I'm not saying De Jesus or Viruet were slouches, but they weren't JCC quality. Duran fought a lot of bums in his LW run as well, over in Panama and even over in the States. There are a lot of very unmemorable names on that LW resume (as is the case for JCC too).

Style vs style it's a very close match up. Duran was great but I just don't think he was that good to where he would dominate JCC. I'm not doubting that Duran could win, but JCC is a tough match for anyone at that weight.
