He didnt beat Hearns or Hagler wasn't even close. So how is he mentioned with those 3 brothers. Dam didn't he quit a fight back in the day ✋

He beat a 29 years old , and much bigger, Iran Barkley when Durán was 38. Iran Barkley KO Thomas Hearns Look: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2pWMEgR4N9I.html

@@magnuskrauss3451 you could of sent him the link to the fight on MY channel haha

@@jonelllemelle3372 he beat Leonard which Hearns and Hagler never did. Your arguments a bit flawed. He wasn't the best middleweight, or even the best welterweight but Duran was, and may be, the best lightweight champion there ever was. He was stopping people left, right and centre. Look at his hit list, Koboyashi - former Super Featherweight World Champion from 1967-1971, Ken Buchanan - world lightweight champion from 1970-1972 and was only stopped once in 69 fights (guess by who?), Hector Thompson - 2 x Commonwealth Super Lightweight Champiom 1972-1977, Guts Ishimatsu - World Lightweight Champion, Esteban de Jesus - World Lightweight champion, Saoul Mamby - world super lightweight champion, Davy Moore - world super welterweight champion (who was also undefeated until Duran stopped him), Iran Barkley - World middleweight Champion... Just to name few

Esteban de jesus, pedroza, carlos palomino, cuevaz, srl, moore, barkley

Oh yea & ken buchanan

Phoenix 𝙾𝚙𝚎𝚗 𝙼𝚢 PROFILE its up there previously stated, like mayweather sr said... most people dont know shit about boxing

His win against Leonard was never questionable - Leonard tried to go toe to toe and it was the wrong strategy, he got beat fair and square. Just because Duran lost the re-match when he quit, doesn't diminish his win in the first fight. Plus he beat a whole host of former world or local champions, particularly at lightweight.
