What a ****ing *******. At least come with a half decent argument, and not this **** Hearns is definitely 3x better then any opponent Manny ever faced and the point is at least Duran moved up that far, Manny has yet to do that so shut the **** up about this ****
From 147 and over, Duran was VERY INCONSISTENT and unmotivated. He often came to training camp weighting 200+ lbs, and his camps overal were very poor. No strategy, bad nutrition and obsolete training methods. He could still make great achievements because he was A NATURAL. The man was born to fight and loved to fight. It´s just that many times he wasn´t in his best phisical and/or mental shape. The key with the 147-160 Duran was MOTIVATION. He was motivated against Moore, Hagler and Barkley. The only Duran that DESTROYS Pacquiao is the one that faced Leonard in Montreal. Pac UD or late TKO against any other version of Duran at 147.
I'm not going to get into the name calling like other posters, but have you actually seen Duran fight? It's a serious question, because Duran is about as far away from a small Margarito as you can imagine..he's in a whole different league in terms of his abilities and if anything he's a better version of Pac himself. And I know that may be hard to fathom but the best way to agree or disagee with my comments is to actually watch his fights, particularly against Leonard, and Moore.
He may be a bad match up, which I disagree with, but he's no Margarito, so it really makes we wonder where the hell that comment came from. That's really out in left field no matter how you spin it. And I personally think Duran's style would give Pac more trouble than Pryors because Duran would bring more of an inside game and he would be throwing straighter punches and would use his superior defensive to avoid much of what Pac threw and he'd be firing back a split second later, with power. That's a tough combination to beat and it's why he beat Leonard, who to be is a significantly better welterweight than Pac will ever be. So an interesting question is what would Pac do to win that Leonard couldn't do?
Duran cant make 147 anymore!!! How about bring me Floyd??? If u have a time machine, give me the young duran so we can find out!!! If u cant, just lend Floyd some balls!!
you are a noob so I won't bash you. Watch some Duran's fights build your knowledge then you can come to the forum and say that Pac will beat Duran for such or such reason. But don't compare Duran to Margo it's embarrassing for you
at all these 'Pac lasts 4 rounds, tops' posts holy crap.... Beyond delusional to think Duran treats an ATG himself in Pac, with footspeed, handspeed, sick combos, very good power, very good chin, underrated defence now when he wants one (people confuse pac WANTING a slugfest with Pac NEEDING a slugfest, he could box the **** out of half the guys he beats up if he wanted to, he goes toe to toe and bangs with these bigger fighters because hes a warrior, not because hes limited) top stamina, high workrate, underrated toughness, and as much heart as any fighter to lace them up, which is overlooked because its rare for an elite fighter to be such a blood and guts warrior. Yet Pac is going to get abused like he is some second rate bum against a man close to him in size and not make it to even the halfway mark? right. This fight is too close for me to say with any conviction who beats the other, it might come down to whos night it is..... But ill say one thing, whoever wins this is going to be doing so through a mask of blood and will win it in the championship rounds.
I just knocked Pac the **** out in "Fight Night" & guess who I was using?, That's right. Roberto Duran. So there it's settled.
