    Corrales/Castillo B Level :-(

    The Ring 2000 End of Year P4P List

    1. Shane Mosley
    2. Felix Trinidad
    3. Roy Jones Jr.
    4. Oscar De La Hoya
    5. Diego Corrales
    6. Naseem Hamed
    7. Floyd Mayweather Jr.
    8. Lennox Lewis
    9. Erik Morales
    10. Bernard Hopkins

    DLH old? He was 34, Mayweather was 30 and Floyd was probably outweighed by 15lbs :-(

    It's easy to see that when Floyd is fighting inferior opposition and looking good doign it. And when you look at common opponents anyway Pacquiao has generally disposed of them easier then Floyd was able to.

    Basically my point is your only as good as who you fight. Anybody can look good against overmatched opponents. There's been very few instances where Floyd stepped up and challenged himself, and he looked a lot more beatable when he did.

    Yet a Marquez that was 2 years older schooled the Pacman after losing every round to Mayweather :lol:

    P4P #5 makes Corrales A - level? P4P lists don't mean ****. Castillo and Corrales were good ,but they weren't A-level. Oscar was the closest thing he beat to an A-level opponent, but wasn't near his prime.

    :huh With a P4P list? I don't see why you fanboys STILL act like they have this great meaning. P4P lists are for fun, nothing more...

    Who hasn't beaten Ricardo Mayorga? Mayorga has lost every major fight he's been in besides the Forrest fights.

    Corrales lost to every major fighter he fought, he isn't A class at all.

    Yet, Pacquiao and Arum continue to duck him with the latest "cut" excuse. If Floyd is such ****, why wont Arum let Manny fight him? Manny wants it, Floyd wants it, but Arum comes up with new BS. He sees that Floyd will end Pacquiao's reign, and he doesn't want that to happen before he gets as much as he can from Pacquiao.

    Actually, he lost , but you can go ahead with your imaginations. And Marquez has always had pacquiao's number, and Marquez would never do well against Floyd based on styles either.

    Pacquiao also didnt purposely avoid a agreed upon catchweight to gain an unfair advantage even when Marquez looked like he ate a box of jelly donuts before the weigh-in, after moving up from a lower weight-class. Floydbitch ftw :good

    Marquez disagress.

    Even tho he dropped Mosley, and Mosley rocked Floyd, id say overall Floyd dominated Shane much better.

    About 95% of the Boxing world disagrees...Most of the other 5% had it a draw, and the rest are just stupid *******s in denial. :deal
