    If God ascked you who to bring back in his prime and fight today,Ali or Duran ?
    Who woul be? and why?


    i'd choose Duran,becasue i'd like to see him fight Margo, Cotto, Oscar or Mayweather. Heavy Weight is too weak to bring Ali back, he'd have probably 10 staight KO wins.

    Duran, definitely. Both would massacre their own divisions but Duran is my favourite fighter of all time and to see him beat the living **** out of Gayweather and the rest would be ****ing brilliant.

    Duran. Better competition. I'd much rather see Duran chew through Pacquiao, Marquez, Campbell, Diaz, Valero, Hatton, Cotto and Margarito than see Ali outbox the Klitschkos and David Haye.

    I loved Ali, but I don't think anyone ever created the electricity that Duran did. Even when he was a fat 168 pounder fighting glorified club fighters like Pazienza , Roberto glowed with excitment and menace.

    ofcourse it would be ali. for the simple fact that the average sports fan only see two divisions in boxing 1 the heavyweights and 2 everybody else. we need a heavyweight superstar to bring boxing back to the glory days

    Ali changed the world not just boxing. Duran was a force of nature, in his prime he was unbeatable. I think they were both respectivly in two of the best era's to ever exist in boxing!! although for me its .... DURAN DURAN DURAN!!

    I would definantly bring Duran back so I could watch Mayweather turn his face into hamburger meat.

    The lightweight and welterweight divisions are exciting enough, the heavyweights on the other hand...:deal

    the lightweight and welterweight division today already has its stars.

    I voted Ali. We need a heavyweight champ!!!!
