All three of these tough men may have been described as 'rugged' at this particular weight. But they were supreme fighters, too. Emile Griffith, Roberto Duran, Mickey Walker. Who do you think comes out on top in a round robin at Welter?
My pick would be Walker. Griffith has a good chance too. Duran was a level below them at welter I think.
I think Duran at 147 would nail Walker often and bust him up for a decision ,he's the better fighter. Griffith? , he's a damn good welterweight who could fight with anyone.Don't know, but Duran is an all time great pound for pound and at his best could be favored over Emile
Walker is one amazing fighter and i could see his aggression and workrate taking him to a decision win over Duran. I think Duran and Walker would decision Griffith in high quality contests.
