    Probably De La Hoya, Corrales or Castillo I and II

    I'm thinking the G. Hernandez win and Manfredy blow out do not get enough credit though.

    Corrales, most of his super featherweight title wins. Wish he was still like that now.

    I'd say Corrales.

    I couldn't stay awake to watch the end of the DLH fight, it sent me over the edge..... like most of Oscar's fights to be honest.

    Yep, those 2 fights rarely get mentioned but they are very good wins for Mayweather.

    Castillo 2, far more convincing than the first one which I thought he lost

    Yep, Manfredy especially. Hernandez can get some love at times, but Manfredy is almost never mentioned, despite many people thinking he would beat Floyd and him being in the running for Ring! Fighter of the Year that year.

    Most of his best wins are bunched together. There's no substantial difference between a lot of them. I sort of like Castillo 2 or even Hatton. DLH should be considered too.

    Wish floyd was still a lightweight/super feather, he was devastating at those weights. With his limited power at welter/light welter he diminished and became the turn off he is now. This isn't to say I don't appreciate what he does, but he isn't much of a spectacle now. I think his most disappointing was against jmm . He had every advantage in that fight, had him in trouble, but has foughtso negative at welter he doesn't know how to finish any more. I think he would have trouble against manny and he knows it, hence no fight

    yeah he had marquez in trouble and didn't put the foot down.

    sugar ray leonard had a few of those fights and closed the show.

    shame mayweather doesn't have that same kinda devil.

    still a great fighter though.

    just wish he'd **** or get off the pot. :roll:
