I just thought that Leonard made a point of not playing into his hands, and that speed clearly worked for him very nicely. And yeah that's what i meant about the 99% thing.
I reckon we could think of some, like i said you're not wrong, i just don't like saying definitely on anything, that's all. You're right in fact, (probably!)
Well you could say that Duran and Leonard both waged war on the inside and the slower guy won. Only in a light though, as you could say Leonard tried to box around the ring on his tiptoes and wasn't allowed to. (kidding Robbi)
there are exceptions surely no Duran maximised his strenghts and took leonards weaknesses. This wasnt a similar fight Duran out smarted Leonard
In my opinion at points of the fight they did have similar ideas, like when they were standing on the outside, both wanted to get off first, the slower man did, then when once on the inside, the slower man was better also. Just my opinion, that's how i saw it personally.
i thinkDuran controlled that fight better and was the general so to speak and Duran wasnt much slower in terms of overall speed
I know, he was slower though, his speed is underrated i'm glad you know that. Duran defo the boss in there, but at the same time at points they were defo attempting the same stuff, with Duran doing better.
Duran won that fight by controlling it and taking away leonards speed IMO they did similar things but Duran was 1 step ahead and getting off first
You know that there's going to be a large amount of people on here that think they fought the same fight and the slower man won on just eing better, don't you? That's what a lot of people think. While i agree to you to an extent, my statements in the above posts i made stand. I respect you got a different opinion. BUT I THINK YOU'RE JUST BEING ARGUMENTATIVE NOW!!!!!! (kidding)
i can see where your coming from and the slower fighter did win when both fighters fought ssimilarly. I think he just was one step ahead and Leonard was almost watching him then copying. typical scouse wanting a confrontation
Haha, yeah Duran was the boss, and when he dragged him into a brawl he was just better despite being slower. That's all i meant. **** i just realised, i'm an East Side Guru. Elated.
dont know what i am. Duran was slower but not that much slower better finish this duran leonard stuff now every thread has it in it now
I know yeah, the classic's becoming mad with it. I said the other day we shouldn't mention Duran or Whitaker for a month, but i got outright ignored. Start a campaign if you like. You're a Guru as well, it says above your avatar.
i am a Guru :happy no i like the whittaker and Duran discussions because theres so many different discussions to be had. I can claim to have started this duran craze with my duran vs leaonrd 1 thread. i even said what have i done. Burley vs Duran at WW who do you see it
