    I think Fullmer would be to strong and take a nice solid decision.

    Doooran..Give him a couple rds to get settled in with Gene's style and he starts to take over stepping inside those big swings and going to work. Gene is strong but so was Hagler and Barkley. Barkley possibly the strongest of the 3. Movers and longer fighters bothered Duran at times not brawlers.

    I'll take the best middle version of Duran over the same of Fullmer. In fact, I think he clowns Gene a bit. Unless it is fought in Utah, Duran takes the decision.
