The type of guy you hear calling Castillo a cheat is the type of guy you know isn't worth a second of your thought when it comes to boxing discussion.

Quoted from the "quick jabs" article.
In addition to Castillo, others must be held accountable for the weigh-in fiasco. This incident also falls on the shoulders of Gary Shaw and Bob Arum in association with the WBC and the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Diego Corrales’ safety was a focal point during the June 2nd fight cancellation. However, the well-being of a fighter who can no longer make the 135-pound weight limit was overlooked.
In light of Jose Luis Castillo’s failure to make weight, let’s look at other disgraceful moments in boxing history:
-Phantom knockouts and fixed fights
-Hitting a fighter with two illegal punches and instigating a 30-man battle royal
-Biting another fighter’s ear off
-Controversial ringside scoring
-Losing a championship bout and allowing the former champion to retain his world title
-Countless number of scorecard discrepancies
-Using banned substances to gain an unfair advantage
-Continuously fouling an opponent and setting off an arena-wide riot
-Stripping a champion of his world title for monetary/political purposes
-Big name promoters bribing sanctioning bodies to manipulate the championship rankings
