      There's no way in hell that Corrales would beat Floyd. Floyd's style is too much for Corrales to handle.

        corrales is getting better every fight. he's new and improved.he's bigger and more powerfull than anyone pbf has fought. will be interesting to see if pbf has any boxing skills and make adjustments to go along with all that natural ability. at 140 corrales will win and maybe even expose him. this will be a much different fight than first one.

          I highly doubt that. Corrales is still the same fighter he was then. It doesn't matter how big he is, he will never beat Floyd. Don't be fooled by Corrales's win over Castillo. Remember, Corrales has been floored 10 times in his last nine fights. He goes down too easily.

                  I like Corrales a lot, but you can't compare him to Floyd Mayweather. Anyone have a picture of when Corrales is on two knees with his arms all streched out? lol

                    In the face of Kostya Tszyu's 3rd round blow out of Sharmba Mitchell, Bernard Hopkins' ko's of De La Hoya and Trinidad as well as his 20 defenses of the middleweight title, and Winky Wright's last 3 dominant performances, Mayweather beating a guy for a meaningless WBC belt would make him p4p king? I think Diego Corrales has been more impressive in recent years. In his last 3 fights, what have we got?

                    Joel Casamayor W12
                    Acelino Freitas KO10
                    Jose Luis Castillo KO10

                    Floyd Mayweather?

                    Philip N'Dou KO7
                    Demarcus Corley W12
                    Henry Bruseles KO8

                    These 3 opponents have not been the caliber of fighter that I have come to expect the p4p king to take on. Mayweather hasn't convincingly beaten a good opponent since Diego Corrales in 2001.

                      Corrales was knocked down 5 times against Mayweather, and I give Mayweather that. Corrales was knocked down 3 times in 2 fights with Casamayor, and Casamayor is a pretty decent puncher. But taking all those flush counters from Freitas, and only going down after Castillo rained hundreds of huge shots on him, and you have to assume that he has a decent chin.
