    Chico Would Beat Hatton But I Dont Think He Could Beat Kostya. Kostya's Power Would Be Too Much 4 Chico. Hatton Is Such A Overrated Fighter And Kostya Will Show Hatton And The Hatton Fans That Hatton's Nickname Is The Get Hitman Not The Hitman

For me, the dream fight would be against Morales at lightweight, with Castillo in a rematch coming a close second. Why Morales ahead of Castillo you ask? Because I think that fight has the potential to be a fight of the year type battle, except with about half of the risk that would be involved in a Castillo fight (a quarter of the risk if it goes off at lightweight). I am not saying that Castillo would not be able to succeed up a Jr. Welter, but I certainly dont want his first fight there to be with the very top of the division (which the winner of Tzsyu/Hatton would certainly be.)
      he is leaving so he doesnt have to fight castillo

        Funny post,

        But lets not jump into conclusion about who/what as the Tszyu / Hatton fight did not happen just yet.

          I'm surprised Corrales does not want the winner of Mayweather / Gatti?
          Why not try the re-match? It would be a much bigger publicity fight for him in US.

            mayweather doesnt want the fight. not big enough money there iv'e read in articles. on a level playing field this time around corrales would be dangerous to pbf's carreer.

              yeah, floyd knows if him and kostya get through with the belts, the unification mayweather/tzsyu bout will be a big payday, and a much anticipated fight...kostya wants this fight for p4p rights, and floyd wants this fight for the same reason and to avenge the loss of roger to kostya....by the way ,if you want to see 12 good rounds from a young pre-title kostya and a great veteran in roger mayweather, watch that fight, and the respect shown by both after the bout...kostya is one of the few fighters floyd respects...should be great if it happens.

                OK, you say he is ducking Castillo by fighting Kostya Tzsyu. I don't know if that particular argument makes sense seeing as how Tzsyu is much more of a threat then Castillo is. He is ducking the guy he knocked out to fight the guy that would be the favorite to knock him out? I can't say that I agree, if he is fighting Kostya then it is because he is getting the most money to fight Kostya.

                  it was a joke..but anyway i think castillo gives corrales the toughtest fight..with tsyzu might ko corrales but he wont punish him for 10 rounds like castillo did

                    goosen made corrales fight inside and go toe to toe with castillo. and he barely won. he was lucky. i believe that second time around corrales will throw more jabs from the outside to set up his long distance rights mixed in with less toe to toe action and win this rematch in a much easier way.

                    super zab please answer this question. no one has answered this question of mine in previous posts. after castillo flattened corrales for the second time in that round and reaped the benefits of a long rest why didn't he jump on corrales when the fight resumed? he's always done that in the past. was castillo hurt??

                    after father tszyu swells up son hattons head to the size of a medium pumkin and the homeboy ref has to stop it,then tszyu will hopefully contend to corrales.

                    tszyu will be a much harder fight for corrales. tsyus' more skillfull and intelligent than castillo. i believe tszyu has slightly more power than castillo. if only because tszyus power shots are more well placed and diliberate than castillos freewheeling massive amounts. corrales fighting at 140+ could show up fightnite at 150+. his power will be inhanced. since his style don't dwell on speed the extra weight will be beneficial. tszyu's 67" reach may be a disadvantage for him in this one. but tszyus so intelligent and focused and makes on the spot adjustments. corrales will be a dangerous opponent and can change tszyus carreer.

                      if tszyu gets through hatton, which he should fairly easily, then its mayweather i think, corrales aint gunna bring the money, and i think kostya will finish him early anyway, mayweather for all the belts, then step up and get judah, if zab wants it......big if.....
