Sugar Ray Robinson lost 19 times! HE SUCKS!!! ...take it easy guys, I'm kidding. You know some assclown is gonna say that!
someone has to explain to me why Duran is always so highly rated. I dont know cause i've only see the brawl in montreal.
Dominated at lightweight winning every title fight, defeated Sugar Ray Leonard in his prime, won titles at light middleweight and middleweight well past his best days. His longevity was amazing. Duran fought in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s. Holds some very good wins too: Sugar Ray Leonard Esteban De Jesus x 2 Ken Buchanan Carlos Palomino Pipino Cuevas Iran Barkley Davey Moore Ernesto Marcel Saoul Mamby Jorge Fernando Castro Hiroshi Kobayashi Guts Ishimatsu Ray Lampkin Lou Bizzarro Edwin Viruet x 2 Adolfo Viruet Jimmy Robertson Hector Thompson Jimmy Heair Watching him as a fighter (during his prime), he was the complete package. He had great technical skills, ferocity, speed, head movement, great defense, body punching, punch variety, feints, toughness, chin, and heart. He could fight on the inside and the outside. He was an animal, but a controlled one.
By the way, Eder Jofre was elected in 2002 by The Ring Magazine the 9th best fighter of the world of the last 50 years.
