    1 for sure maybe 2
    Beats Tito and Pac. Possibly loses to Pea and loses to Hopkins.

    Floyd was just simply better than Quartey.

    Also when exactly did Castillo "beat up" Floyd. Was it in the fight that Floyd won?

    Even ardent haters of Floyd would never say he was beat up. Some may say Castillo scraped a decision. Beat up? Dont be stupid.

    Considering that Hopkins has spent the majority of his career weighing in at over 165lbs, a fighter like Floyd who had more fights at Super featherweight than any other weight shouldnt even be considered as an opponent.

    I voted 2 because i was thinking prime Whitaker(which is a pick em fight for me)... Re read and realized it was from when Oscar fought them...

    The only one he loses to is Hopkins IMO, and I believe that fight would be more interesting than people think..

    yeah, this is basically they way I looked at it? I am a fan of Pac but but I know this guy is a **** . . . so I wonder how Pac would do against the same guys?:think

    I would pick the Pac De La Hoya fought over that version of Whitaker, Trinidad would have been very interesting... Hopkins I would pick over Pac for sure.. The only one I would rule Pac as having little chance would be Hopkins.

    I agree that all the match-ups would be interesting. I had that version of pernell beating Oscar . . . so he would be a tough out for both Pac and PBF I would give PBF a slight edge and Pernell a very slight edge over Pac. I think PBF beats Tito I think Pac gets by him too but it would be a great fight. Bhop is too big for both guys they both max out around 150.

    He would beat this version of Sweet Pea, the rest he's just simply better than. Hopkins, I think would be interesting but the size is just a bit hard to overcome.

    I honestly feel Judah could have beat him if he had better stamina.

    There is the proof that Castillo defeated Floyd. Your idol lost here. Imagine if he had faced the toughest opponents mentioned above.

    I favor Floyd against Whitaker at Whitaker's prime.

    The only way you can give Castillo a win in that fight is if you give a great deal of credit for punches during a clinch. Those punches just don't score much. If they did the winning strategy in boxing would be to clinch and get your hands busier than your opponent. It doesn't work that way.
