    You've answered your own question Buck.

    You remind me of an argument I head red rooster who asked,"who, other than Hearns, Duran, Hagler and Benitez, did SRL ever beat ?"

    He didn't even get the humour in his own question.

    You've mentioned a victory over Triinidad and Mosley.

    Add Quartey and Whittaker, close as they were. You might score those two either way but they certainly weren't robberies.

    Add Vargas, Chavez and Genaro and he has at least enough to be considered pretty decent from 130 - 154.

    Yes Like I said, i thought he won the 2nd Mosley fight and Trinidad but thought he lost to Whitaker,Quartey and Sturm so take it for whats its worth.

    yeah hes got some good wins but Im saying the man is overrated. People need to look up the term. He was hailed as the next damn SRL or whatever but lost so many ofr his big fights!!

    Just imagine if this man would've beat Hopkins!! Trindad!! Imagine if he would've beat Mayweather!! Where would the man be ranked?? He would've been an even bigger global star...but he failed

    Who knows I just think it's hilarious a Floyd fan would ever say who has DLH beaten.

    He was good for boxing. He came along at the perfect time because Chavez was on the decline. The sport of boxing is always healthier when there is a great (maybe not great but superstar) Mexican boxer. That's why I'm rooting for Canelo.

    He's far from tbe, but didn't duck anyone and provided a lot of entertaining fights. I'll take that over an undefeated, polished record, any day.

    He officially beat Whitaker and Chavez who are at worst top 30 ATGs I don't know what you are talking about.

    So Duran was not extremely talented? :huh He lost more of his biggest fights than he won.
