Is Floyd's best win tainted. Was Corrales really dehydrated and weak in the fight

      That's one of my pet peeves about boxing fans. Why would Mayweather fight a rematch with a guy he obliterated? It's like people who thought Ali should have rematched Foreman, why? He outclassed, humiliated, and knocked him out.

      People often think there should be rematches of fights that were one sided and shouldn't have rematches.

        Floyd didn't ask Chico to come in at 125...for a unification title fight at 130 lol.

            LOL yeah Corrales was weight-drained which is why he stayed at that weight years later fought 2 matches with Casamayor for a title(rematch). Idiots, the late great Corrales didn't make excuses post fight why should you? Listen to his interview with Larry Merchant - he knew Floyd was too good for him. These *******s are hilarious, great logic employed - Hey I'm having serious trouble making this weight but hey lets wait a year or two and fight for a title against a very good fighter at the same weight class people were speculating I was having trouble at!

            Floyd should get 100% credit, it was a masterful performance, just as Pac should get 100% credit for the Morales trilogy and Barrera.

              Yeah try to rationalize with what happened 2 years later to the struggles that Chico had during the weigh-in. That makes sense..

                No it would have been a hoe move if Floyd gave somebody he dominated a rematch. You know that's something that Oscar would do, like when he gave a shot to **** JCC a rematch after dominating him.

                When Floyd won a very disputable decision he gave an immediate rematch to Castillo. That's what true warriors and champs do. Again not like Oscar, who has won 3 very disputable decisions and never gave Whitaker, Quartey, or Sturm a rematch. What a hoe that cross dressing **** is.

                  I don't understand how it is possible for a fighter to be weight drained at 130. Yet 3 years later after doing a year in jail have his best win at 130 but not be weight drain then.

                  How's that possible? Do these ****** ass posters not understand what weight drain means?

                    He had 2 years to re-adjust his body down at a lower weight. Could be he was malnourished after his stint in prison.

                    The fact is it has nothing to do with what transpired 2 years back when it was clear that he was having problems making weight..

                    Plus I thought you are not goin to be responding to this thread anymore.

                      Chico said he didn't have problems making 130. Just fans like you think he did because you hate Floyd so much.
