    Yeah, the stream of **** running down Duran's leg and trailing him all the way to the sheds was much more evident than Robinson's stumbling all over the joint :lol:

    Duran didn't "SLUG" with Hagler by any stretch of the imagination.

    Obviously, I misread your post. Somehow I thought I read "Duran WAS having a near-death experience" and went a little nuts, lol.

    r u nuts? you did find out on June 20th, 1980. Duran KICKED HIS ASS I had Duran winning 11 rds. And once more Leonard himself said he wanted Duran out of shape for the rematch and he got it. Some brave fighter there.:dead

    If a fighter signs a fight, it is up to him to be in shape.

    Do not sign the contract if you are not going to get into the ring 100%. If you realize leading up to the fight that this is not possible, get it postponed.

    Duran dug his own grave. And Leonard clowned him to bury him. Duran decided that it wasn't worth chasing the target he wasn't gonna pin down and losing, and bailed, hoping that he could spin it against Ray and secure an immediate rematch.

    Instead, boxing public saw quit job and let Ray off the hook to bigger and better things.

    I dont consider no mas a quit job, but I do see it as a fair knock on Durans discipline.
    If anything was exposed about any fighter in New Orleans, it was this.

    Duran needed a poo.

    Well Alan Shearer did poo himself mid-game once. And like a true champion he wiped his arse on the pitch and carried on playing.

    i watched some arguello fight where he hit some black dude with a body shot and he pooped himself, sucks

    I read an article in SI that had a poll of athletes in various disciplines and 60%+ of them admitted to going #1 or #2 on themselves mid-game.
