    Some of Durans losses including the first loss to ray leanard are more impressive than Floyd's best win - a undersized marquez who has beaten no one outside of pac an Barrera, and with a style tailor made for Floyd.

    Oscar was washed up past his prime and even in his prime he was overrated and not an all time great. That is not an impressive win.

    Anybody who thinks Mayweather's greater than Duran needs punched in the face really ****ing hard. Duran is a stick on top ten great. Mayweather would be lucky to crack the top 40.

    There is no excuse for Duran's quitjob against Leonard. Duran actually had a ton of excuses, even when he won-see Ray Lampkin. But the fact is that he fought EVERYBODY-and I do mean EVERYBODY-no matter how much naturally bigger they were or what stage his career was at. Can we say the same for Mayweather?

    You can't compare the two, Duran fought all there was to fight in a stacked era, his losses don't mean **** as he fought the best of the best.

    Duran is in most top 10's. Mayweather isn't. Did you really need a thread for this?
