Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Diego Corrales for me. Undefeated, prime, and a top 5 p4p fighter at the time when he fought Floyd.

same here. but best exhibition of his skill is with gatti.

i wouldn't mind watching floyd's old fights again, that's for sure.

The Castillo rematch was classy but he took 12 rounds to formulate an effective game plan so I will leave that one.

I think the Corales fight was stunning.

Diego Corrales for me. Undefeated, prime, and a top 5 p4p fighter at the time when he fought Floyd.

Thank the Lord! After the first bunch of posts I had no clue how Corrales wasn't the biggest win. I see Ricky being a big win but Corrales and Floyd was a toss-up at the time.

[Manuel "Chubby" Medina]

Castillo on the 1st fight. Cuz i believe he lost.

Castillo on the 1st fight. Cuz i believe he lost.

Yeah me too. Most times anyway

Hindsight is sweet...have to say Corrales domination waaaay back. More might be said of a victory when that opponent goes on to do big things.

I think I'll take a look at the Castillo & Corrales fights, I was doing the expat thing in those years and didn't get to see those fights. I'm reading some people favor his skill display as being more impressive and others saying his most adverse fight is more impressive.

[Julius Rain]

As much as I wanted Floyd knocked out in this fight I got to say the Diego match. Doesn't matter what excuse Diego may have, Floyd dominated and made him look silly.

[Rustaveli]

Corrales was Floyds best win, rest of his wins are not really that impressive.


Gatti was washed up
Hatton was already beaten in 147 by Colazzo
Marquez came up 2 weight classes and still got cheated in weight at the end,
he Lost to Castillo the first fight convincingly
and Mosley fight all of it looked weird as hell, he did pretty good with DLH though.

[Beanflicker]

never fought anyone in their prime worth a spit

I think you're confusing him with the boxer you took your name from.

Biggest win would have to be Hatton IMO. We all know how Hatton's career went down the shitter after the loss, but at fight time he was undefeated and seemingly at his peak. Not only that, but he was viewed by most as the worst possible matchup for Floyd.
