I am surprised several people here think Roberto Duran was handsome. He looks like an ugly savage to me. As a kid I remember rooting for Sugar Ray Leonard because of how mean and ugly Duran looked.
Another savage looking dude was Victor Rabanales. Mexican bantanweight champ in the early 90's. Sal Sanchez from Boxingfanstics said it best (concerning fighter introduction.) "That motherfucker looked like he was ready to eat somebody."
Everyone keeps on saying Duran is good looking. In his younger days he looked like one of those malnutritioned kids from the Amazon rainforest from those world vision feed a kid for a dollar a day commercials. Lol
There's an Undeniable RUGGEDNESS to Duran's Level of Handsome, as Opposed to the PRETTY BOY Handsomeness of DeLa or King Ry...But He was Still a Relatively Handsome Dude In His Own Right, in REED's Opinion...'47 was the Last Weight Duran Still Looked Somewhat THIN @, & His Looks WANED as He Packed on the Pounds and Aged... REED Thinks the Fact Duran was INDEED an Absolute SAVAGE Detracts from His LOOKS...Handsome Men Aren't "Supposed" to Grab Their NUTSACKS in a Room Full of Women and Children OR Berate the Wife of America's Darling, Sugar Ray Leonard, Leading Up to their 1st Bout... Duran's ANTICS & FEROCITY Precedes His Looks to the Point of MINIMIZING Them... REED
Put it This Way, the Movie "Hands of Stone" Did a DISSERVICE to the Looks of Roberto Duran... REED's Already Acknowledged Cuevas Wasn't Bad OR Good Looking... You and Wiser1878 Have PISS POOR "Taste" When it Comes to LATIN Men... REED
It seems sort of fitting that someone with such an ugly boxing style is also one ugly MF. They were only generous with his wife’s looks.
Yeah, Duran wasnt an ugly dude at all. He was one of the first boxers (maybe one of the first athletes overall) to popularize the scruffy beard look that women love so much nowadays.
Ve Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and thankfully we're not all judges at a 'Latin Men Beauty Contest.' At least we can all agree that in boxing it's the punches that matter not our taste in Latin men.

Monzon, Duran, Hagler, and Tyson would be the four most notable for rugged good looking. Ali, Robinson, Leonard, Calzaghe, and Oscar were pretty boys.
Saoul Mamby's LOOKS Varied...He Could Be Borderline Handsome in One Pic... Or Resemble a CRACKED OUT, Recently INCARCERATED Member of the DeBarge Family, in the Next... REED
