    Remind me to go to that other thread where it asks which set of fans are horrible for this sport.

    Do you think the fact that he only faced B- and C class opposition at 140 might have contributed to him looking so good at the weight?

    Demarcus Corley and Gatti are horrific opponents to look good against. Neither Judah or Cotto looked good against Corley. And Oscar didnt look as good as Floyd dismantling Gatti.

    Floyd was nearly flawless in those fights and would own Meldrick Taylor, who will go down in history not for any signature win, but almost beating Chavez.

    Honestly, speed, power, all virtually even between the 2. You think Taylor is better technically and defensively then Mayweather at 140? :lol:

    Sorry, what you are looking for is A, B, B+.

    You dont know **** about Castillo you ****ing clown. Infact its a disgrace that a someone who didnt even know Mayorga and Spinks fought would even mention that mans name.

    Floyd was coming up to Oscar's weight class, against an Oscar who was coming off a KO win over Mayorga, the same Mayorga that gave Mosley hell a year later.

    How is that B-?

    And I know you're high school dropout ass probably had it an SD, but the majority of the boxig public had it comfortably for Floyd.
