    Why do people act like Castillo is some tomato can? He's the best lightweight of the last 15 years or so.

      Because Floyd fought him,so of course he can't be that good right

          I'd probably lean towards Whitaker a little but it would be a great matchup. Who would have the higher boxing IQ and be able to solve the other guy's puzzle?

            Apparently so. Castillo's wins over Casamayor and Johnston is better than Whitaker's best win over an old Ramirez. It is what it is.

            and if people really count the first fight as a Floyd loss, than Castillo arguably has a better lightweight resume than Whitaker does, and would be Whitaker's best win there.

              Whitaker in a close decision. His head movement and foot speed would be too much for Floyd to tag him. And Floyd isn't going to chase him around like Oscar did, he'd get picked off at range IMO
              Quit lying. Pernell ONLY has that flashy head movement. Thats all he does. While Floyd's defense is beyond multi dimensional. Sweet Pea is so worried about trying to entertain the crowd with how many shots he can avoid. While Floyd is strictly business and comes to counter everything you do. A fighter like Pea would NEVER beat a fighter like Floyd. Floyd is probably the most multidimensional fighter in the history of boxing. Sweat Pea is just another flashy defensive fighter.

                Whitaker unanimously. There a reason Mayweather does not want to fight left handers and Whitaker would show us why.

                      I said hed beat Chavez.

                      Whitaker isn't a flashy defensive fighter, he has one of the greatest defense to offense games you'll ever see.

                      There are only a handful I'd pick to beat the young Mayweather

                      Mosley
                      Duran
                      Whitaker

                      maybe Ike Williams. Doubtful.
