ALLEN IVERSON: HAILED BY KEVIN DURANT

It’s a speech given to the most respected in any field of sports – “pound for pound the best”. And didn’t we already know that it’s a phrase only for mixed martial arts and boxing sports? Well, now, not really.

Surely ‘His Royal Airness’ Michael Jordan would surely take the spot and claim the throne, but not for one. Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Kevin Durant.

“Chuck too real. He changed the way we play ball. He changed the culture of ball. He is pound for pound the best. He paved the way. I can go on and on. But he’s a legend and I’m just walking the path he created,” hailed KD.

KD took to social media and hailed the former Philadelphia 76ers star Allen Iverson, as “pound for pound the best.” This isn’t new to the ears either, LeBron James also said it past year. But the difference is, who KD hailed and described Allen Iverson as an influential player.
