Who else has ever had the streets rammed for a boxing hero's homecoming such as... DURAN the GREAT:yep My very special glove This content is protected Uploaded with ImageShack.us This content is protected Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Duran is the greatest P4P boxer that has ever lived. He could have won titles in any era against the best light weights to have ever lived. A tremendous fighter that came to fight. He could box, infight, counterpunch and had great defense. Duran fought monster size guys compayerd to his own physical size. Let's see Mayweather, Pacquiao, Marquez or any other smaller weight fighters take on Iran Barkley at the heavier weight. Iran was a monster, and knocked out Tommy Hearns twice, and Hearns had previously beat Duran. He was a born fighter that deserves to be hailed as the best all around pure fighter ever. Better than Ali, Louis, Mayweather, Barrera, Lennox Lewis, James Toney, Roy Jones, and so on and so on. At his weight and in his prime, no one was better. Look at how he did with Marvin Hagler at Duran's advanced age. He gave Leonard the blueprint on how to beat him. The greatest fighter ever. Roberto Manos de Piedra Duran. Thanks for the video.
Simply amazing fighter. It's easy to forget that this was a LW who got older and moved up to the higher weight divisions, fighting very high quality competition, and usually winning or at least holding his own. I mean, how on earth did Duran get in the ring with Hearns, Barkley, Hagler? That's nuts for a former LW. Great as he is, could you imagine JMM fighting Martinez or Ward?
Thanks a lot! Great vid!. Great fighter. Very skilled, not a poet in the ring. He truely embodied the fierce brutality of the sport. To be a true legend you have the have an extra special toughness (like a pacquiao). And Duran had that more then almost anyone I've ever seen.
i wish i had a screenshot of that ESPN poll that had pac way ahead on the fantasy fight vote poll against Duran.. it always gives me the chuckles GOAT at lightweight
