    Could Kenty manage to get Duran into the late rounds and upset him, or does Roberto just totally walk over Hilmer?

    If the Bubblegum Kid could overcome Hilmer, it does not seem too promising what Duran ...at his legendary best weight could do to Hilmer,
    Some Duran Victims Like Buchanan, Dejuses Lampkin ect may be favoured to defeat Hilmer Handily...Duran himself....i can not picture it, when the animal in Duran surfaces Hilmer would appear rather frail i feel.
    Holmer a good fighter against good fighters...but against one of the greatest....

    As Duran enters the ring "These Boots are Made for Walking" is
    playing over the loud speaker.

    Hilmer didn't have the strength to deal with Duran who was better at every facet of the game. Duran would have seriously roughed him up and stopped him. Absolutely no chance for an upset in this fight.

    I would of been cliche and misquoted Holmes:

    Kenty could not carry Duran's... Hands of stone.;)

    Duran, first degree murder. Kenty would have been average for as long as he was competitive.

    Duran wins easily. Interesting question though, since Kenty trained by Emanuel Steward and another of his fighters blew out Duran.
