    Nelson wouldve gotten knocked out by Floyd and anyone will tell you that. He wouldn't even last the whole fight...
    You're just saying that because you don't have a valid argument towards what i'm saying.

    I'm sorry but i've seen those fights I mention -- Pea v Tito, v DLH, v Chavez
    and he lost those fights even though he made it close and competetive.

    Its sad that you say I don't know anything about boxing because I have a valid point and you can't counter it with a legit/mature response.

    A loss is a loss and Floyd beat Castillo twice. I didn't say that those guys would win either, I just said they would give him fits. Styles make fights and those styles match up well. Chico had the speed and the savvy to make it a tough night for pea.

    What did Castillo do to beat the crap out of Floyd? As I seen it Floyd bounced around the ring and hit him with flush shots. Castillo had his moments but if you knew a thing about the sweet science then you would know that all that bull**** Castillo was doing was ineffective. The commentators hyped that up. If you watched the fight instead of listening to Jim Lampley and Larry Merchant - you wouldve seen the unbias outcome. All that bull**** was just to hype another fight and you seen the result of the second one.

    George Foreman didn't say anything about Mayweather losing.

    If you saw that first fight, then you know what you saw, come on how, you know who won the first fight don't you.

    Yeah Floyd
    Castillo was flat footed and everytime Floyd pivoted, bounced, and changed angles he was poppin the **** out of Castillo. Floyd fought effectively going backwards and Castillo was walking into alot of ****. If it wasnt for his chin he wouldve been out of there. by the way except for that bull**** w/ Hatton, Castillo had never been knocked down and only stopped once (he was still standing)

    He beats those guys but you have to remember -- those guys were champions and at the time they fought Floyd they had belts. (he took their belts)
    ...along w/ DLH, Hernandez, and Castillo all had their belts taken away by Floyd.

    Pernell would have had no trouble dealing Castillo and Corrales. He thrived on pressure fighters. Castillo was a phenominal inside fighter, but likely wouldn't be able to close the gap. Even on the inside, he would have been outdone by a craftier, smarter Whitaker. This is evident from his handling of Chavez on the inside, who was basically Castillo x 2, as well as his easy domination of Jose Luis Ramirez. Corrales would have swung at air all night and would have been given a boxing lesson.

    Void Maywether's brain would have been, well, VOID, vs. Whitaker.

    Pea fought on the inside -- did you see the McGirt fights?

    but who did Sweet Pea beat (officially) that you would say was on the same level of Mayweather? and of those guys who would you say could beat Mayweather? and be honest fellas -- we're all men and I hope you guys respond maturely.

    Officially, I don't think he beat anybody as good as a prime Mayweather. And Floyd never beat anybody as good as a prime Pernell Whitaker. So in that case, we can't go by this argument. We have to go by what they have shown us in the fights they won.
