    Floyd is something else.

    When I first saw him box, I was instantly sold longterm. He kept proving me right until the day he quit boxing.

    I like Castillo too, a stand up guy, but he's a footnote to boxing history. He'll be more remembered as a sparring partner to Chavez than Floyd's biggest win. To me, Immanuel Burton was Floyd's toughest fight, a fight Floyd needed to dig really deep. Maidana and Castillo don't qualify.

    I'm more impressed in the display of boxing art and science than a brawl and face first stuff like GGG (the topic starter's favorite fighter). Floyd was both the artist and scientist.

    Floyd is among the three best known boxers ever: Ali, Tyson, Floyd. Deal with it.

      He was gonna rematch Manny till he made all those excuses
      Lmfao what!?
      Froid was happy as hell with the post fight reaction from the fans. They were cheering which he doesnt get often so thats why he took it cause he thought it would mean popularity and more ppv sales

        But floyd doesnt consider ali or tyson as one of the best so your opinion is meaningless. Deal with it

          Floyd Castillo was a good fight the first time, and Castillo won that bout.

            To be fair, I didn't see the robbery in the first fight that all the haters claim took place.

              Both fights were fairly similar, with the difference being that Castillo was better in the championship rounds of the first fight while Mayweather was better in the championship rounds of the second fight. Both were good, competitive fights.

              Castillo was a good ****ing fighter, man.

                Floyd is amazing to watch at times, but highly disagree. Not many, if any, people include Mayweather in their top GOAT list. He’s definitely top 10-20.
                Castillo did beat him first time around though.

                  It's kind of ridiculous to claim Mayweather didn't need to dig deep against Castillo or Maidana. That's just not reality at all.

                    There are no similarities between those two fights at all. You must not have actually watched them.
