Roberto Duran vs. Henry Armstrong who wins?

Question

The fight is at lightweight.

Answer 1

Let me tell you why this bout would not be a walk over for Duran.
Armstrong - nickname homicide hank - ko 66% - held 3 titles at once- ko'ed twice- TF 182
Duran - nickname hands of stone - KO 63% - won titles in 4 div - ko'ed 4 times TF - 119

Armstrong had more fights (more experience). Duran beat more good fighters. Duran by a decision in a close bout.

Answer 2

That would have been a great fight. Henry Armstrong was a very good lightweight, he defended the welterweight championship about 18 times.

They were both aggressive, and were always moving forward, unloading bombs, physically out muscling their opponent. So none of them would have taken a backward step. I still go for Duran but it would have been too close to call.

Answer 3

Once again two legendary champs! Hands of Stone vs Homicide Hank! I really don't think that anyone could have beaten Duran at lightweight at his best though Henry was a whirlwind that constanly threw punches! I believe in a non stop action fight with Duran having a better defense and harder punch, he wears Henry down and knocks him out in the 10th round. Great question!

Answer 4

Manos de Piedra at lightweight was like a young Tyson in the heavyweight decision. Duran would knock Armstrong out despite the fact that Armstrong was a good fighter too.

Answer 5
