazier said he`d want no part of Duran outside the ropes... Learned how to scrap in the streets growing up in Panama...
