    This would have been an interesting styles match up and a fight that could have happen during the late 1980s. They both beat Iran Barkley in a MW title fight as well.

    Kalambay would win almost every round. Terrible style for Fat Duran.

    Yeah, Kalambay is as bad it gets for middleweight Duran.

    It'd be a similar schooling to Benitez-Duran.

    This fight is winnable for Duran if he has a "best night of his life" fight. Like he did with Leonard, Moore , Barkley and Hagler. Most guys only get one so maybe Duran would get a 5th but I wouldn't bet on it.

    A fat Duran would look like Slow Joe Joyce in there against Kalambay

    I don’t like Duran’s chances at all. Sumbu wins a pretty wide UD
