    Duran did nothing but outpoint him by a point or two, outside his best weight class at that.

    Hardly anything to hold against him.

    In fact, that fight is further evidence of just how great Marcel was.

    No one did better in 70 fights on Duran with the exception of DeJesus who faced an uninspired version...

    I agree 100%. I had it very close and if it had been allowed to end naturally I would've had it 6-4 Duran.

    Their rivalry is really underappreciated. I could OF had something like that with Seamus, but he let it go.

    Will have to go back to Marcel-Duran fight if I have it. If not then Dejesus III will do despite the quality. Haven't watched an old fight in a while.

    General has mostly hopeless people as far as them being taken serious as boxing posters and instead they're nuthuggers and very uninformed for the almost all part.

    Forgot you did the Hernandez and Norris ones I think I have a few posts in them. Its up to you whether you want to continue this series or not but I support you regardless. Yes homo:hey jk lol
