Only fighters to give him trouble:

Meldrick Taylor
LWW
Taylor was a 140 pound fighter, not a 135 one, even though he started his career there.
Mosley and Chavez lose a UD to Duran. Against Whitaker I slightly favor Duran, but it will be close.
Remember folks, Duran at 135 has speed, power, chin, and endless stamina, there's a reason why he's considered to be a top 2 lightweight of all time.
Look man, I'm diggin deep here... I know (and I think you do too) no one beats Duran at LW. So I've gotta pick guys that were monsters at higher weights to compare him to. He's my favorite, and he's the best. None of those fighters made careers at LW.
