If that's the case and Oscar has a power advantage why do so many people say that Duran would knock out Tito (you did not say that), if Oscar has a power advantage over him a Tito has a big power advantage over Oscar why do people see this, I think Roberto would beat Tito and Oscar but Tito would give him hell.
147 was oscar's best weight class and he was a big puncher that weight and Oscar has a better chin that tito and Duran was never a big puncher above 135 his knockouts came from consistent pressure and wearing his opponents out, plus Tito would give him hell because duran wasn't impossible to hit and given that tito was a murderous puncher at 147 I would have to cite Hearns vs Duran. Duran is one of my favorite fighters and I believe he would beat both Tito and Oscar but on any given day they could beat duran as well.
