Lightweight fight

I go for Duran. Benny was like Duran a legend and a classy boxer but Duran was amazing and you really had to have a very good punch and boxing skills like Estaban De Jesus and catch him on his off day to get the better of him. I think this would not happen and Roberto would have been too strong and too aggressive to keep at bay. Duran by decision.

Two all time legends collide! Great boxing question. Leonard is one of the greatest lightweights ever but I really believe that Roberto was the best! Leonard would do a good job boxing Duran but Duran would use those patented counter right hands and stagger the tough Leonard several times during the fight. About the 13th round I see Duran hurting Leonard and the referee stopping the fight. Great question.

B. Leonard had over 200 fights. He was KO'ed a total of 4 times (in his first and last fight). Duran is arguably the best Light wt of all time. Benny only fought over 10 rds once (how strange). Considering this I take Duran in a 13 rd KO.

OK, Ladies and Gentleman, for the ultimate Lightweight Boxing Championship of the World....Duran vs Leonard,,,,,,
Duran was just to strong as a lightweight..Benny was one of the greats, but Duran at lightweight was a monster who fought to hurt and punish....Duran by 5th round K.O.

Duran KO 3! No one was as great as Duran at 135 lbs. From 1972-1979 Duran was a terror. BL was a great fighter also. But Benny never saw the combination of ferocity and skill Duran had!
