    Duran deserves a mention (in this thread specifically about Duran).

  7. hiiiiiii again my old friends hehehe, cmon..... lamotta was naturally bigger and stronger than duran, roberto was a great lw, but lamotta wins this one, he had by far better chin, he was bigger,stronger,heavier, he had more hitting power at mw, in a ring or streetfight, lamotta 100%.

    LaMotta would assault him with a lead pipe which he was prone to doing.

    LaMotta was a big MW. Duran was a LW. Maybe this would be close if it was contested in Panama and Duran had a Burro to use as a shield, but otherwise LaMotta beats his ass.

    I like LaMotta in a bloodfest. Duran puts up a good spirited fight but Jake's ultimately bigger and stronger. Not to mention he's just a mean, sado-masochistic SOB.
