    Abner Mares vs. Martin Castillo?



    According to this article (spanish), Castillo/Mares might be an undercard on Mosley/Judah. Not sure If I like this fight for either fighter.

    I like Castillo. But he might just be finished. At the same time, this is a HUGE step up for a young fighter that I thought they were bringing along at a very nice pace. A fighter I liked, too. Could be a good test, or a horrible match-making decision. Interesting to watch though.

    One thing about PPVs that have two guys in the mian event who aren't HUGE names, but BIG names, is that the undercard seems to always be better. Due to money being able to be spent on things other than the main eventers. See, Pavlik/Taylor II.

      damn... I wouldnt want any of the two to lose, i think Abner Mares will beat him... I wish Castillo would fight some other fighter tho, hes skilled.

        wow, thats a hell of match up. A little to big a step up in class for Mares. Id take Castillo.

        Although, both guys hit pretty good, and Mares gets hit a LOT, so that could be a truly special fight.

            That would be a great fight, it's pretty even imo... You know that I read today that the Lopez-De Leon fight might be change to a "Solo Boxeo" card instead of the Pavlik undercard on HBO.

                Talk about a step up. It might be a little to early for Abner to face Castillo but I might be proven wrong. Nonetheless this should be a cracker of a fight.

                    After seeing Castillo's last fight, I think he is stopped by the bigger and younger Mares. Castillo looked totally shot so this could be a total beatdown.
