    Medonza, I've watched Duran's entire career and I don't recall even once where he went into safety first mode (or even safety oriented) can you reference me a couple of fights to prove your point.

    Hell outside of Hearns I can't even think of many time Duran was even hurt. He took shots from Hagler, Moore and Barkley and kept coming and you're trying to suggest Floyd brittle hands Mayweather would hurt him?

    It's not happening. What is happening is Duran keeps on coming and either Mayweather runs and maybe gets a decision, or he gets KO'd or if not KO'd looses by clear decision. Btw, no fighter wants to get stuck on the ropes or in a corner, it's usually something that is imposed on a fighter.

    You got me there Kevin lol I do not like Floyd Mayweather and think he's overrated. I honestly believe Duran would hate him for the same reason he hated Leonard and would never allow such a person to ever beat him (if they only had one fight that is lol).
