Castillo/Corrales was the better fight. 10 great rounds vs. 3 great rounds doesn't even out, simple as that.

It has to be Hagler v Hearns for me, might have been just three rounds of boxing but WHAT three rounds of boxing they were.

i expect jlc-corrales to get a higher vote, the ignorant masses always win when it comes to a vote, just look at george bush election.

I'll give Hagler-Hearns the slight edge.
Hagler-Hearns....is the BENCHMARK for ferocity & breathtaking excitement.
Since 1985....it's the fight all others are compared to....
Corrales-Castillo is an all-time great fight....certainly the best in a long time.
But.."Hagler-Hearns"......that fight meant so much, it has almost become a boxing cliche.

Originally posted by slipxthe reason hagler hearns was better is
nobody pussied out at the end spitting out their mouthpiece
way more elite moves were used, check out hearns using the ropes for leverage in round one,
hearns broke his right hand on haglers head in round one, that was an epic punch and proves he had an epic chin..not to mention add hella drama to the fight and show how brave and great hearns was for continuing to throw that right hand even after it was broke
it was war from the opening bell very much on a different level than jlc castillo
anyway that's kind of a paradox, legendary fighters make legendary fights, great fighters make great fights. the fighters make the fight.. what's the confusion?

When did I say the fight was legendary because the fighters are legendary? I said the fight was legendary because the fight itself was legendary you illiterate novice child.

Fights and fighters are just like wine, they get better as the years go by in the eyes of the public.
Give the Castillo v. Corrales fight 5 or 10 years to ferment, let the tale/legend grow...also after 5 or 10 years have gone by and no one has seen a better fight then it will really ring true as to how great the fight actually was.
Hagler/Hearns was a benchmark as you said and it was an unfair one because it was almost impossible to equal, Castillo/Corrales is the new age benchmark and fans will slowly realize that this fight is not going to be equaled anytime soon.
Tough too pick but 10 rounds of war is 10 rounds of war.
