Buchanan was the best Scottish fighter ever. He was a very good fighter and earned the respect US by fighting regularly over there. He was also punched in the balls by Duran.
Bang on. Buchanon was pretty much robbed against Duran. Duran was allowed to foul him all night and was knocked down after the bell with one of the worst low blows ever. The ref wouldnt let him continue. Apart from that he lost a close fight in Japan and a close fight in Spain. Other losses came late in career when past it. Known to be willing to fight anyone anywhere he is definitely an all time great.
