Of course I am talking about Castillo, but I think just like Rodney he get's no respect. First of all I am a Mayweather fan and I think Floyd won both fights. I think alot of people thought Floyd lost the first fight just because they werent use to seeing Floyd get hit that much, and half the people dont like him anyway and would love to see him get his ass kicked. If he was a guy you never heard of you wouldve thought he did enough to beat Castillo. I never thought people gave Floyd enough credit for beating this guy. Alot of people say Floyd has faught good comp but no huge name, and when they talk about his big fights they always talk about Chico. I saw a thread recently asking if Castillo wins this fight with Cassamora does he deserve to be put on the #for# list. Then I see that G. Leon doesnt even have him in the top 20 #for#. I started wondering how come this guy alway's get's overlooked, how come this guy get's no respect, and what does this guy have to do to prove to people that he is one of the best in the world. I have had this guy in my top 10 since the Mayweather fights. Stevie Johnston was the best guy out their and this guy beat him twice in his prime. Then when people thought that he was starting to lose it and Lazcano was killing people everyone was saying this is the end for Jose. The only thing Jose does is goes out and put's a beating on this guy like he was hitting a penyada. Everyone alway's talking about how tough Morales and Gatti are but this guy is like a bull. He comes straight at you all night long eating and giving. Now his record isnt perfect but what he has done the last few years have been incredible. This guy looks just like, and fights just like a 2004 Chaves. Now dont get me wrong about the respect thing because we do talk about him, but we dont talk about him when it comes to big time or #for# fighters. What the hell has either Marquez ever done to be ahead of Castillo on the list. It makes me sick when they put people who keep losing like Oscar, Jones, and Mayorga ahead of this guy. Leon has Jones, Glen Johnson, both Marquez's and Byrd ahead of this guy. All I'm saying is this guy will fight anyone, and most of us would pick him against anyone at 130 or 135 but we still dont give him his just do. Now, with that being said I wouldnt be surprised if he lost to Cassamorya

Because you said pretty much what needs to be said. It was a good post. If you want a response, I will say that I do think Castillo will beat Casa, but it didn't seem worth arguing.Originally posted by DLTcant believe that no one responded to this
Castillo gets little respect. Its true.
You are the victom of making a too accurate post. As you can see...the negative reply dosen't actually dispute what you had to say in any real mannor and you didn't leave much room for argument.
Good post though, pretty much nailed it on the head.Last edited by WillieW; 12-01-2004, 02:07 PM.Comment

Shut the **** up. The only thing you know to say is Morales. Alot of people are reconized as one of the divisions best. That doesnt mean they get the respect that they deserve. Fighters like your boyfriend Morales always get's the headlines. Theres noway I would put your boyfiend ahead of him right now. Will youOriginally posted by abdiel2k3dats only cuz u dont know what the hell ur talkin about
hes recognized as one of his division best

Your Dangerfield line is great...don't be too sad that no one responded like the other guy said you basically spelled everything out. However your take on the Castillo/Floyd fights in my view are off. After watching the second fight it just reaffirmed the horrible decision in the first fight. In my mind there is no way Floyd won that fight, no way. Either way you look at it Jose Luis Castillo is the one opponent that Floyd has not dominated, in fact he struggled both fights with him. If Floyd struggles with Castillo I think he would have a very tough time with KT or Cotto. Floyd is a guy who always calls out the best, however I do not expect him to call out KT...Floyd no's in his heart how tough the fights were against Castillo...if he fights KT they will be a lot tougher!Originally posted by DLTOf course I am talking about Castillo, but I think just like Rodney he get's no respect.

Oh by the way this saturday night, JL Castillo will dominate Casmayor in a way that will make Corrales fans rethink who would win a matchup between their boy and Castillo...after Saturday night the talk of the fight world will be JL Dangerfield.Comment

I'd advise you to speak a lil more respectful to abdiel. You might have a different opinion and that's ok but you dont want to mess with the MKM.Originally posted by DLTShut the **** up.

That being said boxing has become a some kinda show. It's not all about talent and the sport itself anymore. But people better not complain about it as they earn a lot more money cause of this. As a true fan this certainly is frustrating but what can you do?Comment

I disagree I thought Floyd won the rematch rather easily. He made Castillo look very ordinary at times in the fight. The first fight I agree he lost a close decision but the second I thought he won easy.Originally posted by scapYour Dangerfield line is great...don't be too sad that no one responded like the other guy said you basically spelled everything out.
