Yeah, would be interesting to watch! Although latest news, it aint happennig, Mayweather demanded 2 weigh ins and one on the day of the fight! Unusual demand and one Winky thinks will leave him too drained! Negotiations off!

Have to totally disagree with you regarding Felix Sturm. He is a good fighter with tight defense and one hell of a jab. I'll admit he lacks power but he is technical as is Winky Wright. I give Felix a lot of credit for fighting a tough fight against Oscar. Most decent middle weights wouldn't have beaten Oscar, as it took one of the best of all time (Bernard Hopkins) to do it. And even he didn't shut down Oscar as I believe althought losing, Oscar was still in the fight before being ko'd.

Yeah that whole talk about Mayweather stepping up to fight Winky must have just been for attention. I read the article and I had to re-read it thinking there was a misprint lol I'd like to see Floyd clean out his division before even thinking of doing something remarkable like that. There are great fights to be made and he is at the perfect weight for them.

Corrales is fighting Castillo again in the fall, what does everyone think will be the outcome this time? If I were Corrales I would have never taken this fight again. He went through hell and won, there is no reason to do this again.


Mayweather is my pick for best P4P right now.

Cheers Crowes! Oh well, at least some of us still prowl the boards, even if it is just the anything else section!

Jayer, Sturm is a good middle, dont get me wrong. I just dont see him in the league of Soliman, Ikeke and Taylor right now! Sturm is only decent because the middle division is so very poor and has been for a long long time now!

Mayweather has some great fights to be made at his weight, I agree! Although a step up against Zab would make for a blast of a fight! A chess match with power added to it, dont see that very often! Could be a classic like Leonard-Hearns 1!!!

I picked Castillo to beat Coralles, and I will pick him again! (although given, Coralles has power to stop ANYONE at his weight)! Although, much as before, I hope Coralles wins this one! A rematch against PBF could be awesome!
