​A genuine living legend - get well soon Manos de Piedra

The man fought in 5 different decades, was a gem in the golden era and had more successful returns than Jason himself! He's got this. Heal up quick champ.

[TitoFan]

Top 5 ATG for me easily. Maybe higher.

[NoSavingByTheBell]

Yes me too Titofan. Duran gives me chills. Very very few fighters do that to me. But Duran gives me chills.

How does the joke go; anyone that dies of anything over the age of 65 is called natural causes. Not sure which is worse, if he passes that way age 69 or the way of Swee Pee -crossing the street at 55 or...well Peace to Brother Duran, if it is his time- hope he goes quick and not long and painful.

[Primo Carnera]

Let’s keep positive guys. From what I’ve read, his symptoms are relatively mild, but his lung is a worry.
Covid, Please don’t take this legend. He epitomises Boxing more than any other Boxer I can think of .

He was tough as nails i remember after the 15th round bell rang, the glare he gave Marvin Hagler .

I prefered when Duran slapped the hands of Leonard down at the end of their first fight to let him know that he had won the fight.

Hopefully he pulls through, I guess it's good news that he's not hooked up to a respirator
