    Duran is no Ernesto Espana. Kenty was good but has zero chance here.

    Duran would've destroyed Kenty and O'Grady on the same night back-to-back.

    Maybe the other Leonard would beg to differ; but he would be one of the very few with a case to dispute your statement.

    If Duran trains hard he might send him to the morgue instead of the hosptial.

    This would have been one of Duran's more brutal ring-rapes. If Kenty thought that O'Grady was hard to deal with, well he would have been on a different planet with Duran.

    The only chance Hilmer has of beating Roberto, is if this is the early championship Duran, where he has a slim chance of a close decision.Otherwise, Duran wins in the fifth, or sixth round.

    :huh The only chance of Hilmer winning is if Duran makes the mistake of showing up in France, when the fight is in Paris, Texas, thus Kenty wins by default...

    Terrible mismatch, it would be Kenty's last fight. I really doubt Emanuel would put him in with Duran.

    I agree with what someone said. O Grady beating him is not good for Kenty.
