Hi, guys. A lot of heat has been put on me lately for making "outrageous" statements and fighting arguments by resorting to insults. The fact of the matter is that what I do here is the complete opposite of that. My red karma bar means I have an opinion. Your blue karma bars (typically) mean you don't.
Now, I was watching Castillo-Corrales again today and I noticed that before the 7th round, Joe Goosen mentions "the mouthpiece" but says "not yet". This is proof that Corrales and Goosen both planned on strategically losing the mouthpiece should Corrales find himself in trouble. And why not? Freitas did the exact same thing to them, and Goosen was irate over it. But this is boxing where actions speak louder than words. Goosen realized he couldn't do anything about Freitas spitting out his mouthpiece. Freitas was rightfully penalized, and that was it. Being the genius he is, Goosen noted that Corrales would now spit out his mouthpiece the next time he was in trouble himself. Like I said, crying doesn't get you very far so I suggest all Castillo fans claiming foul or anybody namecalling Corrales "Cheapo Corrales" please stop whining. It shouldn't have mattered whether Corrales spit out his mouthpiece against Castillo. He was penalized just like Freitas was. So why didn't Castillo win the fight? Corrales still beat Freitas after all. I'll tell you why: Corrales is better than Castillo.
In that fight, you can't help but notice Al Bernstein continuously point out the success Corrales has while fighting from the outside. Corrales dominated half of several rounds (something only done by Corrales in this fight) by hammering Castillo with shots from the outside. Corrales will do this the entire fight the next time around and either win a decision or stop Castillo late once again, but Castillo will NOT win this fight. You can't beat someone with the skills and heart of Corrales. The package is truly unstoppable for most opponents to handle.
Now, respond with your one-sentence insults and send the red karma my way, but I proved my point, and I think any of you would be hardpressed to disagree with any statement I've made here. But for some reason, I'll still be chastized and told I'm the worst poster on the site.
