    You can compare Mayweather to Loenard, maybe, but JLC is nowhere near the class of Duran.

    And of the two Leonard-Duran fights, the first one is the one that counts more, just like Ali-Frazier I counts more than the others.
    Duran's is mostly based on his time at Lightweight where many, including myself, consider him the best Lightweight ever. Your point is well taken though. Very few fighters in history are in the class of Duran. As much as I like Castillo he isn't in that class; neither is Mayweather for that matter. Maybe Floyd will be when all is said and done but I think that kind of talk about him is WAY premature at this time.

Leonrd deserves alot of credit for that. 2nd fight Leonrd did what he was suppose to do! What every SRL fan wanted him to do! He boxed. With his good foot work he manage to move around so freely as he whoped on Duran. Duran felt direspected and Duran fans felt direspected. I believe there should have been a 3rd fight atleast

      See what happen between Duran and Leonrd is the same as in what happen between Mayweather and JLC. JLC won the first fight because Mayweather gave him his in fight. In fight as in thats JLC favorite way to go against his oponents. JLC did a good job but was given a lost when I will admit as a PBF fan THAT IT Should HAVE BEEN A WIN. Then in the 2nd fight Mayweather boxed. See where I'm getting at here? I am not saying SRL is better then Duran Nor am I saying that Duran is better then SRL. They are both GREAT LEGENDS. But what I am trying to say is that u can never say whos better then who between the two.
      i see what your doing with the comparison
      but castillo didnt even win the first fight with mayweather
      it was indeed a close fight but he didnt win

      does anyone have the first fight between duran and leonard?

        There was a third fight and it was VERY forgettable.
