    I hesitated to comment at first because of the 'GREAT' label you put on the thread...

    I am a Floyd fan and would have liked to have seen him fight Cotto (and still would). But Cotto also never called Floyd out.

    Manny Pacman: Not going into whose at fault. Just want to see that fight before both are too old.

    Would like to see him challenge Martinez for the MW strap...that would be interesting...

    Other than that i cant think of anybody.

                  And Spadafora before injury.

                  Cotto and Margarito were also "great fighters" at the time.
                  In hindsight, it doesn't bother me tho.

                    and you have to go with Casamayor and Margarito

                    Casamayor got robbed heavy against Castillo,he won like 10 rounds and lost SD,it was ridicilous!
