Castillo couldnt quit...he never really started.
however i will say the bodypunch was the real deal.
review the punch (if you have a copy of the fight) he was hit squarely on the liver. any fighter will go down if you hit the right spot. hatton hit it.
however even if he hadnt, castillo was mentally in the fight and it was very apparent.
had castillo been on his game hatton may not have had a stoppage at all and if he did it would have been around the 9th or 10th round.
castillo is a true warrior...he just had family biz outside of the ring and i think it made all the difference...not to mention all the wars (ie. mayweather, corrales, etc.)
excuses, excuses, Hatton was too young and strong for Castillo
if pacquiao did what he should then he would rematch JMM then fight guzman
they would both beat him in my opinion, good choice pacman
Have you seen a shot of him in y-fronts, I don't think theres anything there
yeh i like him and hes an immense fighter but hes in too deep this time, judah has some stupid losses on his record that came from lack of focus and just being a cock, im hoping a different judah turns up for this fight and if he does, cotto has fucked it.
there are plenty of zab judahs that could turn up to that fight though ... if the showboating prick turns up then cotto has a good chance
remember we have a bet manc
Castillo is underdog because hes moving up in weight,aint getting any younger and looked like shit in his last fight. Hatton will punish him and mayb stop him late. Hatton will be relentless from the get go till the fight is over wether its by the final bell or what
Typical narrow minded reply. You can't blame Lewis for the Tyson he faced, and the bottom line is that Lewis would have fought anyone during his reign. Also, in hindsight it is easy to say that Lacy is 'crap' but as you say he was the supposed 'next big thing' who was going to knock Joe out and the majority bought into it. Calazghe schooled him and plenty still don't give him praise.
he was being sarcastic, as thats the excuse alot of yanks come up with
The only people hyping up Manfredo was Calzaghe, his promoter Frank Warren, and the UK writers. We in America knew he was way out of his league which is why he was such huge underdog in every casino in the country.
Actually you roid monkey I can name a lot of yanks who felt Manfredo would win. wether it was cos He was a yank or weteher they actually believed it
I had a dream that Calzaghe got dropped in the first round, and that Peter was throwing flurries and then backing off, like Leonard used to.. it's just a shame for Manfredo that I dream a load of rubbish.
If this were going to be a war, Calzaghe would be the U.S and Manfredo would be Iraq, that's how one sided it'll be.
So Manfredo would have his moments. Cause U.S aint had it all their way
manfredo was doing alright to begin with cause Joe was just finding his range and working his jab, as soon as Joe turned the heat up Manfredo looked lost
