Best win at 147, Duran over Leonard or Leonard over Hearns?

Duran & Floyd Sr. for stoppage....

 

i wonder how Ray would answer this question. :huh

 

I go with Duran. Sure Hearns was a tall order, but Duran moving up in weight after having a full career already at lightweight against the golden boy of the Era is a massive accomplishment.

 

I love how whenever I post a response, it changes the flow of the thread to people agreeing with my logic, but no one ackowledging me. Bunch of parrots up on esb

 

Duran and it's not very close.

 

Duran over leonard

 

I don't know. When someone here matches up Hearns vs most welterweights, most people have Hearns by KO. Leonard beat HIM by KO. That was a huge win.

 

Easy pick Duran over leonard.

 

Hearns was so drained

Duran was already past his best when he fought a prime Leonard at Leonard's best weight

And easily schooled him

 

Good post. yes Duran did not train for Leonard II

 

Great post. :good

 

duran

 

I'll have to go with Duran on this one. SRL was a beast of a WW and had a lot of stylistic advantages over Duran, including his physical prime and being a natural WW. What Duran did to a very skillful and talented SRL will go down as one of the best wins in history. Simply outstanding.

 

Both are Great but Duran over SRL was a far bigger shock
