Duran via mid rds stoppage
@Master Teacher pull up
Duran at 135 was a machine...The man to this day is hands down the best pressure fighter to ever lace up at 135...Had all the physical tools to beat Floyd...speed, power in both hands, endurance with the ability to cut the ring off and effectively apply pressure...
Floyd barely survived Castillo who was a poor Mexican mans Duran (no disrespect to Castillo just keeping it 100)...Granted Floyd had a shoulder issue in the first fight but even in the second fight it wasn't easy...Castillo stayed in his chest which is the only way to beat Floyd and nobody did that better than Duran...
And because I know somebody going to bring up Packeyow...Packeyow never was a good pressure fighter...Big part of being a good lressure fighter is cutting off the fukking ring...Following dudes around the ring which is what Packeyow does is NOT effective pressure...
Packeyow never learned how to cut off the ring and preferred his opponents to come to him which is why he NEVER stood a chance against Floyd...Floyd doesn't come to you, you have to get in his chest and pound him like Castillo and Maidana did...
All that said this would have been a very close fight...When I confronted with a even fight like this I always bet on black excellence so obviously I pick Floyd but anyone thinking this is less than a 50/50 fight is dead wrong...
Lmao Floyd beat Castillo with one arm, and easily beat him in the remath.
You wana lose that fight to say Robert duran could beat Floyd
ROBERTO DURAN LOST AT LIGHTWEIGHT
to fighter than Esteban De Jesus lmao, even though beat him twice so there is your logic
A loss means nothing to you, but a close fight that's only close the imagination of idiots, does.
This is the type of revisionist history I'm talking about.
Not fight is easy, I never sad he would beat Duran easy, but he would be him, and it would be a clear decisive victory
