nice find acb, i did'nt know this was on youtube. just put the link up for us though and it should be cool. rules say no posting of full fight vids.
This is an awesome fight. I bought it about a year ago with my Hagler DVD collection and wasn't let down one bit. Kobayashi was no pushover either
Welcome guys, I didn't know this was here, its good looking footage for b/w. Ok its just the link now, my bad.
Saw it a while back, it is the one where Duran finishes him off with a 4 piece straight combination on Kobayashi against the ropes. Kobayashi was a very, very good fighter himself, albeit more at Featherweight. Very slick, skilled boxer with good finishing ability and stamina, and the always prideful Japanese heart. Duran beat another top notch, uber-slick Featherweight fighter in Ernesto Marcel, a very underrated win as well on his resume. Very capable fighters the both of them, Marcel even handily outboxing a young Alexis Arguello. Knowing this background info just makes you further appreciate Duran's performances and skills at this time in his career.
