Roberto Duran believes one victory stands out even more than his triumph over Sugar Ray Leonard.

The Panamanian had a career to be proud of, earning world honors in four categories while also becoming only the second boxer in history to compete across five different decades.

In the 1980s, Duran was part of a cult group with Leonard, Thomas Hearns and Marvin Hagler known collectively as “The Four Kings”, and the legendary quartet competed against each other in epic battles.

Leonard was most successful against the others, being the only man to defeat the other three members, but Duran was the only one of this group able to defeat Leonard, winning a unanimous decision in June 1980.

Despite this success, Duran made it happen revealed on One On One Boxing that he considers his victory over Ken Buchanan an even better achievement.

“The greatest achievement is my first world title against the best and fastest boxer in the world, because Ken Buchanan was much faster than Leonard and took many more shots than him. That first title was the greatest for me.”

Duran met Buchanan in a WBA lightweight title fight in June 1972, securing a 13th-round TKO victory, and at the age of just 21, he won world honors for the first time, although Buchanan’s team believed the fight ended in a low blow.

Buchanan maintained undisputed status for some time and finished his career with 61 victories in 69 fights, and his skill and quality show exactly why Duran values ​​this victory so highly.

This comment stood out because it reflected a broader theme running through the responses.

“I have to beat the next fight first,” one fan wrote.

“AJ is fed up,” wrote another.

“Itauma would humiliate AJ,” predicted a third commenter.

“The man is just talking nonsense, stfu and let’s see then,” wrote another fan.

Others questioned why Joshua had already spoken to Fury, Daniel Dubois, Fabio Wardley, Agit Kabayel, Moses Itauma and Deontay Wilder before joining Prengi.

This reaction shows how rapidly the opinion about the former two-time heavyweight champion has changed. Joshua still talks openly about becoming a three-time world champion and competing in the biggest fights available.

Many fans remain unconvinced.

Joshua lost twice to Oleksandr Usyk and was knocked out by Dubois in his last fight against a top heavyweight. These setbacks led some observers to doubt whether he could still compete with the most threatening fighters in the division.

Skepticism was evident throughout the reaction to Joshua’s list. Instead of debating which fight should come first, many fans focused on whether he could beat any of the opponents he mentioned.

Joshua sees Fury, Dubois, Wardley, Kabayel, Itauma and Wilder as the main options still available to him.

Former WBC cruiserweight world champion Tony Bellew has described what he considers to be the “greatest night” of his impressive 34-fight career; during which he faced players such as Adonis Stevenson, David Haye and Oleksandr Usyk.

Bellew began his professional career at lightweight heavyweight, winning the British and Commonwealth titles at 175 pounds, but losing to both Nathan Cleverly and Adonis Stevenson while fighting for world titles.

The defeat against the Canadian resulted in his move to cruiserweight, where the proud Evertonian defeated Mateusz Masternak in the fight for the EBU European belt, then stopped Ilunga Makabu within three rounds and won the WBC world title at Goodison Park.

Two victories over the legendary David Haye would soon follow, but the third defeat of his career, at the hands of Oleksandr Usyk, turned out to be “The Bomber’s last appearance as a professional, as the iconic Ukrainian stopped Bellew when he had no cards in the eighth round of the game in 2018.

On X, Bellew celebrated the 10th anniversary of his world title win over Makabu, describing the evening as “the greatest night ever”.

The Bellew-Makabu card featured a wealth of Liverpool talent on the evening, with Callum, Paul and Stephen Smith performing alongside David Price, James Metcalf, Tom Farrell, Gerald Carroll and Craig Glover in an incredible display of Liverpool’s talent pool.

Makabu won the WBC world title himself, overtaking Michał Cieślak in the fight for the belt in 2020, and then defended the title twice before losing it to Badou Jacek in 2023.
