Barney Ross vs Roberto Duran 15 rds

Need to watch more Ross just going off the Armstrong fight seems he wasn't the best against an great infighter so Duran probably wins? Idk I'm sure he beat some great infighter i never heard of but that's my initial reaction. Feel free to school me on Ross @Journeyman92

 

Duran UD

 

That was the last fight of his career. He was a master of minimal moves, those little shifts in angles that keep you in a position where you can hit him but he can't hit you.

 

This would be a very good fight. Ross was every bit as good as DeJesus; better in my opinion.. The close range fighting would be off the charts.

 

at their best? Roberto Duran, barely.

 

Like someone already said…I wish there was more film on Ross ….because I guess we could say that about a ton of guys

 

Considerably better, in my opinion. If I decide to sit down and watch some fights with the intention of learning something, DeJesus wouldn't be on my list. Ross would be- more often if not always.

 

What's a good fight to watch to get a good sense of him as a fighter?

 

As much as we want to we can't escape the bane of HW.......

 

This pretty much. I see Duran actually controlling the distance better based on the film I have seen of Ross. The infighting would be spectacular. I see Duran maneuvering a slightly better, a little quicker. A close decision over 15.

 

His fight with Billy Petrolle is a good one though, to be fair, it was Petrolle's last fight.
