    Please just stop creating PBF threads the guy is gone **** him FFS who cares the guy was boring and a ducker let him be enough already. Lets discuss active fighters who fight the best or that we can reasonably assume will take a challenge.

    Interesting how folks like to forget the fact that Mayweather was hurt the 1st fight and the fact that Mayweather clearly won the 2nd fight. :-(

    Ring generalship - how confrontable a fighter is in the ring in dictating the pace of the fight defensively and offensively .

    clean punches landed .

    I had the first Castillo fight 7-5 for Castillo. The second fight 7-5 for Mayweather. Both fights were close as hell. No robbery really.

    They are both very slow. Both throw wide looping punches. Both need to be set to be able to punch, and both just follow their opponent around. They

    :nono

    One is old, one is prime.. One has a high Ko ratio and one does not. One commits to the body one does not..One throws about 100 punches per round the other does not. One was DUCKED by MAyweather the other was selling f'n feather dusters on the street just TWO fights before facing Mayweather.......

    I don't understand this post at all. Who specifically is being compared to Castillo, and for what purpose?

    Baldomir averages 85 punches a round not 100. Oh crap!

    High KO Ratio? That means jack ****. Mayweather has a higher KO ratio than Margo, are you going to tell me that you would favor Mayweather to KO someone over Margo to KO someone?

    Mayweather offered the fight up to Arum and Margo. It was turned down. Margo and Arum then offer Floyd a fight while he was injured.

    Who cares if he was selling feather dusters however many fights ago. Like that has ANYTHING to do with the topic.

    Since the Baldomir fight, every fighter Floyd has faced has been compared to Castillo in some way of bringing the pressure from the first fight.

    Baldomir, Hatton, DLH. All got referrence in some way on how they will bring pressure like Castillo in the first fight.

    They use the first fight like if it has true meaning, as if he didn't rematch Castillo after that and beat him.

    we arent comparing May to Margo...we are talking about Baldo and Margo..:patsch

    thanks for touching on the part that one is old and one is prime..that one actually thows body shots and when you cant commit FULL TIME to boxing cuause you keep a part time job..well you figure that out for yourself..
    MAYWEATHER didnt offer crap to MARGO....HE MADE 237,382,950 excuses not to fight him..

    dONT BRING THAT "RUMOR" up about a BS offer Floyd made either to Margo after turning him down, just before Marg had a fight coming up, cuz Floyd still had an open date when Margo and Arum re offred to fight him..

    Floyd is full of crap and so are you...

    Comparing Baldo to MArgo....lol... :lol:
