    Ray Leonard struggled with Mayweather Sr`s philly shell when they met in the 70`s but did Duran everr come across an opponent trying this defense?

    Not a bout Mark, but you'll find this interesting I think.

    Thank god you mentioned Roberto Duran was a boxer or I would have assumed he was the lead singer of that band in the 1980s.

    I`m sure George Benton wouldn`t have minded his stance being called Philly shell.
