140 seems to be a thing of the past given Castillo's present weight issues. Will he find some success at welterweight, or will he go down the path of Arturo Gatti and Ricky Hatton in fighters for whom one weight class makes all the difference.

No never was a big puncher and never performed well at the higher weights even when he was younger. Besides he has looked shot since Ngoju (sp) -
At this point in his career, no. He would only serve as a name opponent for prospects to be measured against.Comment

castillo will be easy knock outs for cotto and cintron and quintana will out box himComment

I think he could as much as when corrales tried it when he fought Clottey... Diego did good.. but his power was just not equal to a true WW...Comment

You never know how Corrales power would have really effected the fight if Clottey didn't weight 170 lbs on fight night for a fight at 147 lbs. I never thought that fight should count on Corrales' record because of the weight difference. Weighing 170 lbs on fight night for a fight at 147 lbs is cheating no matter how its looked at.
I don't think Manny should be allowed to weigh 144 lbs on fight night for fights at 130 lbs. No fighter should be allowed to gain that much weight before the fight. **** like that makes weigh-ins useless.Comment

he can always fight the andre berto opponentsComment

You guys know Castillo did fight at WW, right? He had three fights at WW right after losing to PBF the second time before he dropped back down to 135 to fight Lazcano on the DLH - Sturm undercard. That's why Lazcano was such a favorite, because nobody thought Castillo would be able to make the weight and, if he did, that he'd bee too slow and tired in the second half.Comment
