better fighter? Pipino Cuevas or Diego Corrales?

at their best? the seething, swaggering cuevas who dominated welterweight for years and had the most feared punch in the game

 

exactly!!!:yep

 

Is this really a legitimate question........

I'm never one to criticize someone else's thread question,,,,,,,

but GEEZ.........

 

Gonna be the same result as in the General, just more drastic.

 

It has to do with Floyd Mayweather.

 

This entire thing started from an argument between turbotime and MAG1965 over Mayweather vs Hearns.

It's cool to hype the opposition of your favorite fighters.

 

Corrales was a good fighter, but no.

 

i could see corrales getting in the hall.




but i am one of the minority that felt that casamayor should be aswell. fuk'yalltinking

 

In terms of who's the better fighter it's a close call, both stalking punches who were ultimately limited at the highest level, in terms of who achieved the most it's certainly Corrales

No doubt that Corrales had the better wins resume, it's not close either, Cuevas resume is pretty weak

 

:huh The years Palomino, Benitez, Leonard and Duran were champion, you mean? The years that four other HOFers held the real title? Those years? Yeah, he pretty much dominated the division aside from every other historically important fighter to come through during the time. You sound like Lax, mate.

 

atschwell if you're gonna include those guys sure...

i'm an idiot...:hat

 

Cuevas blasted out some decent opposition prior to those guys arrival on the 147 Murder Scene. A fight with Palomino '76-'79 would've been interesting.

 

:-( Don't you know the rules, yet? Never admit you're wrong no matter what anyone else says, even if it's a verifiable fact, and never admit you don't know every fighter, haven't seen every fight, no matter how great or small, and always mention Duran (which you'll notice I did). There are other rules. I'll have to explain them later, I suppose. :verysad

Some decent opposition, for sure. And had Palomino, Benitez, Leonard, Duran and Hearns never existed, he'd have been a fairly dominant welterweight champion who defeated all the elite welters of his era. :yep Awesome fighter anyway. :thumbsup
