    Let's say in November 1979, instead of defending against Leonard, Benitez defends against Duran instead.

    Not sure. I think it's possible Will just had Duran's number. But it's difficult to say, as Duran in 79 was a much better fighter than he was in 83.

    I think Duran takes him in 79

    I'm sure some would pick Montreal Duran over the Hearns that Leonard beat in '81 as well. What y'all have to realize is...Duran would always look good against a fighter that is slugging it out with him...and mediocre again a master boxer.

    Benitez whups his ass sideways.
