I think Mosely could give Mayweather his toughest fight if they could make that match.

Castillo got it right in their first fight by going to the body rather than the head when Floyd was againsed the ropes (I had Castillo winning by two). Floyd goes to the ropes too much, yet DLH was trying to take his head off everytime rather than work the body.
I think De La Hoya should wear shorts with $ on them in the rematch. Might distract Floyd somewhat

Sometimes I think he tries to be to defensive when he should be trying to put some distance on the scorecards. Might be his chin but I haven't seen him really take alot of shots to find out.

i know everyone wil jump all over me but i thought castillo won the first fight and de la hoya won the fight aswell. i think if floyd jumped in with margarito or cotto there relentless pressure would be too much for him - especially margarito who can seemingly walk through knock out shot after knock out shot.
First off theres couple of things wrong with this statement, first i really don't know how you had ODLH winning against Mayweather, i mean its obvious Mayweather dominated later rounds from technical point of view, so how could you have ODLH winning after 9 rounds by such a wide margin ?? is beyond me, Mayweather landed sharper cleaner blows where as most of ODLH's punches hit arms, gloves, shoulders. Secondly Cotto isn't relentless pressure fighter he is a patient aggressive fighter just like Castillo was patient against Mayweather picking his shots. Thirdly i don't care how good of a chin Margarito has you can't just expect to walk through Mayweather's shots, and even if he does Mayweather will out manoeuvre Margarito.
The Castillo fight was closer than the ODLH one. I don't think Castillo had Mayweather figured out. I honestly believe Mayweather's torn rotator cuff played a massive part in his style that night and Castillo, to his credit, made the perfect adjustments.
See the rematch..a fully fit PBF handled him just how he was supposed to.
Thats the same shit they said before the Hatton DLH fight. Hell some fools even said it before the Gatti fight. It's not that simple to put pressure on PBF. Pressure may be the way to beat him but it's clearly not a simple task. These guys applied pressure and still loss.
