    I want to know what you guys think if Chavez Sr would have fought Roberto Duran at 135lbs? Who wins and how?

    Everyone will say Duran. He slipped punches, he was brutal blah blah. The punk quit in one of the most important fights in boxing history. He still gets so much respect even if he did display that he didnt give a **** about the fans.

    Chavez just has no advantage over Duran. Duran did everything Chavez did and even better and he had more versatility. He´s just better all around. Chavez would bring the best out of Duran. Best fight that could be made at lw imo. Duran UD15.

    you probably havent seen Duran in his prime.

    Chavez doesnt have the style to beat Duran.

    ive seen Chavez at his prime and even at his prime he struggled against guys like Lockridge and Laporte.

    its just a matter of styles duran had trouble with movers and not guys that would come at him.of course i dont expect him to have an easy time against Chavez cause nobody would have an easy time against prime Chavez but i expect him to win.

    one thing is certain this would be a war and we would see more action in this fight than in Gayweathers entire career.
