    Exactly. Morales doesn't have "????" because there is a solution to beating him that Floyd would know while with Floyd, you do have "????" on how to beat him.

    castillo one is just one of many differant ways you could beat floyd.

    Morales at 130 would definetly have his moments.

    Floyd hasn't beaten anyone his whole career as good as Morales, so to just pick out a random legend and suggests he beaats him easly is plain nut huggery at its best

    First, we are being specific to what Morales can do. Size, Strength, and Power with Castillo I would say is greater with him than with Morales.

    In addition...So you want to make sure Floyd has an injury before Morales fights him the first time?

    i just don't buy the whole there's no style to beat floyd approach.

    Its bs. Maybe if he'd beat a number of prime HOF'ers all at differant styles you could say that but as it stands you could beat floyd using a variety of style. But i'd say you'd have to be a prime ATG to beat floyd in his prime who is also an ATG.

    Duran would you intelligent pressure to beat him by outworking him over 12.
    Leonard would outpoint him
    Hearns would out box him of the jab.

    All 3 would be ably to beat him using a variety of styles.

    Castillo also won plenty of rounds in the 2nd fight against a fully healthy floyd too btw.

    Morales wouldn't beat floyd i dont think, he wouldn't use his size. But he would be competetive

    Morales prime was at 122. Morales was well past his prime at 130 and above.

    floyd KO in 7 or ref stops the fight, morales is one of the best warriors out there but floyd is on another level specially at the lower weights floyd was a beast

    Floyd ducks El Terrible for years using X (insert reaon here) for an excuse then forms a promotional company named TMT. He then says that he is going to have all fighters tested for X (insert reason here) while neglecting the fact that fighters in his company have been caught using X. He rides that excuse forever while never facing fighters in their respective prime.

    You think Morales is a primarily come forward fighter? Now who dont know **** about boxing. :lol:

    Go watch his fights with Famoso, Jesus Chavez and Pacquiao. He largely boxed off the back foot fighting off the ropes ect.

    Like Mayweather Morales adapts his style based on the opposition.

    Seriously you should switxh sports to something more your intelligence level. Floyd a defensive cutie? :lol:

    And no most fighters do not incorporate countering off the ropes into their arsenal.

    What's Floyd's best wins? He looks unbeatable vs beatable guys that are semi retired. Oscar, Mosley or damaged like Cotto or one dimensional like Hatton and Chico. His best win really is Castillo and he basically won 1 lost 1. Great resume, but it pails in comparison to Eriks. How you explain a smaller, lighter, slower, weaker fighter whipping him even in sparring? Spadafora, okay, Floyd was out of shape, they were about same size, but Erik and Floyd both prime. There was absolutely no excuse for Floyd getting whipped by a smaller dude! None!
