Castillo Predicts a 7th round KO against CHICO

[Knicksman20]

I think Corrales will stop JLC within 8. If he mixes his attack up instead of just going to war he can make it an earlier night. Then again Corrales likes to fight so it can go either way but my gut is telling me Corrales like it did the 1st time around.

Way ahead on points? The scorecards tell a different story (source - boxrec.com):

Daniel Van de Wiele 86-85
Lou Moret 87-84
Paul Smith 84-87

Ahead on two cards, one by a mere one point. This fight was there for the taking by either guy.

If the brilliant plan had Corrales way ahead on points, and he wasn't, maybe it wasn't so brilliant LOL.

Who won the fight? lol!

Corrales will fight smarter this time. He was killing Castillo from the outside, he stays there and he'll be all right.

excellent point. watch the fight again and note when bernstein points out how corrales is nailing castillo from the outside.

Who won the fight? lol!

Who didn't know the judges scoring in the first fight?

"Way ahead" LOL. Got any more brilliant strategies for Coralles LOL.

You didn't know the judges scores, yet had determined that the strategy was brilliant because Corrales was "WAY AHEAD" on the scoring? LOL. I'm going out on a limb and saying you aren't a real boxing analyst. At least not one that can read or be coherent. LOL.

Please post again when you reconnect with the facts. Further posts in denial only prolong the error and make it available to a wider audience. Over and out on that score (sic LOL).

I hope the rematch is at least half as good as the first, but these guys need to work out a different strategy than taking one to land one. These are career shortening fights for both guys and I'd like to see them for a few more years in good health and still at the top of their game.

Then note how many punches actually get in and how many get picked off by Castillo's gloves.
