i cringe when you mention anything being matched in accomplishment Duran beat 2 hall of fame fighter in Ken Buchanan and the legendary Sugar Ray who did Broner beat again? good lord anyhow...Duran TKO8 because that dick stands too flat footed for me
I don't think it matters much in this case. They could fight on the head of a pin, a whole football field, in a box with a fox, in a boat with a goat, in a house with a mouse...and Broner's still getting beaten up.
The fight would be similar as how the Monroe Brooks fight played out, a talented jr. welterweight contender, did against Duran. Monroe made it into the eighth round of a bruising battle with Duran, and I think Broner would as well. Duran did not look that hot all of the time at welterweight, against Zeffie Gonzales, for instance. Duran wins by 8th round KO.
Nobody looks good every time out, and if a guy like Broner was around during Duran's peak you can be sure he'd want to do a number on Adrien.
Duran wins, but he gets hit plenty in return in this one, and Duran only looked good twice at 147 versus Palomino and Leonard 1, not the other half dozen or so fights he had at that weight. Take a look at the Jimmy Heair fight. Duran hit him with everything and the kitchen sink and Heair didn't go anywhere as Roberto's power was diminished big time at 147. Duran pulls out a stoppage in a brutal fight with body punching.
man....I come back for a visit to make some comments and everyone relates to Arturo Gatti? Gatti was a good fighter and now he is dead lets move on...LOL
This. Duran was capable of off-nights depending on the level/status of his opponent. But I can't imagine him wanting to do anything than kick the shit out of Broner.
