    The Versions that fought Barkley.

    Duran seemed to have handled Benn in sparring and was undoubtedly far more skilled. Benn at 160 hit as hard as Hearns' though...and Duran was aging at the time.

    Would have been dynamite while it lasted and who knows, it could have even gone the distance.

    What say you?

    IF Duran could survive the early onslaught he could break Benn down

    but that is a HUGE if
