    Is Castillo done?

    His body shot KO loss to Hatton was surprising but not too absurd, but losing a wide decision to Lujan is bad.

    I see that he is facing Alfonso Gomez this Sat and is at +220, has he really sunk that low? I haven't seen him fighting of late, anyone give me a heads up?

    He is done, The loss to Hatton is forgivable, it could have just been a fluke shot that took everything away from him, but you cannot excuse how dreadful he has looked in other fights recently.

        Dude is the definition of shot. His fight with Corrales took alot out of him, add the body shot KO from Hatton, weight cutting-not making weight, and personal problems (a divorce I believe), and you get a shot boxer.

            Hahaha funny post. I'm not really sure if it was intended to be but it was funny though. Anyway, man I hate to see once-great fighters getting beaten by fighters who don't even belong in a ring with them when they were in their prime.

              It wasn't meant to be funny.


              JLC is probably also broke which can explain why he's still fighting.

                lightweights don't belong at welterweight unless they are fighting mayweather.
