    1) Casamayor (best boxer out of the 4)
    2) Castillo (tough as nails, hard puncher)
    3) Corrales (over 3 football fields worth of heart)
    4) Freitas (good athlete, could box a little, lacked the intangibles)

    Castillo
    Casamayor
    Corrales
    Freitas

    Id say they are all pretty comparable. I never thought Cassamayor and Freitas particularly, were big guys for the respective weight class, so I think skillwise they were the better technical boxers, but all four are pretty comparable head to head.

    How comparable H2H ?
    You know the only time Corralles stopped Castillo it was because Castillo spat his mouthpiece several times which saved him from getting stopped himself in that fight also and it still did not save him in his other fights.

    Also Floyd stopped Corralles and some say Castillo beat Floyd at least one time.
