@ 154 pounds
Duran is not a 154 pounder. He was CHAMP at 135 for a long long time. He moved up to welterweight at 135 (beating Leonard) and yes kept moving up even reaching 154. That is like asking if Kareem abdul Jabbar played Wilt Chamberlain when he was 47, how would he do? Answer is:.....DUMB QUESTION.
Mayweather has only fought once @ 154- against De La Hoya. Duran fought more Light Middleweight (Super Welterweight) fights than Mayweather.
Why are you not asking at lightweight? At 154 I think Mayweather because he would run and dance and win on points. Duran was a like a turtle at 154. SLOW....but still tough and could still punch. But he could not chase.
Mayweather much more comfortable @ 147. Would you like me to make that the weight?
LOL
Now answer...
If they fought at 205 how would it go?
Would be the same as Sugar Ray Leonard's fights. If they fight, Duran wins. If Mayweather wants to hit and run, then he wins.

Fight wouldn't happen. Mayweather would duck Duran.
Tommy Hearns at 147 would kill Mayweather
