I've noticed that many of you refer back to the first Castillo fight as the formula to beat Floyd. May I offer a reminder: Castillo was a BIG lightweight, and PBF was just moving up from 130.
That was several years ago. Since that time, PBF has become bigger, his body has matured, he has fought bigger men, and he has just become a STRONGER fighter.
Ricky Hatton has not - AND COULD NOT - hang in the ring with men as big as Baldomir and Delahoya. Do you feel that Hatton can go 12 with Oscar?
If Ricky Hatton's gameplan is to try to maul PBF, I think he will find some unpleasant surprises in the ring.
And for those posters who don't remember the Baldomir fight very well, I submit this reminder:
Where exactly was all this "running"?
