LAS VEGAS — If there was a tougher person to ever pull on a pair of gloves and step into a ring than Roberto Duran, the Boxing Hall of Famer whom many regard as the greatest lightweight of all-time, I haven’t met him yet.
But nearly 40 years after his rematch in New Orleans with the great Sugar Ray Leonard, Duran’s decision to quit the bout by saying, “No mas,” is still a frequent topic of conversation.
Duran came to mind Saturday during the first bout of the UFC show at Apex when Max Rohskopf decided he’d had enough after the second round of his bout with Austin Hubbard.
