    The same Corrales that fought several more times at 130 after his fight with Floyd?

      Mayweather and Corrales are so far apart on skill level I don't see how anyone could see a different outcome other than Floyd dominating him...

          Just because he stayed there doesn't mean he didn't struggle with making the weight. Castillo stayed at lw until his body couldn't take it anymore.

            I'd agree Floyd would still win but a Corrales at lw or jr ww might have put up more of a fight given his struggles making the weight.

              You have no proof he was supposedly weight drained against Floyd...


              Anyone who's come down and weight and lost can make the argument they were weight drained...

                Well he managed to beat Casamayor at 130 almost 2 years after he fought Floyd. It was a controversial fight but it was still rather close, if a fighter is able to do that well at the weight 2 years after the fact that does not speak to him being weight drained.

                Chico does not need you making excuses for him~.

PBF got rocked hardcore by Corley, 4th round of their fight, got a bs decision against hasbeen DLH, but yet his nuthuggers think he's invincible and the GOAT! What will you say if Marquez pulls a Diaz on his ass, then what's going to be the excuse???
                  Shut up go to fake as wrestling go worry about kane or someone.

                    Corrales never fought at 140...while Floyd has shown he can win at that weight

                      So Corrales being about 6 feet and weighing 130 is normal? I want to make sure you agree that such a low weight was natural for a guy his size. And if he didn't have weight problems why did he later fail to make weight at 135? I don't believe the it was his age argument if you look at Hop he made 160 in his 40s.
