Roberto Duran vs Julio Cesar Chavez at lightweight

iron chinned monsters go at it.

 

Duran, way to much skill.

 

yeah, duran would take this more power at that weight and more skill.

 

Chavez precision punching,body attack and underrated counterpunching catches Duran flush too many times, Chavez close split Dec

 

Duran skillz and better defense would carry him to a clear points win.

 

Would be a great fight. I lean towards Duran but not by much. Duran was just such a beast at lightweight.

 

Duran at Lightweight was just unbelievable.

The only problem is that Duran was noticeably better in all three areas mentioned above even though JCC had some really impressive victories over Chapo and Ramirez at 135. Manos by wide UD.

 

Duran was simply a better fighter,it would be a war,id go for duran to win on points in a close but clear decision..

 

Duran all the way baby!

 

Wow...better question- would someone die?

 

I don't know who takes this one. Both looked unbeatable at 135. If I had to choose, I think I'll pick Chavez just because he was never actually TKO'd in his prime. But then again, Duran was TKO'd by all time greats. This one is too hard to choose.

 

What kind of reason to pick a winner is that?

Chavez cause he was never koed in his prime.

How does that make Chavez the better fighter?

BTW Guess what Duran was also never koed in him prime which was at 135.

Both have ATG chins nobody would get stopped in this fight.

Duran would win cause he was more skilled had the better defense and was overall the better fighter.

This would be Duran by clear but competitive decision over the game and also great Chavez.
