    You are joking,neither Corrales or Mayweather had had a proper fight outside of America up to that point and never did after,why would anyone outside America be that interested?.

    The way floyd won was far more impressive.As soon as Joe realised he was in a fight and Kessler was dangerous he reverted to his normal thousand slap per round style that the judges love so much.Both were big fights but i think Floyd beating Chico is better.Kessler deserved a rematch which Calzaghe knew would be even harder so no suprise he did not get one,got to make sure Joe keeps his 0.I dont think Chico was calling for a return fight.

    Floyd-Chico was a much greater victory..Floyd was coming off a win over Augustus and was ranked #7 lb 4 lb...Chico was #5 lb 4 lb and I remember everyone telling me Floyd had little chance...After the fight the same people who told me that Floyd would get murdered than said Chico was dehydrated..LMFAO...

    The bigger fight was Kessler Calzaghe,it was virtually 4 belts were it not for IBF politics.Both guy had been champs for years.Whichever way you measure it outside of imaginery P4P rankings Kessler was the more established and better and more dangerous fighter than Chico was.2 title champ had more title fights, had travelled abroad to defend and had been champ for longer and had a bigger unbeaten record.Chico was never quite as good as people thought,Kessler could f**k it all up for himself but I dont see that happening.

    Having said that Mayweather looked damn good beating him
