Pick A Featherweight to step up to Lighweight To Take Beat Duran

Hell to the no...and I'm one of his biggest fans.

 

who is the technician with brilliant defence?

 

Chris John

 

Saddler fights nothing like Hearns though, yes they have similar frames but there styles were polar opposites in real terms.

I dont see the comparison here, and the fact that Arguello put up that good of fight while past his prime and 2 weights above his prime weight, speaks volumes about his ability.

Personally, I dont think Alexis could beat Duran but what a fight it would be. I just think Durans a bit too fluid for Arguellos rigidness.

Interesting post, would have never considered Elorde

 

None. Before his lightweight peak he beat one of the greatest feathers of all time.

 

Willie Pep, Hank Armstrong.

 

Who keeps bringing back these old threads.....Thinblack?

 

Sanchez

 

None, in my opinion. In fact I'd pick very few of them to even last the distance. The FW versions of Armstrong and Canzoneri are the best bet to finish on their feet. Pep and Saddler both get stopped, as does Salvador Sanchez and Azumah Nelson.
