    Nah, those were very one sided fights. Apparently Floyd really starts to open up and let his hands go when his opponent is female.

    It's obviously Castillo, Mayweather had to fight him twice and a 3rd fight would've happened if Castillo had the decision in the first fight, Pacquiao was Mayweathers easiest fight of those 3 listed

    Pacquiao. Years from now when people think about lighter-weight fighters of this era, the Mayweather-Pacqiuao rivalry will loom largest.

    Floyds biggest rival has to be his baby peni, a rare deformaty which he had all his life.

    It's kind of sad that, on a boxing forum, so little of the discussion in this thread is serious boxing discussion. Mayweather was a great fighter who had some interesting rivalries, particularly with Manny Pacquiao. It appears that many of the posters on this site are juveniles.

    Mayweather never really had a rivalry. All of the people he hate him say that Castillo won their fight without any objectivity. Like constantly saying "Castillo won" is going to somehow take away the W from Mayweather. Mayweather claimed that his shoulder was bum. Whether you believe that or not, he proved to be the better man in the rematch. Anyway, can't stand his personality but he dominated his era.

    Manny pacman was past prime and at a physical disadvantage (hes naturally smaller), Mayweather never really had a true rival.

    They were both past their prime, and going into the fight, many favored Pac. It may have happened too late, but it happened. And for years before this, there was talk of this fight. That's a rivalry, and it's one that will be remembered in the years to come.
