    Corrales is by far his greatest win.

    Perfect performance.

    I don't know what you're talking about. I never mentioned him.

    Basically what I was saying is, he lost to a journeyman and was KOed by others in his career.

    Careful. Hell hath no fury like a Tszyu fan scorned.

    Clottey's a solid fighter but Baldomir is a journeyman.

    Baldomir holds a win over Clottey.

    I think Ricky is good ,but not at all a HOF just on his career so far. Oscar is the only Hall of Famer for sure Floyd fought and Genaro Hernandez, who Genaro was on the downside when Floyd fought him. Floyd really is lacking in great fighters. Oscar did fight the great fighters more than Floyd, although Oscar did not beat prime fighters. In someway Shane comes out ahead of both of them. He beat Oscar when Oscar was young.

    I understand that, but you know as well as I do that before Clottey was disqualified, he was winning that fight.

    Do you really believe that Baldomir has the skills to be considered anything more than a journeyman?

    In fact, I think he lost the fight with Judah.

    Oscar on his way down.
    Hatton hasn't have a decent fight @147lbs. Collazo demostrated Hatton isn't ****. Only then Floyd accepted to fight him.
    Corrales: Definitely a warrior. But not the most skillful boxer.

    Diego Corrales at the time was a much better fighter than Ricky...He was 33-0 27kos...He was #5 lb for lb and alotta people thought he'd lose to Diego...

    Genaro Hernandez was a huge win as well and arguably top 3....Hernandez was undefeated at 130lbs and floyd was only in his 18th fight as a proffesional and had been boxing for less than 2 years...

    LETS ALSO NOT FORGET FLOYD WAS TRYING TO GET A FIGHT WITH TSZU FOR THE LONGEST TIME!~

    1. Deigo Corrales - Dominated one of the most talented fighters in boxing at that time. P4P top 5. Chico would go on to have a very successful title filled career.

    2. Ricky Hatton - P4P top 10 today. Considered the best 140lb fighter in the world and with his bout with Pacquaio could very well be considered top P4P in the world by the summer.

    3. Jose Luis Castillo - Considered the best fighter in the world at 135. Would go on to win another title and defeat Julio Diaz, Joel Casamayor, and Chico Corrales.

    Honorable mention: Oscar De La hoya, Genero Hernandez, Jesus Chavez
