Cotto, Castillo, Corrales: Who has the better wins?????

Gatti, based on wins and resume, shouldn't get in. I think Hatton should get in before him, based on his Tszyu win alone. Genaro should get in before Gatti as well, was pretty dominant at 130 until he met Floyd in 98'.Comment

Shane's definitely not an ATG.I think Castillo, Corrales, De La Hoya, Marquez, Mosley, and Cottow ill get in the HOF. I really only consider Oscar and Marquez ATG's out of those fighters. Maybe Shane was well, I'd have to think about it more, not really sure.
Hatton....it's 50-50 if he will get in. He may because of his huge popularity, and his win over Tszyu, and being a weight champ. I don't know though.
But yes, Castillo is better than Cotto to me. Cotto can surpass him though if he has a nice run still at 154 in these next 2-3 years. Corrales and Cotto really aren't too far apart in my honest opinion.
Aside from Mosley, Corrales' wins over Castillo-Freitas-Casamayor are possibly better than the rest of Cotto's.
Neither is Oscar.Comment

His run was very good but he was never a top guy at the weight IMO. He looked good beating up Espada however many times he needed to, but when he stepped up he got creamed hard. Not saying Gatti is greater at all, but his impact was certainly greater IMO
and for me that means a lot. I get pretty romantic about boxing

If anyone is consider Castillo to have beaten Mayweather then I can't see how he isn't a first Ballot HOF'er.
I personally felt Mayweather won both fights and I still think Castillo has an argument.
With Mayweather on his resume, he's a First Ballot HOF'er.Comment

Agreed....it's funny how things like this will be forgotten when it's all said and done, but for those who actually got to witness it will know the real story.Comment

He was never the man of the division.His run was very good but he was never a top guy at the weight IMO. He looked good beating up Espada however many times he needed to, but when he stepped up he got creamed hard. Not saying Gatti is greater at all, but his impact was certainly greater IMO

But, he beat a lot of the top WW's and in very impressive fashion.
Obviously when he stepped up at ATG level he was destroyed but that's because he's not an ATG level fighter.
But, he was a very good fighter.Comment
