jim gray is a little bitch. did you seen at the end of the fight, he was totally ruining the moment. castillo just pulled off tha biggest win of his carrer with a perfect punch, and jim was talking smack. asking him about tha weight, if he was embarresed, was it a advantage. when he should have been asking him about the fight, how well he did, who hes fighting next ect...
did any of you feel this way that jim was discrediting what castillo did?
Well, hes a bad puppet if hes just following orders.
Read my post in Jim Grey or Larry Merchant. I mentioned how I believe Jim Gray is being told to ask these questions through his ear piece by the Showtime producers. I don't think it's his fault although if not, then fuck him. The mood definitely got killed with his nonstop nagging on Castillo about the weight and on Corrales if he had any excuses. The guy said he got hit with a good shot, bottom line, no excuses. How many times you can hear a fighter give the other fighter the credit with no excuses? Back off already Jim!

Castillo admitted to weighing 142 the day of the weigh-in. How can you give him credit for the victory yesterday? As you go up in weight, you can take more punishment and you gain a bigger punch if you're a huge guy like Castillo.
kickbak wetbak diego lost, it aint tha end of the world. theres gona be a trilogy dogg. diego just got caught dam good, lost to the better fighter.
I dislike the way he continually asks the same question, even when it is apparent that the interviewee isn't going the answer the question. When he kept asking the same question to Corrales, I was having flashbacks to that time he wouldn't stop asking Pete Rose about his gambling accusations. For me, the best interview that Grey has done is the time James Toney slapped the microphone from his hand. ;)
edit Grey didn't discredit Castillo, in my opinion. He only discredits himself. Too bad about that guy. He seems a very intelligent person so it is distasteful to me when he tries to dig up "dirt" in his interviews, when he could just as well play it straight up. Maybe the higher ups want him to do that to boost future ratings or something?

He did his job those were issues at hand but he asked Corrales far to many times to make an excuse after Corrales told him numerous times it did not matter.
yeah f**k him..and i mean that sh*t..gave castillo no credit. Castillo landed a perfect shot on Corrales (no cheating there unless castill stopped time to see where he was gonna hit) to ko him and got no credit by those showtime f**kers. Jim Grey is a dick for that,come on respect these two who just gave you guys the best ppv you have had in hella long...or ever.
