I had it 114-113 for Duran. Six rounds to six, with the clutch knockdown giving Roberto the edge. The judge who had it 118-112 needs to go back to judging school. Anway, amazing fight, Duran is the greatest fighter who ever lived. He had everything.

@JCGCINC Height doesn't mean nothing in boxing.Mike Tyson was fighting guys 6'6 and beating them.

@jason60152 You crazy. I am the #1 May fan but Hearns would have beat Floyd at 147lbs. Hearns is 6' and had the wing span of an eagle. The jab and staight rights would have been a disaster for Floyd.

One of my favorite fights! I remember watching this as a five year old and thinking RD was really up against it versus this big, strong, scary looking middleweight. Both fighters showed the heart of true champions. I scored it 114-113 for RD. Three or four of those rounds could have gone either way. I think RD edged out IB thanks to that clutch knockdown. Considering that RD had so many recent letdowns, it was incredible to see him summon the strength for one last hurrah. May have been his best.
