barrera was weight drained coming into the pac fight which is the only reason he went down 5 time before his corner decided to stop the fight.
no man, corrales came in to fight. barrera didn't because barrera was already stopped by jones twice before and he came in weight drained. pac came in as the favorite but many considered barrera as just a threat. on the otherhand, floyd was a heavy underdog against corrales at the time. many thought, even his own corner that style wise, there was no chance of floyd beating corrales.
Tell Pac to grow a pair and sign to fight May 5 and he will have a real chance to beat an ATG and not past prime, weight drained ones. :smoke
I know full well everyone will try to say Barerra was the better win than anyone on Floyds resume. Floyds win over Marquez is greater than Pacquiaos won over Marquez.
He already beat two, Barrera (1st fight) and Marquez (2nd fight). Floyd has never done this. And you know it. :smoke
Pac has the better signature wins at this point. This will change if Pac signs to fight on May 5 though and you know it. It will be a one sided beating. Anyway, listing Marquez is the equivalent of listing JLC as one of Floyd's best wins. He is a likely HOFer IMO and was in his prime when Floyd beat him. So there. :smoke
Marquez is and always has been superior to Castillo. He's a higher-level fighter in terms of ability, and has had a superior career.
Barerra and Marquez aren't atgs. Pacquiao fans create threads like this because they still feel the need to say Pacquiao accomplished something Floyd didn't. Pacquiao didn't beat Marquez, and Floyds never been knocked out.
