"Past his Prime" VS "SHOT"...big difference

[Left2body]

Apart from Gatti at no part of his career would ever have tested PBF like Castillo tested PBF.
Hatton must also be given credit for downing Castillo who has never been down. Castillo could have had continued to fight past his prime and any boxer who would have had the ability to stop Castillo would need to be given credit.

I said that in my earlier post. I stated most concisely in another thread but here is the post.

Exactly. Castillo was definitely shot and I would've been on Hatton's fans asses if Castillo went the distance but Hatton won the way he was suppose to do.........he Won decisively.

MANY including myself gave PBF huge props for defeating a shot Gatti. A Gatti who even at his prime was not an Elite fighter.

It wasn't that PBF beat Gatti that garnered him respect it was that he dominated and won decisively. The same damn thing for Hatton-Castillo.

You can't hold the PBF-Gatti fight as a masterpiece and a Great fight while simolutaneously denouncing Hatton for his win.

Hatton-Castillo is the same thing as PBF-Gatti.
