Duran was FAT. Dude couldn't stop eating. He had no choice but to go up in weight. :giggle:
There isn't anyone near Duran's level in the game for the last 15 years and there probably never will be (in the eyes of the elitists). But...
:lol: That's what I like about you Hut...no matter how hard I try you don't fall for the bait.
btw..it may seem like it...but I'm not actually questioning Duran's toughness. :lol: He was tough fo sho. But people are acting like he's Floyd...
So I take it that you have ZERO examples. Cool. That's what I thought. Floyd was in the ring with "tough guys" like Corrales, Castillo, Hatton,...
I'll accept that. But we assume that Duran is so tough that if someone headbutted him flagrantly he would come back and punish him. When did...
Give me an example. ONE! ONE! Prove the manly Duran theory. Like I said sayign you're gonna bang Leonard's wife and having greasy hair and a big...
Is there anyone on this planet that can challenge me?!?! - Zod
Not saying he wasn't in a tough fight. Obviously he's been in tough fights. But show me where he was butted hard, or broken hands, or hurt badly...
:giggle: Give me examples of Duran's ability to rise above adversity and get the win the way Floyd has shown continually Floyd's TOUGHNESS...
Give me some examples of Duran's toughness and triumph over adversity. I remember he had a little adversity against Leonard and Hearns and I...
Nah..Duran would be winning the fight but I'm not sure he could have handled that adversity: being e-honda butted twice. Takes a tough man to...
word. Instead he says "no mas" after that headbutt....
Are you certain about that?
But that's my point. Tubbs would say Tyson as Tyson destroyed Tubbs in 2 rounds and Bowe went the distance (left and death) with him.
And I guess Margarito is a mini Bernard Hopkins?
What would Tony Tubbs say if someone asked him: "Who hit harder, Bowe or Tyson?" What would Holyfield say in response to the same question?
[IMG] It's futile to argue with this type of individual.
:lol: This is your logic: Contemporary fighter >= 80s and/or before fighter = Wrong or stupid. Great logic pal.
Editted...
But he was the best available challenge at 147lbs (Pacquiao already sgned to fight Marquez...Cotto and Marg facing each other). Marg has been...
:lol:
:atu: Hopeless discussing anything with you. You have a "I'll disagree with D&D at all costs" mentality.
Improved heart. He had no quit in him vs Berto and he was receiving the same amount of punishment but from a bigger fighter.
In your obsession to argue with me at all costs you've missed the simple point I was making which is distinct from the point you're now trying to...
Ortiz was GREEN and also unmotivated. Ortiz that fought Berto was obviously a better fighte rthan the one who quit vs Maidana.
I just don't see it. It's possible he may catch up to Berto late...but up until that point Berto will be hitting him 3 punches for every 1.
Why because Maidana beat him? Maybe Duran is a bum compared with Kirkland Laing?
That's cool. But they shoul dboth remain active in the absence of being able to do the deal. And btw the way I RIP Floyd often as well. I'm as...
But what about now? We can't change the past and so must let it go. I think his decision to retire after beating Oscar at 154lbs was a fair one....
