    On his best night, Duran beats them all

    On a bad night, Duran loses to them all.

    Duran went and lost a very close decision to best middleweight of all time. If he was able to win the last round, he was to beat Hagler. It is also the first match to go to decision for Hagler after 7 consecutive defenses. A decent Duran wipes them all. A more realistic question would be to ask who would be able to go to distance against Duran.
