Roberto Duran (Barkley fight) vs Canelo at 168

[gilgamesh]

With Crawford on the verge of possibly being only the 2nd man in history to have won titles at Lightweight and beyond 160.

How do we think the original man who accomplished this feat would do if he had to face Canelo that night instead of Barkley.

[goose 5]

Canelo wins easily., Canelo rehydrates and is like a tank. Duran was 156 and change on a same day weigh-in for the Barkley fight. Canelo is just plain better than Barkley and he would be a very bad style for an aging and much smaller Duran.
