Who was the best lightweight of the last decade?

[jrosales13]

Joel Casamayor IMO. He beat Freitas (IMO), beat Corrales, Campbell, JLC (IMO) and Michael Katsidis.

Well the Freitas fight was at 130 not 135

[Horus]

But, you didn't mention why he should higher than flash or Arguello at 130?

Like I have him in the top 3 easily and no problem with you having him at #1 at 130. Personally I have him #2 behind Arguello and right in front of Flash Elorde(Filipino great BTW if you didn't know).

But, again Flash, Arguello, and, Floyd has a case as the G.O.A.T in that weight-class. Any order you want to put him is fine by me though

iF YOU READ THAT WHOLE THREAD YOU WILL FIND MY ANSWERS TO ALL THOSE QUESTIONS ABOUT ARGUELLO AND ETC.

Personally Castillo put in more work at 135. I have him as the best LW of the decade...

Lets compare Floyd to Castillo

Floyd- Castillo(2x), Sosa, Ndou, Augustus.

Castillo- J Diaz, Johnston, Baza, Casamayor, Lazcano, Paez, Quinonez.

Castillo has the better body of work at 135.

so even though floyd beat him twice you have castillo ahead?

Juan Manuel marquez

I see what you mean but he was so damn god at that weight. I do wish he wouldve stuck around longer though.

If he would of, he could of done something special

If he would of, he could of done something special

But you know Floyd....He's all bout the bling-bling.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

But you know Floyd....He's all bout the bling-bling.

We have ODH to blame for Floyd not at 135 pounds.

iF YOU READ THAT WHOLE THREAD YOU WILL FIND MY ANSWERS TO ALL THOSE QUESTIONS ABOUT ARGUELLO AND ETC.

Can you break it down for me?

Because, from what I got is that you think he would beat Arguello in a fantasy H2H match up? Is that the only reason why?

And, I also didn't see you mention Flash...

Only 3 people have the case as the greatest at 130. Floyd, Arguello, and Flash. All 3 of them have a case there is no clear #1 of all time in that weight-class.

[jrosales13]

so even though floyd beat him twice you have castillo ahead?

Right, cuz is about body of work not H2H match up...

Saddler beat Pep 3 times at featherweight. Do you rank Saddler higher than Pep as a featherweight? Well do you?

[jrosales13]

We have ODH to blame for Floyd not at 135 pounds.

Just like we have him to blame for Pac not being at 135 pounds longer.
