Roberto Duran and Esteban DeJesus 2
The main reason that I liked this fight after Duran lost a nontitle fight to DeJesus is that Duran the champ did not duck him and the challenger was one of the most skillfull lightweights of the Duran era. He knocked Duran down in the first round in both fights. Besides a punch to match the champ he had skills that made him the victor in the previous fight. Duran was not only in excellent shape but he evolved and showed skills. He out boxed and later outpunched DeJesus displaying movement and skill and speed along with giving a boxing clinic to the challenger. It was electric that day in Panama Duran by KO and there was two knockdowns scored by him.

Watched that fight on ESPN and Duran was just perpetual motion and on fire. Absolute vicious fighter who wanted to destroy DeJesus. Really good fight.
