    Explain how Castillo is better than Marquez at Lightweight. His resume is actually pretty thin if you ask me, and it's clear as far as I see it that Marquez has already surpassed Castillo's resume at the weight. Marquez is a more complete fighter than Castillo at Lightweight, and a more successful one too.

    Nobody is doubting his greatness.

    I think its very likely all these three mexican legends would lose ALL 12 rounds.

    I believe Morales had the best chance at beating him if im honest.

    He would have picked Barrera apart, he was just too raw

    Marquez showed he would struggle with a counter puncher better than him

    Morales actually is the closest thing to Pacquiao in Mexican Boxing. Non stop pressure and I believe Morales could have won (Castillo scenario)

    Needles to say they all last the distance

    despite being a big barrera fan i see floyd bein all wrong for him i think a wide 12 round loss although id never rulle barrera out in fight

    i can see marquez doing much better then he did at the higher weight but i think some knockdowns will happen and ruin his chances

    however i truly think morales against a 130 pounder floyd would be interesting because floyd was much more aggressive back then and i truly think this would suit morales who is very under rated technically and some of his smart faints and combos and variety of punches could truly do soemthing i believe

    All three give Mayweather very tough fights and last the full 12 rounds. Fact!

    The only one I see giving Mayweather a tough fight is Morales. And around round 10 or 11 Morales has to quit because he is catching too many flush punches, much like Jesus Chavez.

    Only one I'd pick is Barrera to last the distance, Morales proved he could be knocked out, Marquez got decked 3 times in one round vs a version of Pac at 130 that ouldn't hold Floyds jockstrap

    you mean the walking corpse of Casillo will beat Marquez now??? Anyway he knocks out non of them. Corrales was drained like anything and tailor made for Floyd. The Mexican trio are all certified HOF for a reason. They were faster, more versatile with better defense. I will go further and say that if he fought them he was going to lose at least to one of them

    Then you dont know what the hell you are talking about. No way either of them beat Floyd. You must not have seen Floyd at 130?


    And how was Corrales drained when he won a title there as soon as he got out of prison. :nut

    At 130 Floyd was better than he was against Marquez, had better hands, wasn't inactive, was more aggressive. Mayweather said the JMM fight wasn't a good performance of his.

    He may or may not stop any of them, but if Raheem won every round against Morales, Jones/Pacman stopped MAB, then you have to give Mayweather a shot of a stoppage at 130

    Morales rapes him like he did in sparring.
