What were your thoughts of Corrales-Castillo II, was it as good as the first one? I can't really tell because I didn't watch it on tv but live, and I wasn't to close to the ring...
I was VERY dissapointed with Arce-Hussein II...I thought it would've been more competitive...
hmm
The Arce-Hussein fight was a complete disaster, Hussein's corner acted prematurely, Hussein should fire them all.
I agree with everything here. Stoppage in the 1st fight reportedly was ok but this one was falt inexcusable on Jeff Fenech's part.
Castillo-Corrales surprised me in a good way since I'm a big Castillo fan. I knew Jose won the 1st three rounds but I didn't know how long he could keep it up. Great KO but let them have one more fight since ppl are whining about a few pounds of water weight. Corrales was very classy after the fight...

In terms of the Corrales-JLC matchup, what can u say, i know it looks like ur a Diego fan but i wouldnt mind a third fight, both guys are warriors.
Not really, if you'd watch that fight again you'll notice 3 things that led up to a proper stoppage.
#1. Hussein was knocked down multiple before the stoppage.
#2. Arce was connecting with brutal punches, the second knockdown was a devastating knockdown.
#3. hussein was not being offensive in the fight at all, attempting to be defensive, and getting HIT WITH POWER PUNCHES AND THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO ABOUT IT. that warrants a stoppage, you dumb fuck.
damn chico, i thought he was gonna do even better this time around, oh well :( he never really got any big offence going, i think he landed one good punch the entire fight, right hand in round 2. castillo cound'nt miss with his left hook, props to the man.
I expected the Arce/Hussein fight to be more competitive, but I was still expecting Arce to overwelm Hussein again.
The main event was fantastic while it lasted. Both guys went right back at it, add the fact that one of my favorite fighters won.
Agree with you 100%
Its a shame too that JCC Jr is 23-0 and still will go another year on 6 rounders. What a shame.
what do you want him to do? he has no amateur background and is still only 19 years old!
It was an anticlimactic night. Hussy looked like something was wrong from the get go and that fight was over in 2, and Castillo landed the sharper shots and took Corrales out with a dynamite left hook that was a fight ending shot.
That card looked on paper to be one of the best in quite some time and in the end it was fairly uneventfull.
Corrales and Castillo surely will have to give it a 3rd go, because with the weigh in contraversy, it left a lot to be desired.
I think Corrales kills himself to make 135, and it seems increasingly like Castillo never had any intention of making weight, thus not draining himself. I wouldn't be suprised if he went away after his 1st attempt at making weight and had a gatoraid and a protine bar with the way he came back heavier.
Not to take away from what he did in the ring because he blasted Corrales out, but the whole night left something to be desired imo.
doo don't worry cuz Janueary 21 is round ta corner. Well not really, LOL! BUT TIS CARD WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN!
But seriously, here's HOW I SEE IT!

I like Bobby Pacquiao, I tried to get Manny Pacquiao's autograph but he was in a rush, but Bobby still gave the time to take a pic with me...

Agree with you 100%

Arce-Hussein II
I watched the fights at a bar, so I didn't really analyze them in too much depth, but I still enjoyed them. This fight was stopped too quickly imo. Arce was all offence and didn't let Hussein counter punch at all.
I agree with you El_sureño, I was disapointed in this fight. I was expecting a slugfest, but it just came down to Arce applying a lot of pressure and Hussein having no answer for it. It was a great punch though, but I still think Hussein's corner was a little hasty in throwing in the towel. Had the fight gone on, maybe we would have seen more back and forth action and a more exciting fight, but as it is, it was just Arce putting on pressure and it wasen't that great of a fight imo.
Castillo-Corrales II
This fight obviously had everyone excited. The bar was packed and everyone was getting loud and excited for the fight. It started out just like the last one and I thought it was an exciting fight. It didn't have the drama of the last one, and Castillo was landing more often, bigger and cleaner punches. Both guys landed some bombs though and I thought it would be pretty close. However, after the first knockdown, I felt Castillo had a distinct advantage and he would carry it for the rest of the fight.
Corrales still had no answer for Castillo's uppercut (which he didn't use enough imo). But both got a little careless with their defences, which made it great for the fans.
All in all, it was a great night of fights, but Corrales-Castillo wasen't as good as the first one, and Acre-Hussein II left to be desired. If I would have ordered it, I wouldn't have been disapointed. Still, I spend about 30$ and I felt I got my money's worth.
The Arce-Hussein fight was a complete disaster, Hussein's corner acted prematurely, Hussein should fire them all.
In terms of the Corrales-JLC matchup, what can u say, i know it looks like ur a Diego fan but i wouldnt mind a third fight, both guys are warriors.
Yeah! I hella felt for HUssein!
He's prolly in big mental pain because of stupid ass Fenech!
FUCK JEFF FENECH! If he was hurt, let the ref stop it! That pissed the fuck out of me!
You didn't give me a clear answer and the Chico fight mang.
