Felix Trinidad vs Roberto Duran

[Nile4000]

Felix vs Montreal Duran. 15/147, who wins?

Duran to stop Tito late would be my pick. Either that or a UD.

Roberto Duran was in a different class. Maybe 3 levels above Felix "Tito" Trinidad. Different class. Tito does not belong in that conversation.

Duran knocks out Trinidad at 147, way different level fighter.

[gilgamesh]

I agree with you guys that Duran wins. I don't agree that Tito would be completely out of his depth in the fight. It would be competitive I believe. Especially in the early going when Tito still has his full strength and power, but Duran's greater craft and technical skill eventually breaks him down.

I could easily see this being a wildly entertaining slugfest in the early going, but Duran would probably be smart enough to know that Tito NEEDS it to be one while he doesn't.

Duran from first Leonard fight is probably top 3 fighter ever. That version would beat the crap out of Trinidad. And man, Tito was a beast too
