    to me....the whole 'no mas' fight illustrates how easily the public is duped. we have several documentaries where leonard, dundee and others have openly stated their whole plan was to get a duran that was ill-prepared. they weren't interested in fighting a duran that was 100% because leonard knew he couldn't beat that duran. so while duran was a full 10lbs over the limit the night before and clearly dehydrated for the 2nd fight with leonard...all his unknowing fans were cheering him on and accepted the bull**** win and spin cosell and others put on that farce of a fight.

    Tommy's probably trying to figure out how to make money out of Duran's new found popularity, that's what he's doing. :lol:

    i think floyd could have held his own but it would have been hard against any of them atg. hearns like others have said is a terrible match up for floyd simply because of his huge reach and jab coupled with is one punch ko right hand, i just dont see how even floyds defense leans out of the way against such long arms lol

    Isn't there a quote from Roger or Floyd Sr that Duran was a completely different animal?

    Butt hurt *****s, Pretty Boy would be part of the bunch, someone here tell me that he would be going up weight from 140 when you've got Hearns, Hagler, Leonard and even Benitez and Barkley.
