    how could JLC not make weight ?

    i mean this guy is vet of 60 pros fights , and he fought at the world level for a long time .

    he is obviously not a genuine lightweight , but how come he couldnt make weight for the biggest fight of his career ?

    my theory is that he used the same sweating and weight draining methods he usually uses .

    but he is gettin older and had a long lay off , so his body went to a higher weight during the layoff plus age = weight so he just was too big to make 135 anymore . he discovered it when he started his weight loss routine in the last hours . and cheated , which should IMO have him banned from pro boxing (but hey , that s boxing )

        Castillo is a ****ing moron for not making weight.

        That being said I hope Corrales gets killed in the ring tonight, literally. I want his pregnant wife to be left a widow.

          No credit will go Castillo for not acting like a professional. Whatever the excuses, he had 5 months to make weight. It's his own fault that there's no belts on the line.

                Rude? Or honest? Cant you distinguish.

                Fact is, Castillo aint professional enough to comply what's incumbent upon him. He's had months to prepare. What Tino's post say is true, brutal, but honest.

                Let's not be hypocrites here.

                  hmm

                  What a bunch of ***** armchair qb's. This has nothing to do with professionalism, so save your glibe comments. Castillo is just not supposed to fight at 135. Te dude comes into the ring at 155 and has had fights (KO's even) at WELTERWEIGHT.

                  He's also older now and that makes it even harder to make weight. There's only so much water you can sweat off and fat you can burn without killing yourself.

                  And wtf is all this ***** talk about the fight being meaningless? This fight is as meaningful as ever. Since when do these ***** belts mean anything?

                  It's still the 2 best lightweights in the world goin' at it.

                    See my last post:

                    They are both cheaters!
                    Who cares! Just fight!
                    One spits out mouthpieces to buy more time, the other comes in overweight to gain physical advantage.
                    They are even...1for1.
