    Corley was a tough fight for Mayweather. In fact that fight disproves any notion that Mayweather only fights scared.

    The Augustus fight was the only fight I've seen Mayweather looked nervous. He looked lost sitting in his corner right before he went out and got the TKO.

      they left off Emmanuel Augustus and Jesus Chavez which were harder fights than what he had against DLH, Hatton IMO is the last fighter to bring the best out of him

            Jesus Chavez should have been up there, Floyd was down on the cards at the time of the stoppage

              I dont recall the Augustus bout being that difficult for Mayweathr. Ive always thought when Floyd referred to this fight as his "toughest", he meant it was tough to put him away, dude was getn caught clean all night and kept coming. A one sided fight nonetheless in which Floyd was never in trouble...moreso, just another case of "Floyd said"

                As time goes by, more and more people are and will be arguing about the first fight with Castillo and while some fans rabidly try to defend the controversial decision others can use it as an example of how bad judging can preserve an "undefeated" record. However, I have to say that as much as I am convinced Floyd lost his first fight against Castillo, I am also clear that Floyd did the smart thing after he looked for and won without doubts the rematch. And there could have been a second loss in Floyd's record if the referee had disqualified FMJ because his uncle jumped into the ring attempting to harm Zab Judah. I've seen other boxers getting DQ'ed for actions that can be considered minor when comparing to what uncle Roger brought into the ring.

                  Yes and a transvestite ********** at that. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if after Mayweather retires he spends his time doing advertisements for women's clothing.
                  Just for the record, Maidana deserved at least a draw in his first fight with Floyd but the judges couldn't allow that to happen since not giving Floyd a victory would most likely exclude them from judging and cashing in on any future Mayweather fights.
                  Anyone who thinks Floyd got to where he is without taking advantage of the corrupt elements of boxing at his disposal is fooling themselves. I've said it before and I'll say it again, when Floyd says he always finds a way to win inside or outside the ring, people should be able to read between the lines and figure out what that really means. He beat Pacquiao but looked juiced for that fight even if the Pac-Man's performance was a big disappointment.
