    I agree with that.

    Many HOFers even come out to become a HOF long time after they retire.

      His skills are good no doubt. Props on the 5 weight classes....DLH has 6, one more than Floyd, and yet he's not an ATG?? Other than the Pac fight, his losses did really look like he lost(except Hopkins & Sturm).

      I'm still curious on how he is considered an ATG at 135.

        He is great, very skilled and worthy of praise, but i dont fall for that"Greatest of all time" talk.

        Gotta admit that his title at 140 and 147 were rather suspect. GAtti was called a paper champ by Floyd, Gatti was champ cause Tzsyu was stripped. At 147, Floyd hit the lottery when Baldomir became champ, Vernon Forrest would later go on to beat Baldomir, so make what u want of it. Yes, he won, but questioning his fights is not hating.

          I agree with this 100%. Winning belts in 5 weight classes is still really good though.

            Castillo is a HOFer already,most likely Corrales is himself,not first ballot but HOFer,at least in my view.

                The only guy who would possibly be a tough fight would be ..........well....damn, no one.

                The only guy would be Castillo at 135, he was kinda like a mini chavez in some ways, but Oscar handled the real chavez twice, other than that, Oscar would be undefeated.
