Roberto Duran V PBF? who wins at 147lbs

PBF isn't as BIG as SRL. He also isn't as fast. SRL hit hard enough to gain respect of Duran while boxing. PBF does not. And SRL was barely ahead when Duran quit.

 

lol..why it gotta be like dat?

 

Not as fast?? Man they are jst as fast man....i give you power but he wont need it like SRL didnt need it...Duran ATE all his punches and just kept comming forward not to find a target man...floyd would do the same....and what are you talking about..scorecards were nowhere near close!:nono

 

:good

 

Duran was a great defensive fighter

The scorecards were 68-66 x 2 and 67-66 for Leonard. People don't remember that Duran, even after losing tons of weight in a short amount of time, was still in the fight.

Floyd is no Ray Leonard

 

this is a possibility....never said Floyd out right beats this guy...not sure if Floyd will beat Duran BUT....i will not say he just outright outclasses PBF...at some point you people will recognize PBF's art and realize just cause they are ATG's they too can be beat by todays stars...simple as that

 

lol..your right looked at wrong scorecard....still though...if he gets that frustrated to quit and Sugar actually fights...we all know PBF would have nothing to do with standing and throwing combos like SRL he would pot shot him all night man...but i acknowledge Durans will and skill as well but i just think Floyd gives him trouble just as much as Duran can gice him trouble.

 

PBF is not in that class of speed IMO. And SRL was up by 2 points on 2 cards and a single point on a 3rd card. That is called CLOSE.

Duran never ate peoples punches....have you ever seen Duran?

 

Duran would definatley beat mayweather. At 147 mayweather hasn't been very impressive at all his wins over Mitchell, Judah, and Baldomir weren't great performances to say the least. Duran's win over Ray Leonard in Montreal is as good a win as you can get and his performance against Carlos Palomino was awesome as well. Duran would was a complete prize fighter. His offense was awesome he could mix his attack from head to body amazingly also his defense was great too he was no crude heavy handed banger. He was a master at slipping shots and getting inside and forcing the fight. Mayweather won't be able to calmy box at his pace against Duran as duran would force the fight too mayweather. I don't think Mayweather can handle Duran and would lose by a stoppage. Also don't bring up his fight in New Orleans against Ray Leonard when discussing fantasy fights you take the best version of the fighter not the worst. If you take motivated best version of Duran and i believe Duran beats Mayweather i would bet my house on it.

 

It's not that. I think PBF is one of "the Greats", though not nearly as high as he thinks he is.

But PBF is not a great 147lb fighter. His best weight class looks to have been 130, where you will find that he matches up quite well with ATG's.
