Duran Vs Chavez at lightweight in their primes who would win?

[The Wind]

As much as I like Chavez, this really shouldn't be up for debate.

Chavez is an all time great, but Duran is an all time LEGEND and is the Greatest Lightweight ever and one of the best P4P ever.

Duran by late KO. (Round 11 or 14)

I agree with this, except I don't think Duran would score a KO, I think he wins by clear decision.

Duran decision

[HattonTheHammer]

If we are talking 12 rounds then id probably go for duran to win 8 rounds to 4 with a couple of knockdowns thrown in.

If its 15 then duran stops him late on with a vicious flurry.

The guy was like a fucking steam train once he got going!!

Both had excellent choins, huige hearts and power in spades.

The difference between the two?

Duran's better ringcraft and underrated defense.

Hey man Duran in LW Div. was a Devastator...........Thats why he got the name of " Mano de Piedra "...............

[El Kabong]

Duran wide points margin.....Chavez could take punishment but no one really understands what a great BOXER Duran was, he could fight on the inside and hit someone without getting hit in return and Chavez was more of a take a couple punches to land a couple punches style fighter and that wouldn't suit fighting against Duran
