    Showtime should take this fight off PPV

    I don't care who is fighting.. You can't charge 50$ for a lightweight fight with no belt on the line.. you just can't..

    Do you think the casual fans are going to be attracted to this?

      well im getting it anyway.

      i was more excited for rahman-barrett than this one.

      i dont like castillo or chico cause they both were given victories they didnt earn against casamayor.

      chico i like his fighting style though and castillos i dont care for.

      the biggest thing for this card is the undercard fights.

      chavez jr, pacquiao-hernandez and arce-hussein.

          so they should take this fight off PPV, thus taking away huge sums of money from both Corrales and Castillo, even tho they gave us the best fight in years earlier this year, and its a possibility they could do it again tonight?

          good thinking

              NO title? who cares? This fight is about setting things straight, and finishing what was started. Just cause theyre not big, heavy, slow boxers doesnt mean a ko isnt a possibility. Lol, trust me, these two guys will provide a hell of alot more entertainment than any of todays top heavies, and when shelling out $50, thats important. I can actually order this fight and still like myself in the morning.

                  I think it should be PPV but no way should a fight cost 50$.

                  50$ is a robbery.

                  No fight unless its the Thrilla in Manila should cost 50$.

                    Some of the lustre has gone from this fight. Even though the belts are no more valuable than the ones you can buy in Walmart, this was a world championship fight until Castillo screwed up.

                    Now we will always wonder about the weight and if it was a factor in the fight. If Castillo wins, the fight is tainted. I don't want to see Corrales make any less money than he would have because it's not his fault.

                    I didn't have a side in this fight but now want to see Castillo get KO'd.
