    Where did this narrative that Diego Corrales wasn't a great boxer come from?

    is it because he got senselessly beat by Floyd? Just to make one of Floyd's best wins look not-so good? He isn't no ATG, but he was great, certainly good at least.

    He had a great fan-friendly style and he definitely had a couple of great wins. He beat Roberto Garcia who was world champ and undefeated, and Juuko/Manfredy were good wins. But actually his best wins came after he got beaten to a pulp by the great Mayweather.

    He narrowly beat Casamayor (130) who was world champ, and he would later move to beat the undefeated Freitas and he would later beat lineal champ Castillo in one of the BEST fights in history. How the **** could anyone call this dude a C level fighter?
