jose luis castillo's a bad mother

[Slipx]

i think that a guy like castillo would pose more of a threat than any of the other people in his weight class, in a barroom environment.

i say this not only because of his last two fights. I honestly thought he beat Mayweather and then I thought he was a damn good fighter, but I didnt really examine him as a fighter and take a look at his attributes.

the man is unstoppable, people speak of great chinned fighters never going down but a guy like castillo that throws defense out the window and just takes your sunday punch and keeps coming, is probably one of the fighters id be most afraid of stepping into the ring with. not many people on this earth can take a punch as big as the one corrales hit him with at the end of 9 and have your knees buckle but somehow catch yourself, its really amazing to watch a guy save himself like that instictually, although brutal.

now lets talk about how he fights and his best punch, which i think are the lead left hook upstairs and to the body. not only because it seems to be the punch he trains the most and quickest hook style punch, but his lead left hook to the head is almost as short as mayweathers and way more powerful. it's a beautiful , underrated, short left hook and I never hear anyone on here talk about it.

basically i admire the guy for coming out of a war like he did at age 34 taking all that punishment and losing ...and then going right back in the gym with the rematch in his mind, busted his ass training on what he did well in the ring like an intelligent fighter should i.e. his best landed shots were the lead left hook etc, turned his old left hook into a 20mm cannon and unleashed it for the 4th round tko. gotta love the guy.

out of all the fighters that really eat sleep and **** boxing i'd have to say castillo wins my vote. to lose and come back so hard is just awesome..

Castillo has been my man for years, there is no other fighter in the game that I have more passion for!

Your right he is one bad mother****er!

if that guy learned proper english right now and ended up defending his title 9-10 times, I bet he'd be doing speed stick commercials and get much more money/fan base than he has now from the US...i think he'd be a hit just by how he's never been down and has a weird looking battle tested face..haha

only downside to castillo is he cant be a hopkins style and fight til hes 40+ because he takes so many punches,..but so do i..hehe.. hes like mcculloughs idol, lol.. only time will tell i suppose.


edit:

i bet he was waking up at 5 am to train for the rematch..cuz he knew corrales was getting up at 8

Time will tell, this warring fight style that Castillo has isnt new, this is simply Jose Luis Castillo and has been for a long time.

I honestly think he can keep it up for a while, too me if there was one fighter in the sport that we learned years later was not human rather a machine it would be Castillo.

Rip his skin off and there is probably a 50/50 chance that he is the Terminator.

Yes I agree he's a mother ****er.

Here's my theory.

Ok he's from the same part of town as Chavez, right? Chavez had a thicker skull or whatever, right? It was like 1/3rd thicker than the avg male, I read in this boxing book I have. Of course I'm sure that's bull**** and it's like 1/6th thicker and they lied about it to make it sound like a circus attraction,haha, but lemme get to my point ..;P

since castillo and chavez are from the same part of town i assume they share the same heritage. obviously castillo possesses a thicker skull as well because no man can react the way he does to a power punch.

and here's another interesting thing I have in a history book at my house that I think correlates to males of his heritage having thicker skulls.

I will talk about this in my next post, this will be far too large for one post.

The sacred ball game

The favorite game of the peoples of Middle America before the Spanish conquest was a curious, and violent, cross between soccer, volleyball and the Spanish game of pelota. But it was much more than just a game, it also had religious significance and was a vital poart of important community rituals involving sacrifice and death.

The ball game, as it is known now, seems to have been first played by the Olmecs. By 400 BC it was already popular among the other peoples of middle america, and it spread over the centuries to the inhabitants of Teotihuacan, and and to the toltecs, the Mayas, and the Aztecs.

The Aztec version of the game is best known today, because more of their ball courts ahve survived and because aztec and spanish historians ahve left detailed accounts of their games.

Winners who chased fans
in the game, two teams faced each other over a line drawn across the centre of the court between two giant side walls. their aim was to knock a heavy rubber ball into their opponents end of the court in much the same way as volleyball players do today. the difference was that these players were allowed to bounce the ball off the walls, and to hit it with only their hips, knees , or elbows. teams could win a game outright by knocking the ball through either of the two stone rings that jutted out from midpoint of each side wall. the rings were sometimes 20ft or more above the court and only just big enough for the ball, so goals were uncommon. but a player who scored was allowed to confiscate the clothes and possessions of any spectators he and his friends could catch. "Give me the mother****ing shirt."
combatants wore kneepads, leather aprons, and
face masks to protect themsleves from the flying ball. Injuries were common, and sometimes fatal.

The game was so popular that goods of all kinds were wagered on the result.some were ruined by it. the indian chronicler Ixtlilxochitl tells of one game in the late 15th century where the Aztec emperor Axayacatl played against the ruler of the reighbouring city of Xochimilco. Axayacatl bet the marketplace of Mexico City against one of the ruler's gardens, and lost. But the next day, Aztec soldiers appeared at the palace of Xochimilco and 'while they saluted him and made him presents, they threw a garland of flowers about his neck with a blade hidden in it, and so killed him.




Losers who lost their lives

wherever the ball game was played, it had, besides its popular appeal, enormous ritual importance.ballcourts were always laid out east -west or south-north, and each part of the game had its own significance. the court represented the heavens, the stone rings symbolized sunset or sunrise or the equinoxes; and the movement of the ball represented the path of the sun, moon or stars depending on the beliefs of the area. among the mayas, where the ballgame was known as pok-ta-pok, some matches even ended with the ritual sacrifice of the losing team. among the aaztecs, the game was also used for divination, as when Montezuma played against the lord of the nearby city of Texoco to test the truth of a prophecy that strangers would come to rule in Tenochtitlan. The legend records that Montezuma won the first few games in the series of matches but was finally defeated- and it was not long afterwards that Hernan Cortes landed to begin his conquest of Mexico.

that was a pain to type reading from a book on this tiny desk.

anyway, i think chavez and corrales chin strength correlates with this crazy aztec game, and maybe people from sonora have strong aztec genes or something (or they do) because obviously they wore face protection the ball must have not been a ***** ball, obviously it hurt and i think maybe over time that particular type of human being developed a stronger cranium because of the popularity of this crazy sport in their area.

also it sounds pretty no holds barred, 'they chased fans and took their clothes' if i was a fan id put up a fight and im sure that happened, so there you go even more training for his forefathers chins.
