    How could Leonard underestimate Duran if he admitted his concern was he was biting off more than he could chew. Randy Gordon said Ray was missing his usual confidence.

    His fears were realized as early as the second round and would reoccur every couple of rounds.

    That was total BS "Never caught off guard again"

    Seems to me he was overconfident, actually believing his own press clippings when he walked in with Norris. His mistake was believing the reports that he was a legend of some sort instead of remembering that the youngens were strictly off limits. :bbb :!:

    You've been getting enough of a thrashing from 3 or 4 others of late without me continually adding to it Rooter. I can scale back for a bit
