Roberto Duran vs Mayweather

PBF is a bad match up for Duran he doesn't deal well with movement and defense. PBF would frustrate the hell outta Duran and win by decision.

 

That's pretty much what I was going to write.

 

SRL also fought the wrong fight against Duran in the first fight in the second fight he fought smart, he moved and boxed more didn't stand in front of Duran and exchange as much and it frustrated Duran who quit. PBF could do the same because he won't stand in front of Duran either he would stick and move on him all night long and probably make him quit to. PBF has a higher ring IQ than SRL better counter puncher and better defensive fighter that would help him defeat Duran.

 

Pea Whitaker would have given Duran the business at LW he was a stylistic nightmare for Duran.:deal Hell DeJesus beat him at LW so he can be beat.

 

it would be an other ``NO MAS``:good

 

Indeed he did,Duran did avenge the loss a couple of times. DeJesus was an excellent fighter too. Prime for prime tho I would fancy Duran at LW, just my 2 cents.

Whittaker is a nightmare for most top drawer fighters, would have been a great fight.

 

Duran. Floyd dont hav the power to keep duran off him. Duran wins at any weight prime for prime

 

floyd loses sanity and checks in to mental hospital until duran retires.

 

This exactly.

 

Floyd has not fought anyone on the level of a Duran.. nor will he ever fight anyone on the same level as a Duran. Not worth comparing.

 

When's the last time you say someone just walk right through PBF's power? It doesn't happen and Duran won't do it either. Getting hit with flush shots and clean counters hurts.

 

Floyd. People are comparing a 37 year old to a young in his prime ATG.

Floyd at 130 or 135, makes Duran look like a tool, thats when he was still aggressive.

Floyd at 147? I dont know honestly. He's a lot more defensive now. and has lost some pop on the way up.

 

As pointed out, it depends on the weight.

Duran was inconsistent and more vulnerable above LW. He still could take Mayweather at WW, if he showed up at his absolute best like in "The Great Brawl" he's got a shot.

Leonard was 5'10" with 74" and carried enough power to knock out a damn LHW Champion. Mayweather may not have the size, speed, and snap to do what Leonard did at WW against a less than motivated Duran.
