Only if Floyd got on his bike. Duran was a master of fighting on the inside. He knew how and when to foul so as not to get caught, he threw crisp punches and put himself in great positions defensively. You see Maidana winging punches in getting wide with them...Duran would not do that, he might club one or two to shift Floyd's guard in order to open up windows to land other punches.


Floyd's speed would have to be utilized at the fullest in order to compete with Duran and he's not going to do that in a phone booth type fight.
