Hmm Good matchup. Roger is clearly the better boxer, but if Chico can make this a dog fight he gets the better of it. I usually favor the better technican but this one is hard to call, at least for me.
This is a pretty good matchup. I think Corrales gets outboxed and outslicked early, but gets to Roger and takes him out in the 5th or 6th.
I think Diego could take Roger's punch. On the other hand, once Roger faded a bit by the 6th or 7th, he would easily crumble under Diego's power.
Roger would have won Mr Universe if it weren't for his legs. Its hard not to see him getting hurt and acting like a spider that fell into a vat of wine.
disagree completely far lesser hitters than Roger Mayweather hurt Corrales badly Joel Casamayor turned Corrales from Hunter into Hunted
BUT...acelino Frietas threw everything including the kitchen sink at Corrales and Chico kept on coming. Frietas hit harder than both Casamayor and Roger Mayweather.
Frietas did nothing of the sort (did you see that fight?) he essentially tried to "box" Corrales and landed the occassional, eye-catching arm punch and his power was IMMENSELY overrated... who are these good fighters he knocked out? where are they? he DID NOT hit harder than the 130 pound Roger Mayweather, not on your life furthermore, he had zero of Mayweather's skills
I favour Corrales in about eight exciting rounds, but I figured there'd be more support here for Mayweather. It's plenty debatable.
