Both undisputed Lightweight world champions and legends in their own regard. Who wins this, the killing machine and absolute beast that Duran was at 135? Or do the silky skills and defensive wizardry of Whitaker see him winning this one? What are your thoughts?
Duran by ko in 7. He was faster than whit at ltweight tougher greater destroy the body for later stoppage yet win in 7 with 1 punch ko. Duran was a better actual boxer than whi too. Whit never beat even a very good champ in his life. He lost to Ramirez. Undeniable. Not busy enough and on his record as a loss. Duran destroys him like Bizarro just faster. After the fight whit could hook up with leonard go on a cokebinge and each beat their wives.
This is a tough one but I'll go with Whitaker, think his defensive skills would frustrate Duran badly.

You couldn't be more wrong it's not even funny. Destroy Whitaker faster than Bizzaro LOL... He's faster than Whitaker at LW. Whitaker never beat a good champ is his life.... He lost to Ramirez.... BOXING ISN'T YOUR SPORT. LOGOUT AND FIND ANOTHER SPORT TO GET WRONG.
Get yr own ideas stop riding my coattails. You're just repeating what I think. Noone appreciate a copycat
As good as Duran was, Whitaker isn't getting KO'd here. I like Duran more but Pete was great - his skillset was elite and he's at risk of getting knocked down due to the crossing of the feet, but he gets up. Duran will have his own troubles with the sharpness of Whitaker's jab, his underrated inside game, punch output and angles. This match up would not be a blowout.
W tv taker never beat s great fighter in his life. Ramirez chavez Trinidad delahoya. Beat none of themthe. Drjesus bucbanon thompson mamby viruet 1 or 2 all beat the little b c.f. h. Most overrated boxer in history. Mayw be as ts him easy
He beat Ramirez - it is widely acknowledged that he was the better man against Chavez. I find your reasoning disingenuous. Pete was a better LW than Mayweather - name a fighter that beat prime Pete easily. We're talking about top level fighters here, not elite versus contender. Pete was better than Dejesus and Buchanan but hey, Duran KO's him quicker than Viruet.
Name the best guywhitaker beat.and i dont mean you Think He beat. Actual W for win. For instance I think Duran edged Hag but cant call it a win. So cmon whitaker coke stains. Name the best he beat. Prepare to laugh
This is silly. Who I think he beat is who everyone else more or less thinks he beat. I guess you think the verdict in Lewis vs Holyfield I was fair or that Ali beat Norton in the rubbermatch? Mayweather Haugen Ramirez Nelson and then at WW, Buddy McGirt. He may not have all the names on his record, but he beat very good fighters and looks excellent in doing so on film. I am yet to hear ANY reasonable argument that Chavez beat Whitaker let alone deserved a draw as the tape shows different. The fact that you think Duran edged Hagler means that this will be my last reply - your bias is apparent and an honest Duran would admit that he didn't do enough to edge Hagler - not at all. I actually like Duran more than I like Pete, but Pete was a special fighter - not sure why anybody would want to deny this. What does coke have to do with his LW ability? Are we going to discredit Ali for his vile rhetoric at times? SRR for beating up his wife? Tyson for being Tyson? Floyd for beating up his missus? Judge the fighter's ability by who they beat, what they demonstrated in the ring and whether they fought the best available to them. There is nothing in his career to suggest that Duran KOs Pete and Pete would give him angles and workrate that Duran would have to overcome. I don't doubt that he could overcome them, but Pete's chin was proven, even when he was coked out taking bombs from Tito.
Again, boxing isn't your sport, pick a new one man. You're definitely FrankFrankie or whatever his name was.
