    Even though they all came out on the losing end, who has provided the best fight for Floyd out of Judah, Delahoya, and Hatton?

    I pick Zab. What do you guys think?

    Despite what Mayweather says, I think Castillo was by far his toughest bout (first fight), followed by the DLH fight.

    Judah would probably be third.

    His most entertaining or challenging? His most challenging was Castillo 1, which is seriously underrated, it was a war. Others include Chavez, Corley and Hatton as most entertaining.

    weight taken into account i'd go with oscar.

    oscarøs a more talented (allround) fighter than judah and hatton, and giving out the ring size, gloves and weight, of course, i think undervalues the achievement.

    especially the weight which is a big issue.

    Recent time - DLH, 5th weight class, size diff, weight diff, power diff. Add in DLH isn't a Baldomir.

    His first fight w/ Castillo was obviously tougher for him.

    I didn't comment on the situation. I simply stated what Floyd said. Please don't freak out.

    I just said his first fight w/ Castillo was tougher. That's not freaking out. You, by stating that, are the one who needs to not freak out.

    Floyd said his toughest fight was against EA. I'm going to believe him on this one.

    i think he knows whats up thats why he avoided the rematch, DLH would be his toughest fight add to that the fact that DLH is being trained now by his father

    it looked like ricky hatton would have been his toughest fight but it turned out to be easy for floyd-castillo was obviously his toughest test.
