40th anniversary of Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Roberto Duran II<\/strong><\/h2>\n

November 25, 1980<\/em><\/p>\n

Five months before, Duran managed to defeat Leonard for the very first time at the height of Ray`s career, \u00a0with a brilliant, bulldozing, fiery and irresistible performance of a lifetime. It was beyond pulsating!<\/p>\n

However, this time around, Ray Leonard would arrive completely different, keenly focused and armed with the ideal game plan, percolating \u00a0disciplined guile plus cunning, to re-conquer the WBC welterweight crown.<\/p>\n

Rather than standing toe to toe and brawling, at which Roberto was the acknowledged maestro, Ray used his supreme boxing skill set, \u00a0to bamboozle, needle, infuriate and ultimately frustrate: \u201cThe Charge of The Light Brigade.\u201d<\/p>\n

This clash will forever \u00a0be remembered as, the \u201cNo Mas\u201d fight.<\/p>\n

Both, Sugar Ray Leonard and Roberto Duran, are considered among the best pound for pound fighters of…all time. Today, they \u00a0are also firm friends!<\/p>\n
