![]() Do I still love watching Duran on YouTube? Of course I do. Did Duran still quit against Leonard? Absolutely he did. I personally think Ray Robinson was the GOAT but who cares? Boxing is an end of the world sport and the truth is any of the fighters we all know and love and respect in here are pretty great just for getting in that god damn ring over and over and fighting with heart. I'm not even a die hard Ray Leonard fan (though I loved watching him in his prime) but let's face it, Ray already fought Duran's kind of fight against him in Montreal and lost the decision so of course he wasn't going to come out and fight that same fight again, why would he? As for who the GOAT is Jesus fucking Christ I don't know partner, that whole debate is so subjective and personal so you know what? Fine, Duran's the GOAT if that's who you like. Listen, I already told you I'm a long time (as in decades and decades) fan of Manos De Piedra Ok? I love the guy but quitting is quitting and like I said the Panamanian people never forgave Duran for that. Cause clearly, if you dont rate duran even for contention. So tell us who you think is the 'best 5 fighters of all time'. ![]() And for you to say he is not even in 'contention', is absurd. Many top pundits claim he is the best ever. He is also the second boxer to have competed over a span of five decadesīest of all time will always be subjective.īut for you to sit here and not even consider Duran, when EVERYONE who knows ANYTHING about Boxing, clearly does. Titles at lightweight, welterweight, light middleweight, and middleweight as well as reigns as the undisputed and lineal lightweight champion, and the lineal welterweight champion. I have no proof that Duran was desperate to end the fight so he could take a shit, but that is what I think probably happened.ĭo you have ANY IDEA how many weight classes he founght in and dominated them all? You realise that Duran came UP FROM LIGHTWEIGHT, to be the first to beat sugar ray? You realise he was the samller boxer, fighting UP in divisions? You realise he fought sugar ray at his weight of welterweight? My ex-trainer (he died in 1997), told me he literally was about to shit his trunks if the fight went much longer. He KO'd his opponent in the third round, and rushed out of the ring to the bathroom. ![]() Fact: My old boxing trainer, Ulysses Jiminez, told me that he had Diarrhea before one of his fights. I don't think a man as proud as Duran would ever admit to something as embarrassing as that. Result: Duran was having severe stomach issues, and he needed to get the fuck out of that ring as quickly as possible, and head to the nearest toilet to take a shit. Carlos Eleta, Duran's manager, said Duran took Diuretics three days before the fight, and Duran ate too much after the morning weigh in. Duran had to get down from 183 pounds to 147 in a short time.
