Fritzie Zivic vs Roberto Duran

guys like viruet and leonard ****ed duran off in a good way, zivic would **** him off in the wrong way and bring out his best.

the biggest difference between the two would be duran's power?

duran decision, would be a competitive fight but a decisive result imo.

 

Who did Duran stop at welter apart from Cuevas? Zivic had a good chin he was rarely stopped in his prime and he was strong enough to rough it with Armstrong ,and Lamotta, this is a toss up at 147lb s,imo

 

I got Duran.
Like both guys alot. Duran is one of my top 3 ATF.
I just c this as a UD for Duran

 

I too see this as a distance fight. Duran didn't carry the same pop into 147 that he had at 135 and Fritzie was tough as nails as well as having the type of skill set that could beat Henry Armstrong, Eddie Booker and give hell to Charley Burley. So, it wasn't all about banging. This fight would definitely go 15. However, I do see Duran taking the decision in a fight that would probably give the referee a harrowing time as well as having the fans on their feet.

 

I'd pick Duran by decision.

 

Agree, if pushed maybe Duran by a hair.

 

great fight
I think its pretty obvious that this fight is mostly gonna take place on the inside Duran really was the maestro of infighting. Zivic and duran both have solid chins I do not think either of theme is getting knocked out maybe stopped
Duran by decision

 

Zivic was so tough and dirty there is a chance for a no mas.

This would be a very tough fight. I like Duran in what could be a split decision.

 

So what exactly did Zivic do that was better than Duran?

 

Zivic had a better chin and likely better power @ 147. Tougher as well.

If Duran boxes, he wins easier. If he engages like he usually does, its a war!

Strangely enough, I do not recall seeing Zivic on film! Is there any?

Maybe these Pittsburgh-based fighters just don't have any film left on them.

 

Duran by UD15

 

I don’t think Zivic had the skills necessary to keep up with Duran, and I say that honestly because I love zivic,
