Did I say there was after every fight? Only fights I mentioned were Hopkins-Taylor and Corrales-Castillo. After both fights, the losers (i.e. Hopkins, Castillo), enacted the rematch clause to gurantee a rematch for the title they lost.
No, I am not new to boxing. Maybe you just aren't as informed as you think you are.
That isn't what happened.
After the fight was over, Castillo's people lobbied the WBC to declare the fight a No Contest, hold the belt vacant and order an IMMEDIATE rematch.
yea this is unacceptable at this level of pro boxing
Castillo could face a career ending mistake here. One should have, could have, would have been a defining moment turned out to be a case of not professional enough to make weight.
He asked for this rematch and therefore Castillo should be the first to take the lead in complying with his obligation.
Of course Castillo forced a rematch because everyone including Corrales weren't too interested in giving a rematch. Castillo certainly deserved one. People need to just quit complaining about the weight issue because both fighters would of came in at around 147 anyway. Castillo is the only one who has to weigh in today. Corrales isn't complaining so you shouldn't either. Just enjoy the fight.

Exactly, the weight is not going effect the fight.
its a sign of laziness, before this i thought castillo was a lock for this fight but now iam kind of hesitant. with that said castillo TKO 8
I don't think it is him being lazy but him not being able to make the weight anymore. Everyone who knows about Castillo's weight issues knew that one day he wouldn't be able to make the weight. He just stay around 135 a little too long.
How do you miss the weight on the biggest fight of your life??? Imagine how pissed off Showtime is lmfao...Im not watching it now..
lol, youre not gonna watch to what, spite him not making weight?? Your loss, for sure. I've never questioned someone for being a true fan before, but I've gotta say, if that is going to keep you from watching the rematch of the best fight in the last 10 yr's, youre either crazy, or have limited love for the sport.
I call folks like you 'conditional fans'.
