    Chico, just like Morales, was a phenomenal boxer when he chose to be.. He could be technical when he wanted to yet he chose to fight because that was who he was.. Fighter first, and boxer second.. U look at his rematch against Casa and there he came in with a plan and outboxed the master boxer in Casa...

    Skillwise, Chico takes a massive **** on Pacman..
    a secret?

    lmfao

    everyone knows chico has good skills.

    you might have guessed that if you paid attention to when i said "he gave away his height and decided to brawl"



    but i'll tell you an ever bigger secret.

    1. chico couldn't have outboxed pacquiao even if he wanted to. he has slow feet.

    2. chico would have fought pac.

      At 130/5 yes, but Chico use to kill himself to make SFW.

      A better and more even fight with Pacquiao would be above 140.

        Pacquiao at 130/135 was not much different at all from what he is today. Watch some of his fights there....he really hasnt changed much.


        Corrales never had the best chin, and his height would only play against him seeing as his body is so big and easy to hit. Pac's speed would definitely be a factor.
        his power was nice of course, and I can see him winning some rounds, but Pacquiao would catch him and the tide would turn instantly.

        PAcquiao would have facial lacerations and take a fair amount of punishment, but I find it pretty clear he would have beaten Corrales.


        now...a prime Castillo vs Pacquiao at 135....I can see Pacquiao losing.

            I think Castillo and Corrales are both kinda overrated because of the romanticism surrounding their fight.

              that's true.

              they're both good fighters though.

              don't think they're quite HOF level but i think their 1st fight "could" get them in.

                well thats not entirely fair. Castillo was one of the better infighters and better lightweights of the last decade or so, and Corrales was fairly impressive in the Casamayor fights...although personally I also find that Casamayor can be overrated by some.

                but I get what you mean

                  Umm are u serious? U must have missed the Floyd/Castillo fight.

                  Only the noobs would romanticize the Chico/Castillo fight.. I mean c'mon, that fight was only 5 years ago.. lolz

                    That may apply for Chico but not for Castillo in my view.
