    If Castillo .. who was the best LW of his era .. is borderline HOF, then what hope do Cotto, Margarito, Martinez, Williams and Clottey have of getting into the HOF?

    If Castillo is a borderline, then the other guys are no hopers.

    • Coralles is not really a HOF level fighter. He had a great fight with Castillo but that's only one night.

      Hatton is an English Bum.

      JMM was 20 pounds out of his natural class.

      Mosley was shot to bits.

      Oscar was old.

      Mayweather's best win to this point is probably Ortiz.

        not because of their resume but because of people's memories of their fight against each other.

        and also corrales dying young will help him of course.
        crazy criteria to get in dont you think?

        mcguigan's entry was really a harbinger of some sort really...

              I guess people just forget that Genaro was the #1 SFW in the world when Floyd beat him, Corrales #5 P4P, Castillo is the best LW if his era, Hatton was #8 P4P, Mosley had KO'd Margarito and Mayorga prior to fighting Floyd. Mosley was past his prime, but he could have gotten it earlier if his tooth didn't hurt, not Floyd's fault. Floyd still beat him coming off impressive wins and when he was one of the Top 2-3 WW in the world at that time.

              Corrales and Castillo's best wins are at least equal to Tszyu's, if not better. And Hatton an Genaro's resume's are better than Mitchell's and McGuigan's, by far.

                It was a good win for ricky. Before you talk about it being very good or great, maybe you should consider zoo's recent activIty and injuries before that fight.

                I know people really dont know shi t when they start quoting "mythical pfp rankings.

                Zoo was a pfp fighter for a good minute amd one of my faves but he was banged up and very inactive.

                Hatton's other wins pale in comparisOn. Judah was pretty much the hottest fighter in boxing when zoo made him do the funky chicken.

                  Agreed. If cotto somehow beats floyd, he gets in.no fookin way those other guys get in. And castillo is ARGUABLY the best of his era

                    Judah was NOT the hottest fighter. He had gotten dropped just before fighting KT. It's not like he looked unbeatable before getting in there. Mosley or Tito was the hottest fighter at that point IMO

                      For example, one could argue that floyd was the hest of that era, amongst others.
