    Duran was the greatest 135 man of all time,head to head one of the greatest at 147. At 154 and 160 he was at huge disadvantages but still good enough to trounce cuevas and moore,go 15 and give fits to hagler and beat a huge middle in barkley. No duran was not an atg at 160 but he could hold his own with many in history at 160. I dont think many stop duran at 160,and duran could beat many of the come forward brawler/puncher types at 160.
    Ps; barkley,benitez,hagler and many others were huge compared to duran also. I dont think pavlik is bigger than barkley who went to 175 then heavy.
