          Marquez had to reach upward to hit Floyd.

              Well he is a HOF fighter so his boxing resume better be damn good... but his record isn't as inpectable as you make it out to be. He has picked and choose who he fights later on in his career which has left much to be desired at times.

                Corrales was undefeated, you can't get more grade A than that. Then he went on to become champion.

                Castillo was Ring champion at 135 when Floyd beat him. Then Floyd defended it against him again and beat him again. If Castillo was not a grade A boxer when Floyd beat him, then how did Castillo managed to become The Ring champion at 135 once again after the rematch? So he was The Ring champion before and after Floyd neat him, you have to be a pretty good fighter to do that, and even a better fighter to beat some one like that Castillo at the time.


                Okay at 140 he didn't fight any grade A fighters, i'll give you 140. Corley, that version, was still a pretty tough southpaw with only 2 losses at the time.

                147, he fought a pretty okay B fighter in Judah at the time, Baldomir was a fight the fans were asking for and saying Mayweather was scared of him. Mosley was a grade A fighter because he was the Lineal WW champion.

                Hatton was a grade A fighter or else he wouldn't have been undefeated coming in to the fight, and only have 1 loss coming in to the Pacquiao fight.

                De La Hoya was a grade A fighter who only losses to other A+ fighters[like Hatton he only lost to two other A+ fighters]. When Mosley beat DLH, Mosley was a A+ fighter, Hopkins was a A+ fighter, Mayweather is an A+ fighter, Pacquiao is an A+ fighter, Sturm was an A+ fighter.

                  delahoya was an A fighter when floyd fought him? based on his beatdown of mayorga? so cotto must be an A+ because he just beat foreman and mayorga.

                    De La Hoya stopped a 5 years younger, fresher, Ricardo Mayorga in 6, while Cotto had a tough time taking out a 40 year old, shot, way past it, Ricardo Mayorga in 12 rounds, 5 yeas later.

                    Yeah, nice comparison.

                    De La Hoya would be favored against almost anybody at 147-154 at that time, with probably only Forrest, Mayweather and Wright having the best chance to beat him. The DLH of May 2007, at 154, would have beaten Cotto, Margarito, Williams, any one not named Mayweather, Forrest, or Wright, who at the time were all considered A+ fighters, and Mayweather still is.

                    Come on man why even bring Foreman in the discussion.

                      So Corrales and Castillo weren't grade A fighters when Floyd fought them?
