Comments Thread For: Mosley Rips Mayweather For Not Fighting Pacquiao

[DominiBox]

Well Castillo was not just a come forward fighter. He was skilled come forward fighter with a good game plan. He also was a damn good body puncher.

You don't give skilled counter hell like Floyd and Casamayor just by coming forward man.

At 135 Castillo would have been too much for JMM. Not only did he have skills but he had size and strength over JMM. Imagine the first Diaz fight mixed in with Katsidis X3 and that is what a JMM-Castillo fight would like...Not good for JMM.

Even though P4P JMM is the much better fighter and the more skilled fighter. It just at 135 he wouldn't be able to handle Castillo. Just like Castillo would not have beaten JMM at 126 nor at 130.

So which was a bigger threat, Marquez to Pacquiao, or Castillo to Mayweather ?

Yeah, but.... do you know the difference between proofs and speculations ?? With Mosley we have proofs. With Pacquiao it's just speculation.

Mayweather uses XYLOCAINE.....and thats an illegal substance. So, what is this all integrity B.u.l.l. S.h.i.t... about ??

But, when did the proof come out for Mosley?

Was it when he was working with Balco, doping, or was it after the fact years later?

BOTTOM LINE : The reason Mayweather won't fight

The chicken has Poc poc'd

The chicken wants to wait and hope someone else whips him so he won't get a whuppin !!!!!!!!!!

Now I'm really mad !!!!!!!! haha

Marquez is a counter puncher. Castillo is a foward fighter, perfect to Marquez style.

Instead, Castillo's foward style is very unconfortable to Floyd, cuz it's hard to adjust with a constant pressure. Is a matter of styles.

Marquez gets hit too much and knocked down even easier. Castillo in my opinion would be too heavy handed for Marquez to take punishment. Clearly Marquez became the much better fighter as time passed but at that time? Castillo beats Marquez at 135 (In my opinion).

He was talking about who better around the time Pac fought Marquez and Floyd fought Castillo. I had to compare the Marquez at 130 who fought Pac to the Castillo of 135 who fought Diego because that was around the same time they fought their big fights. In my opinion at the time. Castillo would be my favorite going into the fight.

Well Castillo would have been the favorite because he would of been much bigger than JMM. Fighting at his natural weight-class while JMM would have been fighting at his 3rd weight-class. That is the only reason Castillo would have been favorite not because he was better or more skilled. If they would of fought at 130 around the same time....JMM would of been the favorite over Castillo.

The bold should have been the end of your post. THere is not "but" to it. None of them have ever failed a drug test. So if a man who has drugs in his system can pass the same tests that clean men can pass. How good are those drug tests that these men are taking is the point.

What is not speculation is that the commission based tests aren't worth ****!!!
Go read the rules regarding xylocaine use and get back to me. Now if you can prove he used it outside of the alloted time frame for its use then PBF is cheat.

But either way..... Pacquiao didn't clearly beat Marquez BOTH TIMES. Those wins for Pac are in doubt. Are you seriously going by Harold Lederman's score card? By your logic, Pac got two gifts wins and Floyd earned his second one, showing that Castillo couldn't beat Floyd eventhough he weighed 147 in a Lightweight fight. Nobody is walking around talking about the Castillo rematch because he clearly got beat BUT Pac? Still got questions about his matchups with Marquez.

OUCH

We're talking about around the time when Marquez fought Pac and Castillo fought Corrales. It's only a year apart. Thos were their biggest fights. Put them two together at 135 and Castillo would have beat JMM in my opinion.

Years laters....
Knowing that, just sit and wait. Maybe, just maybe.... that will come to light on day...

For now, just left to speculate.... about Manny's head....Manny's fist's...
Being smaller means you will have the smaller fists ??

Look for Tyson/Hollyfield tale of the tape...and compare.
Look for Lewis/Rahma tale of the tape....and compare.

Maybe you've never said something like that.. but that's *****s statement.

No logic....

So which was a bigger threat, Marquez to Pacquiao, or Castillo to Mayweather ?

To me neither one was the bigger threat...Both were equally a threat going into the fight.

Both Floyd and Pac were the favorite the first time and the 2nd time around.

Floyd going into the first Castillo fight the first time was coming off being dominant at 130. While Castillo was coming off 2 close fights with Stevie Johnston.

Pac going into the first JMM fight was coming off dominant wins over Barrera the king of the division. Was 3 divisional champ a 2 time lineal champ. JMM best win at the time was what? Medina? Gainer? Not impressive.

Floyd gave Castillo an immediate rematch to remove all doubt after coming really close to losing. BTW, Floyd doesn't get enough credit for giving Castillo an immediate rematch.

Pac offered JMM a rematch and JMM turned down the 750k proposal to fight Chris John for 35k. The due to the GBP-TR cold war they couldn't fight, finally when the cold war was settled they fought 4 years later. And, Pac rematch the dude that gave him hell the first time.

Both JMM and Castillo achieved great things after their fights with Pac and Floyd.

So neither was a slouch...Both were equally a threat going into the fights man.
