    I wish all "limited fighters" had balls of steel and two fisted power.

    Yeah the whole fight he just followed Floyd around looking for 1 big punch pretty much like a zombie.

    Heres the thing, for me personally, they cant be compared yet, because Corrales went on to prove his worth, while peterson is still developing, and we dont know what he will do yet.

    If we are just going off of what we 'percieve' their abilities to be, then i can see how one would rank Peterson higher, but in boxing you have to go by the tangible more often then not, and Corrales has beat Frietas, Casamayor, Castillo, ect.... hes a proven champion, all the little measurables that we boxing fans like to look at, does this guy have a jab, how is his right hand, footwork, ect, all these skills, at the end of the day are only part of the equation, Peterson has yet to truly establish himself, so to me they cannot be compared as of yet, regardless if i think peterson may or may not be better the chico skill wise.

    So i will have to wait to see how things pan out before i can say that i think the peterson win was better.... or even as good. just imo

    p4p, Corrales, Freitas, Casa and JLC are all a step or two up from Bradley, who I like but don't consider particularly outstanding. And 'good but not particularly outstanding' was good enough to beat Peterson. And clowns like BoomBoom want to compare PETERSON with CHICO? What a ****ing joke. What an ignorant, know-nothing, insulting joke that is.

    Why are people calling Corrales limited? He wasnt just a brawler, he proved that in the 2nd Casa fight when he outboxed him. Was Morales limited then *******s?

    I still think the Corrales' win over Casamayou was a clear robbery. Corrales won 5 rounds in that fight at best.
    And no one questioned Freitas heart before the Corrales fight. As someone said before, Freitas had gone life and death with fighters like Casamayor and Barrios before quitting against Chico.

    you can't be serious, corrales was limited ..

    Pac is limited, if not for his speed he would be done... Pac come straight in with his in the air throwing punches ..

    Corrales atleast had the fundamental down and a very good infighter, and put his punches to together very well. Corrales biggest problem is that he stayed at the 135 weight for too long, and it killed his longevity in the sport. Corralles tried to move to 147 when he absolutely could not make 135 even having a good camp, and sitting in a steam room all day.

    Well you know haters will do that for ya.. Just because Floyd beat Corrales, he was just very limited and floyd was lucky to beat a weight drain, jail pending, stressed out Corrales, limited boxer like Corrales..

    I wonder what the excuse will be if floyd out classes Pac?
