Who would have a better chance against Duran at 147: Spence, Crawford, or Ennis.

Duran also lost to Kirkland Laing, Esteban De Jesus, Benitez and got smashed by Tommy Hearns. He wasn't unbeatable. No fighter is.

 

Tommy Hearns would do that to literally any fighter below MW today; and DeJesus would beat any lightweight in the world. Benitez would also beat anyone at his weight today.

 

Crawford but he would lose as well. Duran is one of the greatest of all time.

 

None of them possess the skills to beat an in shape Duran. None of them even see the final bell. Crawford seems to be the most fragile of the three, but he's also the most skilled. He'd give Duran the best fight, but he's never actually in it.

 

Who are you?
I can't take you seriously with your name. Are you another Alt of IQ?
I am a good poster relative to you both because I can always explain my reasoning. let me help you.
Duran is one of the best ever who had 119 fights and fought several ATG's.
Crawford and Spence are good but have not really got any signature wins because they have not fought each other.....so being unbeaten doesn't mean that much if you'be not really been tested or overcome adversity. The maintaining the 0 is a recent trend that to people who have followed the sport for some time understand it's merely a marketing gimmick as it requires cherry picking and avoiding any real threats.
As far as Ennis goes it's far too early as he's not fought anyone at all. So the onus then is on the above fighters to prove they are even near that level and the only way to do that is for them to fight each other. It really is that simple....
They have to prove they are great and not just good. do you understand the difference?
The assumption then is until they prove themselves they cannot be considered to be on the same level as someone who was very clearly tested against the best in a very strong era.

 

Please log off now.....
Saying Benitez is the same level as Lamont Peterson.....is by far the most spastic thing I'be heard tofay and I've been argueing with someone who thinks the Earth is flat......That's the level of mongoloid you have reached.
Are you just trolling?
Nah just log off before someone gets hurt.

 

Interesting! When these type of threads come up, I always ask, what has the new age fighter done, and who has he beat for me to say he beats so and so ATG. I will apply the same logic to this thread and ask, who have these men beat, that lead you to believe they beat the version of Duran that beat SRL in their 1st fight? How would Duran fair against these guy opposition?
I cannot go against Duran. Now, if Ennis beats both Crawfod and Spence, then we can begin to ask these types of questions, but not about Duran. Ennis would need to beat the best in 2 more divisions before asking about Duran.

 

Um even non prime Duran is better than any win on the above named fighters.
As your making the assertion you tell me what wins are are better than a passed prime Duran who still won titles at higher weights?.....
I'll wait.....

 

BoxingIQ is a crafty troll and all you guys are falling for it

 

Exactly....you can't make a comparison when one of them has not fought anyone of note. I mean they might look decent against weak competition but until they have those signature fights you can't tell. If you've watched the sport for a while you understand this as many fighters look great on the way up. then they fight someone elite and they get clipped. I've lost count of prospects like this that then get battered and then vanish.
