What if Roberto Duran stayed retired after No Mas?

Maybe not top 3 all-time but if you don't remember some people suggesting Hamed was one of the best featherweights of all-time back in his day you are probably fairly new to boxing.

And for God's sake, no one is comparing Duran to Hamed

 

And since no-one could possibly compare Duran's achievements up to and including No Mas, to Naz' achievements, how they would've been perceived would be markedly different.

Duran had already achieved greatness, so as much as he would've been criticized he would still have been treated with much more reverence than Hamed.
