I mean, here we have Chico basically done and found a way to actually stop Castillo. It was just unbelievable to say the least. That was the type of fight where you KNEW neither guy would ever be the same. They both dissed out and took so much punishment man. I mean, there wasn't a moment where we didn't get action from those guys. On another note, I remember when I read at the bottom of the screen of ESPN when they said Chico died, sad moment man. I miss that guy. Glad we could rap a bit, sir.
    What I bolded Coach. Is 100% times a Billie, how I feel bruh. That fight is still on my DVR(Thanks to ESPN Classics). I also have Chico's last fight against Clottey as well. It pains me to even watch that fight, cause you could see that it just wasn't Chico, ya know? I get pissed about Chico/JLC II because of JLC not comin in at weight. I wont even watch that fight cause I feel like he cheated Chico.

      Floyd's win was more impressive, he beat a bigger, stronger, undefeated opponent. Floyd's performance was artistic mastery. Pac's fight with MAB was messy, sloppy, and MAN was not unbeatable.

          No offense to Diego Corrales (may he RIP), but in this case, he's a borderline HOFer, where as MAB is a first ballot HOFer, perennial top 5 P4Per, and 1 of the 100 ATGs. You can argue about your perception of the undefeated and prime, etc., but it doesn't matter when Barrera is as close to prime as he was.

          Mayweather shutting Chico out en route to a stoppage was a very impressive performance, but Pacquiao shutting Barrera down is even moreso.

            So i still see you don't like to read posts. I stated numerous times that i didn't pick Corales because he was unbeaten, but because he was the fresher fighter\in his peak, and brought up the facts about the surgery (and ALL of Barrera's past wars) on my point about his physical wear and tear. Its ok though Mr. "i'd rather take punches to the head than the knee", i was done with the debate after that statement.

                It's not about which win was greater, it's about which win was more impressive performance wise, damn learn reading comprehension.
