    A fantastic choice of fight to watch. I greatly look forward to watching this tonight! Duran looked great, considering his huge career behind him.

    Another great video! And not wine this time. You don't need alcohol, your analysis is spot on. I agree with you, such a tough fight to score. For me it is so easy to be biased towards Duran as he is such a endearing fighter. Two great choices of fights to analyse so far, there is a lot to pick apart in them. Duran was tough. Iran Barkley fought some amazing guys- Hearns, Nunn, Benn, Toney, Duran, Sumba Kalumbay........ He never had it easy and did very well in his career all things considering.

    I know I have suggested it before but I think, if you are thinking of options for another video, Chavez vs Rosario would be a great fight to do one on. Perhaps the greatest performance ever from the greatest Mexican fighter of all time, again a huge puncher. The subtle defence of Chavez was tremendous in this fight.

    As I commented some days ago, this fight was the Swan Song of Duran. He looked superb in this fight.

    Great fight. No holding two guys showing heart, skills and power. A battle of wills to a certain extent. Duran just a little more skills.

    I've never watched that fight before, i'll give it a look tonight if I'm not dead tired after work. That said there is a music festival taking place directly outside of it. As in they shut down the street and put up tents outside the building.

    BTW it was more than just coke in that glass.
