    Both are at lightweight. Who comes out on top?

    15 rounds.

    Durans superior defensive abilities make the difference here.Duran slowly beats Armstrong down, and in the 15th, an exhausted, battered Armstrong is counted out.

    My prediction -- PAIN. Just all around PAIN. Everybody's the winner here.

    And I have no idea who would win this one.

    Duran's the more skilled boxer. Great matchup though.

    Great match-up, but done to death.
