Never watched the old Duran fights. Never seen him so old, slow, and fat. I love how the interviewer is saying all that to him after the fight but Duran is like, "Who cares? I won. Why should I exercise when I don't have to? I like to drink and do drugs." Nice to see that highlight of Duran dumping Vinny Paz on the canvas. I've heard his first bout with Camacho when he was 45 he got robbed but I hadn't heard any robbery rumors about his fights with Vinny. He seems to think he was robbed. Nothing new for a fighter, but it makes me wonder if perhaps he has a case and one of his knockdowns weren't called.
Duran clearly deserved to win against Vinny the first time, rocked him to his core multiple times and landed the only meaningful punches of the bout. Paz's legs were moving a million miles an hour all night as he ran from the geriatric and ancient Duran, even though Paz had perhaps the most blatant PED charged body of all time, blatantly ballooning up in weight after his accident showing all the tell tale bloated signs of steroid abuse.
I remember when this fight aired on TNF. Typical TNF fight with an ATG taking the short money for an easy tuneup and USA network drawing in some viewers with a big name.
