Roberto Duran

[BKM-]

Unsuccesful comeback there Butterfly. Might as well hang 'em up for good.

[El Dominicano]

It wasn't neck and neck dummy.

Does anyone rank Leonard as high as Duran? Well, besides you.

Duran was simply the better fighter. I know exactly why that's so hard for you to accept too, you're such an obvious little identity-conflicted clown, we have three or four just like you on these forums

I rank SRL and Duran the same. People forget that SRL fought Duran toe to toe! Thats was Duran's gift and in the 2nd fight SRL out-boxed him. I agree that Duran wasn't in the best condition but we all know SRL would have beaten if he out-boxed him in the first place. Duran is a offical 140 pounder but was so strong he could fight MW!! SRL is an offical WW and so is Thomas Hearns. Hagler was just plain huge LOL. If I gotta name the best out of the Fab 4 its

1. SRL because he defeated all in the fab 4
2. Roberto Duran because he was a small guy bullying the big people
3. Marvin Hagler
4. Thomas Hearns

butterfly, you made the exact thread in esb

U should be careful what u say.
Ali shouted his moth of plenty and insulted quite a few fighters, and look what happened to him. Karma is a dog?

As for Duran celebrating after his win over Leonard, it wasnt as over the top and embarrassing as Ali jumping around like a fool after Liston took a dive in their rematch.

So after a fight, jumping up and down is worse than cursing at the opponent and pointing to your crotch at the crowd on national tevevision?

Duran was very different away from the ring. Even Ray Leonard said that away from the ring he was the nicest guy you'd ever meet. In the ring was a different story: He was an animal, and he worked himself into a fury everytime he stepped throught those ropes.

Yeah, but when the fight's over you don't have to carry on like Duran did. There's no need to. The fight is over.

"Maricón" is a derogatory term aimed at gays, much like the "F" word, if you will... "Puta" is the most common usage for "*****."

My mistake. I meant to say "puta", not maricon. I knew it was one of those words, I just mixed them up. Sorry.

The bold parts coming from an Ali fan?

I see a pathetic case of sour g****s.

When did Ali call opponents' wives bitches and things of that nature?

When did Duran call his opponents "uncle toms", "monkeys" or the likes...

How is that cool and what Duran did is not? explain please

[butterfly1964]

Exactly and he knows this, he says SRL is just being polite.

For the record I like Leonard, sometimes someone has your number and Duran had his

What Duran did was much worse. If he just called Ray names, then ok, but he crossed over to people that had nothing to do with the fight. That was wrong.
