Floyd called him and Casamayor out at the time. Neither bothered to reply.Quote:

Casamayor is the one who could have given Floyd problems. He was a mean, crafty bastard. Very sure of himself too.
Well people forget that before all this Money Mayweather stuff, Floyd was one of the biggest boogeymen in boxing: an ultra talented virtuoso who could not yet draw flies to shit. Floyd was one of the biggest high risk/low reward threats in boxing, and as such higher profile guys like Frietas, Casamayor, Naseem Hamed (all of whom Floyd called out publicly) wouldn't come near him.Quote:

Then of course he famously bitched out and quit when guys like Corrales and Juan Diaz turned up the heat on him.
Floyd would have wiped the floor the with him. Frietas would have been lucky to go the distance with 2001 Mayweather.
[QUOTE=Hulk;1214595]Meh. Casamayor was solid but we saw how much trouble he had with Frietas. Acelino was completely gassed and fighting to survive for the last half of the fight and Casamyor couldn't do shit to him.Quote:

Casamayor and Frietas called Mayweather out as well. As did Steve Johnson at lightweight. So who's fault is it the fights didn't happen?Quote:

Casa would have gave him shitload of problems..
