J.L. Castillo vs JMM at 135

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I think it was his speed, power and combinations more than his chin, don't you? Marquez didn't find Pacs chin to be much of a problem at all. He hit it a lot. It was getting hit back that seemed to be the trouble.

As to the thread, it's a hard fight. I think Marquez would do better against Castillo's style than the other way around, but Castillo has the obvious size advantage and his best years were at 135 while Marquez' were at 126. I think I may still just take Marquez in a fight that could have gone either way....though historically that has usually meant Marquez would lose it.

Yes, true, but manny showed a great chin and would throw bombs right back after jmm's counter combos,,, guys like diaz and katsisdis couldnt do that because they didnt have a chin the caliber of mannys

Castillo is perfect for Marquez, the younger version of Marquez will counterpunching to death, the new agressive Marquez would have a tough time, but still beats prime Castillo on points
