    i think you mean more skilled cause neither is the most skilled

    sadly my Duran knowledge is not as good as it should be

    but id be willing to say he is a better boxer

    going by his close but clear win over Leonard as a prime example

    the guy was a wizard in the ring

    Floyds great too, this is a tough call cause both men are different styles but experts in their own way

    i will say i dont know any examples of Duran neutralizing and dominating guys in the way Floyd has

    Do we really have to do this? Floyd is far more skilled than Duran. Its not even close!!!

    How not? The only advantage Duran has on Floyd is punching power.

    Chin,Stamina,Defense,Counter-Punching,Foot-movement, Punch-Selection,Timing. What else you got? You name it, Mayweather has the advantage excluding power.

    This is why the General Forum can't have nice things.
