    Lacy WILL be the next big thing if hebeats Joe C., and rightfully so.

    Tszyu does NOT get ranked above Floyd by many because Tszyu is BIGGER. It's really a quite simple concept to understand. If Tszyu was doing what he is doing now, except at middleweight, he would easily be ranked number one p4p. Floyd started at 130 and could still make 130 probably. Floyd just got to 140 so don't disrespect his opposition there yet. N'dou was a decent fighter and Corley is top 10. So is Gatti. He wants to work his way up at 140 but everyone knows he wants Tszyu. Why should he go right up to a new weight class and fight Tszyu first though? That'd be ******.

    You cannot swap Tszyu and Floyd's resumes becuase Floyd used to fight in a lower weightclass. Tszyu would never have been small eough to fight those guys anyway.
    I know what you're saying, but saying Tszyu is BIGGER is over exaggerating.
    Here is a little tale of the tape for you:

    TSZYU MAYWEATHER
    Hight - 5'7 Hight - 5'8
    Reach - 67'' Reach - 72''

    Notice the 5 inch reach advantage for Mayweather?
    So how can you say Tszyu is bigger? Of course Tszyu has a bigger frame as Mayweather has the height and a reach advantage. But I would not say Tszyu is bigger, because Mayweather is skinnier.

    If that's your logic, you can say that most everyone Hopkin fights is bigger than him as Hopkins on avarage almost 2.5 inches taller than his competition, thus he has to compensate with his smaller waist and frame.
    But if this really the case? Than the last I've heard everyone is saying that Hopkins is "Bigger" than most of his opposition.

      lol What's bad is that if Corrales refuses the rematch, most people would label him as a lucky prick that night. I'm guessing he don't want more. Who wants to make a return trip to hell?

        Tszyu is the #1 guy in the div though and rightfully should be. Floyd is next and the other 3 are all about tied in my book.
        I agree:

        1- Tszyu
        2- Mayweather
        3- Cotto
        4- Harris
        5- Hatton
        6- Mitchell
        7- Gatti

        Is my top 7

            Corrales is done. This time he wont be able to spit his mouthpiece or be saved by a ***** ref prematurely stopping the fight.

            Castillo UD

              Don't think the stoppage was premature

                IF a rematch does happen, Castillo's knocking him out.

                  Its obvious to anyone it was. You have a legend like Castillo who NEVER been knockdown, yet the ref doesnt give him a single opportunity to hit the canvas and take a count, BUT when it comes to Corrales hitting the canvas, he gets 2 full 8 counts and spits the mouthpiece 3 times.

                  Had the ref been unbiased in the fight Corrales would have lost. Thats why theres a mandatory rematch and controversy over Corrales win. Lets see him pull that **** twice.

                      The stoppage was premature when Gatti fought the tough Spaniard Rodriguez in defence of the 130lbs IBF title. Gatti looked in a very similar posisition to Castillo at one point. But he recovered from it and brought some of his own back at Rodriguez.
