    Duran would find a way to take away Lucas' power, and take advantage of his wide punches

    It's gettin abit stupid this now. He couldn't do what Tim Bradley did to Devon! He couldn't do what Carlos ****in baldomir did to zab ..... Duran takes his best, spits in his face and ruins him, absolutely ruins him. It's disrespectful to even think otherwise

    Duran was a verastile brawler. Lucas' style was made for Duran, not vica versa. Depending on Lucas' chin, I don't know if it's good or bad, Duran KO's or UD's him.

    This. TS needs to do his homework on Duran. You don't become a top-10 ATG by just being a slugger.

    For now, Duran by late T/KO is the only reasonable choice, IMO. Maybe you can ask me in 3-5 years when Matthysse retires -- I presume the same opinion then.

    Duran, slugger? Have you ever seen a Duran fight?
    Hearns did? Hearns had a 6'1 frame with 78" reach of pure dynamite power, and with speed that Matthysse could only ever dream of having.

    Please..... :patsch
