    WTF Virgil Hill is not that good, a win like that from a former leight weight would be average at gest.

    Yes. I believe that Mayweather is a top 10 All time great. I am certain he is better than Duran.

    it was a great win. Virgil Hill is a HOF fighter and better than anyone whom Duran beat after moving to welt. And that is a fact. Virgil in 1991 had 10 defenses and was undefeated. The Ray Leonard that Duran beat who fought Roberto's fight was green and on his second title defense of his first reign. In the Rematch Ray easily beat Duran as we all know.

    Saying Hill is not good are just words. Duran wishes he could have beaten the caliber of a Virgil Hill, and had he beaten Virgil, all Duran fans would be saying he beat an all time great. Where is the quality guy Duran beat better than Virgil Hill past welt? And undefeated guy with 10 title defenses. Hill had almost as many title defenses when he fought Hearns as Davey Moore had fights when he fought Duran. The Barkley fight to me was not impresses. Duran had a guy who fought his inside fight and Barkley was not fast. Perfect style for Duran.

    What are you talking about?

    My false gods are Sam Langford and Harry Greb (duotheism).

    Everybody knows that.
