    mcgrain did a pretty job not too long back but i'll give it a shot

    Overrated at middle, good at welter but struggled mightily with a lazy gavilan in both fights, likely losing the first. he flat out lost to a one dimensional slugger in lamotta and his welterweight career is aided by a lack of footage, meaning we can't pick out his obvious technical flaws. avoided charley burley and lloyd marshall for years, knowing full well that would have destroyed him. dominated by crude brawlers like basillio and fullmer, showing glaring weakness to pressure fighters. he was always slightly chinny, even being dropped by a junior middle in graziano. ended career losing to mediocre fighters like joey archer and paul pender. lost 19 times in total, to a wide variety of fighters, showing he had trouble with all styles.

    Duran:

    - No sportsmanship, no dignity, no self respect. Was discraceful during the Buchanan fight, shoving him and hitting after the bell like a thug even though he was winning the fight easily, then intentionally low blowing him when the punches coming back fanially had substance. Spitting on Leonard after a hard fought 12 round fight and attacking him. Believing his own overrated hype poisoned himself with booze and drugs like a low life crackfiend and gorged himself on fajitas becomin a fat greedy ******* too lazy to train. Quit like a spoilt little selfish ***** ***** when Leonard was humiliating him. He quit in the middle of a fight...not a stoppage, not his corner, not hurt..just gutless and outclassed and broken down emotionally, was too weak of a person to face his superior.

    - Excuses. Convenienty didn't train x1,000. Had stomach cramps...HAHAHA. Past his prime, past his prime, past his prime. He is only the King of excuses and the King of human clegnuts and the King of testicular leeches.

    - Incredibly overrated. Beat absolutely nobody of ATG relevance at LW barring De Jesus, who beat Duran first and lost twice to Duran beyond his prime, but nobody seems to mention that, because only Duran is allowed that card. Had one great night against Leonard in a close fight, that is completely blown out of proportion in terms of domination. Then he fought Leonard again, the man he spat on...and he quit like a little *****. Is credited with Palomino as another spectacular win! ignoring the fact that Palomino was at the very end of his actual career and far boeyond his prime, because only Duran is allowed that card. Then he was serverly outclass by Benitez and beaten by the greatest fighter of all time Kirkland Laing. He is then credited out of proportion for his 3rd and final quality named victory on his resume, Cuevas, who was also beyond his prime years, but again only Duran is allowed that card. Then he was completely outclassed by Hagler, though Duran fans will tell you it couldve gone either way, and they pretty much class it as a win because of the "impossible odds and circumstances" Duran faced that no one ever has before. And then he was obliterated by Hearns, he looked absolutely terrified against a guy he couldnt intimidate. And like a true bully he froze up and was anniahlated. Then he came up against Barkley and won SD, and this victory is also blown completely out of proportion. Outclassed by Benitez, Leonard twice, quit like a *****.

    And thats Duran, only a single ATG quality win. Loses every other ATG quality fight he was in(Hearns, LeonardII+III, Hagler, Benitez).

    Muhammad Ali:

    Archie Moore was a thousand years old. Sonny Liston was much older than his stated age, rumors abound of him throwing their fights, plus he didn't train hard for them either. Ali's first title reign consisted of bullet-riddled Liston leftovers who wear disguises after losing big fights.

    He only beat Joe Frazier after Foreman beat Frazier around like a ragdoll. Ken Norton arguably won all 3 matches. He was losing through 10 rounds against Ron Lyle, who earned the title shot by losing to Jimmy Young (who really beat Ali). Foreman fought the dumbest fight ever. Earnie Shavers got robbed. Leon Spinks was an embryo and beat Ali.

    Can you picture the outrage nowadays if an athlete said in a Playboy interview that Muslims who marry non-Muslims should be killed? Also, the way he treated Frazier was cruel.

    Robinson: Not nearly as elusive as he's made out to be once examined on film. Made of point of not fighting some of the more dangerous fighters at welterweight and middleweight (Burley, Holman Williams, etc.) Had a tendency to pad his record by facing opponents that he had already defeated quite soundly. Was decked by some of the lesser fighters that he faced, and indeed would fight to the level of his opposition from time to time.
