    It impressed the **** out of me.
    What the ****? The Castillo fights took place YEARS after the Mayweather fight.

      Maybe him going to jail and dealing with the whole wife beating thing in front of the whole public. You go through that, and then try to do your job like nothing is wrong and perform at the highest level you can. I didnt say that he wouldve won, by no means, i said because that happend to Diego i dont think Floyd recieves all the credit he could have.

        it was a great performance, but no where even remotely close to the greatest in history. wasnt even performance of the decade, or half decade, and it might now have even been the performance of the year!

          I know, I realized that after I posted. Glad someone noticed.

            Alot of the carnage was the product of Corrales being sans-legs from making 130. He's like Vivian Harris in that they stayed way too long at an unnaturally low weight and it hurt their careers.

            But to be honest, Mayweather would've still ate him at any weight.

                Come on now, lucky? Floyds superior boxing skills wouldve won that night no matter what weight Diego came in at, he just isnt in the same boxing class that Floyd is, lets be real.

                  Very good performance, definitely not the best in the history of the sport.

                  Hearns vs Duran
                  Jones vs Toney
                  Calzaghe vs Lacy
                  Hopkins vs Trinidad/Johnson
                  Whitaker vs Ramirez II
                  Camacho vs Ramirez

                  Just a few from recent times right there that at least matchup with it.

                    Corrales has more power then mayweather and hes a inboxer or he can outbox and i seen him swarm opponants e.g. castilo.
                    He didnt even try to outbox mayweather he was a shot boxer in that fight and im not takin no credit away from mayweather im jus sayin he didnt fight the best carroles.
                    Corrales was like basically falling all over the place there wasnt much power to mayweathers punchers.
