    Hearns was better, he would have destroyed Duran at welter too, Tommy is really underrated.

    :) Duran is a consensus top 5 pound for pound fighter in history,,,,Hearns ain't nowhere near him.

    Only idiots act like that they're monumental fights in Durán's career.

    How about reading the article?

    Well if you rank him in the top 50 then if somebody is not mentally ******ed(i am not) then can imagine that Duran is ranked between the 40 and 50 place in your list and it is a joke

    No... My top 10 flyweights are:
    #1. Jimmy Wilde
    #2. Miguel Canto
    #3. Pancho Villa
    #4. Midget Wolgast
    #5. Fidel LaBarba
    #6. Benny Lynch
    #7. Frankie Genaro
    #8. Pascual Perez
    #9. Newsboy Brown
    #10. Izzy Schwartz

    **** your experience, pal. Imagine having Maske, Daruisz and Tiger as top 10 LHWs...

    I didn't... And I don't know. Also, Pascual is definitely top 10.

    Why do you try and drastically derail my article threads? You did it to my last one too.

    H2H Hearns is better, he would have easily stopped Duran at welter.

    I mean, I didn't. I have the lists myself. I had Wilde at #1, Villa at #2, Canto at #3.

    I tend to not talk about fighters I haven't seen, or at least don't know about. There's no point at all. Why do you need to watch

    Who gives a ****? I know how Maske's and Mikalshevski's reigns were perceived and how unworthy of being a top 10 LHW they were.
