    and one of those losses was out of his weight class at 135

        It was a very good win. Though I feel his Jesus Chavez win is his most underrated. Chavez went on to win the superfeatherweight title and win the lightweight title after the loss. Plus He really brought it to floyd and made him work hard. Floyd stood toe to toe with him and retired him on his stool. Great win for Floyd.

            The fight itself is more underrated than the W.

                  I have him easily in the top 3 of Floyd wins. I got him at #2 because, of how early in his pro career Floyd fought him. And, then the way he beat him pretty good.

                  1. Corrales
                  2. Chicanito
                  3. Castillo II
                  4. Shane
                  5. Manfreddy

                  I can't make up my mind with Shane and Castillo. Is really a draw. I go with Castillo cuz he was in his prime and what he accomplish after Floyd beat him.
                  castillo was one of the greatest lightweights of his era, look at that resume...impressive.

                  show some love to hatton man

                  Floyds top 10 wins in my opinion are:

                  1. diego corrales (#1 at 130 pounds, #5 p4p, favourite to beat floyd)

                  2. jose luis castillo (#1 at 135 pounds)

                  3. genaro hernandez (#1 at 130 pounds, undefeated at 130 pounds, long streak of title defenses at 130 pounds)

                  4. shane mosley (#1 at 147 pounds, #3 p4p)

                  5. ricky hatton (undefeated, #8 p4p)

                  6. oscar de la hoya (#2 at 154 pounds but game/not weight drained and a very good name)

                  7. zab judah (#3 at 147 because he lost to baldomir, but judah was more game and competitive, fought well until floyd figured him out, former undisputed welterweight champion)

                  8. carlos baldomir (like it or not linear champ at welterweight..the man at 147.. with wins over clottey,judah,gatti)

                  9. juan manuel marquez (#2 p4p)

                  10. emanuel augustus (gave mayweather a very tough fight and broke his nose)

                  out of the top 10 but other wins: angel manfredy, jesus chavez, arturo gatti, carlos hernandez.

                      I've seen his fights against Oscar, Azumah Nelson (who was 40 years old at the time), and Floyd.

                      I don't think he ws a great champion. A decent, consistant fighter with alot of fans.
