    We all agree castillo gave Floyd fits I feel he won both fights.... 1st one was tough though but I think canelo does everything better than castillo....

    I think this the best fighter Floyd will have ever fought ever ...
     

  4. That's why the Mayweather-Castillo fight was not that much of an event, and the Canelo fight is a huge fight with Mayweather getting paid into the 10's of millions.

    Canelo is simply bigger and better than Castillo, but Mayweather is also bigger than back then, more experience, and I personally think a lot better.

    I agree ... I always felt this was his most competitive fight because jlc had a game plan .. Oscar ... Hatton most others just wanted to knock Floyd out...... Canelo is very smart in there

    Castillo, no doubt.

    Castillo is the first fighter that beat convincingly Floyd in their first bout. Very. very good boxer.

    Alvarez is big and strong but don't forget that Floyd is a full grown ww with lots of good experience and much, much wiser in the ring.

    . JLC also has a very good jab and can make adjustments.

    JLC was the better pressure fighter no doubt. As far as being the better boxer still too early to tell. I have to see how he performs against PBF. With that said JLC had very underrated boxing ability.

    Come on man! Convincingly is 8-4 or better. PBF-JLC 1 was a close fight nothing convincingly either way. That's why there was a rematch and PBF won that one convincingly.:deal

    turn off your hate blinders.

    Castillo is better on the inside
    He is better moving foreward... a far better pressure fighter
    He throws more punches.
    Has better stanima.
    Is much much tougher.:deal
