Did MouthPiece Trick Save Chico?

the mouthpiece trick helped him of course, but his heart won the fight. This was a great fight by both guys. No contoversies here. The ref took points away from Diego for the mp trick, and Chico went out and ko'ed Castillo. I hope people don't start fishing for excuses and conspiracy theories with this fight. Let's just enjoy a great fight between two true champs and look forward to the rematch. Brilliantly said! Couldnt have said it better myself. You gotta give both fighters all the credit in the world Chico took a chance for all his fans and gave them a beautiful brawl fighting Castillo inside when he could of scored easier fighting him from the outside. Castillo got a couple of low blows in and got proper warning from the ref, Chico used the mouthpiece trick and got the proper point deduction.....it was obviously a war so you cant say Chico took the bitch way out. And if youre saying Chico wont give him the rematch(which hopefully he will) you cant really blame him he was supposed to get Castillo when Casamayor got him and he took this fight for shity pay(for his stature of recognition) I respect Chico all the way, he took this fight for the fans, Castillos and his own(thank you Chico and Castillo!)If youre a true Castillo fan you should be happy the ref stopped the fight(He would of done the same for Chico), one more punch could of killed or seriously injured him and we wouldnt have been able to be blessed with another fight from this true champion. I take my hat off to both fighters and thank them for the best fight Ive ever seen, they both have all my respect.

DLT come on. Im as big a fan as you are. Making two excuse threads is lame man. Just wait for the rematch. Never pay again for live sex! | Hot girls doing naughty stuff for free! | Chat for free!

yeah not taking anything away from it it was still a good fight it just seemed liek it should have ended differently or atleast have let castillo hit the canvas and see if he could not have continued. I dont think the rematch will be as good since now they both know they cna hurt each other bad,but it will be great anyway. Best fight since Gatti-Ward...both Warriors..,there fans have nothing to be ashamed of.

On the 2nd knockdown, the ref counted to 9 & gave a point deduction for spitting out the mouthpiece. i just saw the fight again & Chico had an extra 20-25 seconds, not including the 9 seconds counted for the knockdown. forget all the other times because he was still alright but the last time was different. On that last knock down he was really hurt but those extra few seconds gave him some time and he seemed like he was alright after that. I could be wrong but I actually think that those 15 seconds or so was the difference in this fight because if he wouldve went straight back in after that last knock down I think Castillo may have dropped him again and the ref wouldve stopped it. Hard to tell though

I see Castillo fans are really upset and makin laughable excuses. Great fight, Corrales deserved the stoppage.

In the rematch, Corrales better listen to his trainer and box. That inside fighting against Castillo was risky. I agree, Everytime he fought Castillo on thr outside he would catch him lovely. I didn't understand why he was deciding to fight on the inside.

smart was spitting it out when he got wobbled...smart may have the first KD....reaching into his mouth making it obvious he was takign it out and saying it fell by accident when we see him let go is acting liek a Bitch..smart ok..call i what u want..but it was still the bitch way out. just like Dlh running from tito,just like freitas quitting etc... Corrales will be owned in the rematch and before u say its cuz i am mexican (i am not so yeah) dude dont use that excuse with me..its just the truth...smart yes...but iwas was acting like a lil-bitch. LOL. I don't think it's as bitchy as Freitas quitting. You're really reaching with that sore-loser comment. If Castillo was so great, he wouldn't have any problem with it. Please don't try to make excuses. It doesn't make Castillo look bad, he is a true warrior. However, it makes you look like a sore-ass loser who probably has never even been in a fight and doesn't know what it feels like to be hurt. Castillo lost to the smarter, more powerful fighter. Bring on the rematch!! IMO Chico fought a bad fight in that he did not fight from the outside like he is best at. He fought Castillo's fight and still knocked him out. Nuff said.

What stinks is that Corrales will not give Castillo a rematch.It took too much negotiations for Corrales to fight Castillo and I'll bet he will never fight him again...He got a lucky punch and a ref that look out for him throughout the fight,,,, Lucky punch?? WTF are you talking about? When it coms to boxing there's no think as a lucky punch, That what makes boxing such a great sport. 1 Punch can make the difference in a fight. That would be real disrespectful if you say that Corrales laned a lucky punch. He hurted Castillo several times late in the rounds with a punch.

Hard to tell though he learned that one from freitas

I don't really want to say anything bad about either fighter but Corrales seemed like he didn't really want to go at it again. LOL, Castillo got mauled at the end and Chico is the one that doesn't want a rematch? Castillo needs to go get his brain examined before any rematch to make sure he's safe to fight.

that was an amazing fight. too bad there has to be questions about the mouth piece, but maybe thats what will bring us a rematch.

He took a point from Corrales for spitting out his mouthpiece a second time. After two knockdowns, that made it a 3 point round in favor of Castillo. The ref didn't know Chico was going to kick the shit out of Castillo after he got up. I'm sure he thought it was almost over just like the Castillo nuthuggers.

If Corrales had the mindset to drop the mouthpeice, then he was not that hurt, maybe stunned. He did do it on purpose, but that meant he knew what he was doing. Castillo was out of the building when he was hurt. Trinidad has been known to throw low blows when he has been hurt, (against Vargas), Barrera threw a lunging headbut against Pacquiao, those fouls are worse than what Corrales did. It was Castillo's fault for coming in and allowing Corrales to nail him with 4 left hooks. Castillo should have been a bit more cautious when trying to close the the show. A hurt fighter is a dangerous fighter.

heel yeah he acted like a bitch doing that. Next time (rematch) i see Castillo ko'ing him,mouth piece or not. It gave him extra seconds to rest. He acted like a bitch?? What would you have done. That's what you call ring savvy. Freitas did the same shit against him. You can't say he's a bitch until you see yourself in the same predicament. Keep the name calling at a minimum. Whose to say that Castillo wouldn't have done the same.

the mouthpiece trick definitely saved Corrales. He needed the extra time to recover from the first knockdown. A rematch is in order for this one

What a little bitch, throwing out his mouth pice twice. The ref should have stoped the fight after he through out his mouth piece for the second time. Those extra seconds robbed Castillo. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~This is fucken bulls**t~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Castillo will win in a rematch. This is fight of the year hands down.

It helped him. You gotta give credit to Chico's corner too, they knew what the score was... Weeks kept going "come on! come on! put it in!!" and the corner was taking their sweet ass time. Very smart.
