I've always rated Castillo highly, he's one of those Mexicans who decided to straight into the pros & bar the losses that have come as he has fought past his prime, I think he is a HoFer, not a first ballot, but I think he's worthy. His record would also look different if he didn't cut so easy early in his career.
Corrales I think is a great, although Pac, MAB & Morales come close, I don't think there's another fighter who's been in so many exciting fights, & the weight-drained thing was crap, he weighed in like 10lbs more than Floyd on fight night.
Baldomir was a poor titlist, but the fact was he was the Proper Welterweight champion & whilst he's no great, I'm not sure he is a million miles much worse than some of the guys who've been P4P worthy in recent years (well Margarito & Hatton), but still he is no more than a C-level fighter
Agreed on Zab, he never failed to falter when in the super-fights & the Mayweather fight was no exception although I never get the 'Zab was winning the first 6 rounds' stuff I hear, usually from new posters or those with a Floyd-hate-fetish.
His best stuff was always at 130 though, his wins over Hernandez, Chavez & Manfredy are possibly his finest wins for me.
Anyway, like you say, you can do it for any fighter if you have the agenda, although I find it funny that people seem to love doing it with Floyd & Manny who are the 2 finest fighters of this generation. If they're crap, what does that say about boxing as a sport?? |
With out meaning to, you've probably pointed out something that a lot of people are thinking: This sport has BIG problems.

PAC not only defeating the former champions in the division but beating them badly or by knocking them out. For me it's a very impressive accomplishment.
PAC's lineal titles and division titles:
*RING Light Welterweight (140 lbs.) - LINEAL TITLE, KO'ed Ricky Hatton cold in the 2nd.
*WBC Lightweight (135 lbs.) - KO'ed David Diaz in the 9th.
*RING Super Featherweight (130 lbs.) - LINEAL TITLE, Split decision win over Juan Manuel Marquez.
*RING Featherweight (126 lbs.) - LINEAL TITLE, KO'ed Marco Antonio Barrera in the 11th.
*IBF Super Bantamweight (122 lbs.) - KO'ed Lehlohonolo Ledwaba in the 6th.
*WBC Flyweight (112 lbs.) - LINEAL TITLE, KO'ed Chatchai Sasakul in the 8th.  | I agree to you...  The people who say the Pacquiao is not great is called an "IDIOT" or don't know boxing.
Pacquiao is going for his 7th division title and maybe 5th lineal title. Why? Miguel Cotto just beat Shane Mosley.  |
He is the greatest what? His career still has time before he can be called the greatest of all time, right now he is the best P4P but that can change with one fight....
I think you are throwing the word "Greatest" around a bit too freely.....
You do realize that you have the trailer park of Sig's?   |
