If that's not overrated i don't know what is
Going into the Leonard rematch, Duran had met Buchanan, DeJesus, Suzuki (Guts Ishimatsu), Mamby, Palomino and Leonard, and had a 7-1 record against World title holders, including avenging the one defeat (against DeJesus) Twice!
This is what i mean, Duran only fought a handful of guys who were actually world caliber (world champions)....and he lost against one of them. The Ken Buchacan fight was also contreversial aswell.
Imo, it's not exactly impressive to have 70 fights and fight only 4 world champions and lose to one of them.
Anyway he fought SRL at WW
