Description: Today I would like to to ask you, who, in your opinion, is the best lightweight boxer in boxing history? Many of you will say “It’s Pernell Whitaker who started his career in this weight category in 1984, and in 1991 he was already a champion in three versions, having had a lot of defenses.” Some of you will mention Aaron Pryor or Henry Armstrong. And the youngest fans will probably say that this boxer is Vasyl Lomachenko. But I would suggest a boxer who had spent 10 years in this weight division. He defended the world title 12 times. His nickname “Hands of Stone” is a reflection of well-earned result of 70 knockouts and 103 victories. Yes friends, the best lightweight boxer in history is Roberto Durán and today we are going to review his career in this division.
