    .............was not a particularly exciting fight, fill in the blank.

    I will catch some heat for this but i dont think Corrales/Mayweather was particularly exciting to watch, albeit a flawless performance, what you got?

    I agree with you on Mayweather-Corrales, it's shite. Corrales lumbers around like a zombie, bizarrely refusing to punch or even jab. Floyd is excellent, but it's a strange and boring fight.

    My pick would be Pacquiao vs Barrera II. I thought it would be very exciting while it lasted, but it turned out to be extremely dull and disappointing.

    You're not crazy for thinking Mayweather/Castillo was not exciting, because truthfully speaking it, it wasn’t. But that’s the thing, those kind of fights by Mayweather (Marquez, Mosley etc) aren’t really meant to excite you. Instead they put you in a state of awe and appreciation, for Mayweather’s superiority in skill and intelligence. He’s not a Pacquiao in that you watch a fight, and left thinking “F*cking hell that was breath taking!”.

    Simply put:

    Pacquiao fight = A 100mph blast in a Ferrari
    Mayweather fight = A gentle mid-night cruise in a Bentley

    RJJ vs Joe. When he dropped Joe, I thought the old RJJ was back. Wrong.
