Kinda reminds me Sugar Ray Leonard vs Roberto Duran. After the "No mas" in fight II.
Roberto Duran vowed to redeem himself winning four more world titles. He got a ruff start but after signing a contract with Bob Arum he got a title shot at Pipino Cuevas, knocking out Cuevas in just the fourth round.
In November 1983, Durán fought “Marvelous” Marvin Hagler, the great middleweight champion. Durán survived 15 rounds with Hagler, at the time, the only fighter to do so. Durán was ahead on the scorecards after 12 rounds, but Hagler prevailed in the last three, winning the contest.
in June 1986 he fought WBA light middleweight champion Davey Moore. By the fourth round, Durán said he knew Moore couldn’t hurt him, so he relentlessly stalked the champion, eventually knocking him down with a thunderous right hand in the seventh round and the fight was stopped in the eighth, as Moore could no longer continue.
Durán was always a crowd pleaser and a hero to Latinos throughout the world, and the infamous “No Mas Debacle,” as the great announcer Howard Cosell dubbed it, became a distant memory.
In 1989, Durán fought Iran "The Blade" Barkley, the WBC middleweight champion. He knocked down Barkley in the eleventh round and then won a close decision. Durán was 37 at the time, it is considered one of the highest achievements of his career. Ring ****zine named him fighter of the year.
in his forties, Durán continued fighting as a middleweight throughout the 1990s. Against many opponents, he looked very impressive, and he managed to win the NBA super middleweight title in 2000, beating Pat Lawlor..
If you ever get a chance to see the ESPN "No Mas" Documentary Sugar Ray seems troubled years later, where has Duran has put it astern.
Manny Pacquiao has put Mayweather in his rear view mirror long ago. But Manny keeps wining.Last edited by TJ highway; 10-31-2019, 04:50 PM.

jmm nearly killed him, they say marquez made manny fall on a perfect punch.. jim lamply called it before it happened,but pac is their god..
the filipinos need a new great champ, and they need to move on. many were not boxing fans, until pac. in my family, my sisters, aunts and uncles, know boxing..
i am bringing my daughter to japan, but she wants to stay in makati, the pinoy effect..
i guess all people in some way or another stick to the culture they were born into.
i am not a canelo fan, but i think he might be tested to his limit.. we both speak spanish, and i do not need translation when he gives interviews. he is all in.
