    Yes, yes, that's what I meant, very coincidental and crazy to think. RIP to those three greats! Great great fights and memories they gave us.

    I did think of that the other day. Well he beat them but I dont want it to turn into a weird thread.

    But what is sad is that mayweather is a current active fighter and 3 of his past opponents have already died, thats too many boxers dying young.

    I read an old ring a few months ago from 99 and Floyd and Morales were the hot property at the time.Weird that Floyd still seems young(ish)

    None of this had anything to do with Floyd, lol. R.I.P Gatti, Corrales and Hernandez. Two of my favorite fighters of all time ( Gatti & Corrales ) especially Gatti.

    ...and yet Sergio Martinez accuses Manny of fighting dead guys. Such hypocrisy!

    That's an odd pattern, nothing more.
