    I would say that, Castillo definatley has better skills but Margarito is stronger than Castillo.When you seperate the weight differences things change. Look what happened to Morales againts Raheem. No doubt Morales is the better fighter but at 135 he proved he is nothing.Same thing can happen to castillo.If he can bring his power and his chin to compete with natural 147 pounders then ya, he can beat Margarito.

      morales had a bad night, he will kill raheem if they fight again. that was not morales i knew. castillo is very strong, he\'s the better boxer. castillo is getting stronger with more weight, just ask corrales. castillo has the best chin in i\'ve ever seen, very similar to chavez.

        As you can tell my fellow statesman Castillo is my favorite fighter and i say it remains to be seen whether or not Castillo can be as strong as the natural 147 pounders like Margarito. morales has no business at 135, I m just glad he didnt fight Corrales cause Corrales would have eneded his career. At 135 raheem can and will beat Morales again if he fights just like he did the first fight.

        It takes a special kind of fighter to jump 2 and 3 weight division and be equally competative as he was in his first. Mayweather has the speed and brilliant D,Jones had his speed and reflexes. Mexican fighters like Castillo dont do to well cause he relies on his power,chin and strength. He will not be the stronger man at 147. he can be the tougher guy no doubt and win fights at that weight on sheer balls but like I said it remains to be seen.

          don\'t you think morales was not in shape in the raheem fight. i agree morales is not belt like castillo, so its better for him to stay at 130. castillo is big boned i can see him being even be better at the higher weights. the only guy that will trouble castillo is maywether, i think castillo will beat everyone else. he will ko zab with one punch, he will beat hatton, he will beat tszyu or anyone else at 140-147.

            Even for me that is a little far fetched but i like the way you think.You could be right but it remains to be seen.

            Castillo had his crack at Mayweather twice and although I thought he won the first and gave Mayweather his biggest test,he will not beat him unless Mayweather has slown down a bit.

            Morales can be given a second chance and we will go from there.

              I don't see what all the fuss about Margarito is about. He is painfully slow, and throws very wide punches. Floyd would easily beat Margarito by just countering and dancing. Margarito hasn't shown the skill to be able to compete with the elite fighters of the world so there shouldn't be any fuss about him.

              On top of that, the average boxing fan doesn't know about him, so he won't get any big fights anytime soon unless he beats a pretty good fighter. Kyvelos and Cintron don't class as pretty good fighters either.

                if mayweather brawls castillo he will lose. i\'m also the biggest castillo fan, i had maywether winning both fights, the first one was very close. i hope maywether goes to 154 fight winky. castillo is very underrated in my book, people should recognize that he\'s the second best fighter today. i dont want to sound biased, that\'s just my opinion.

                  margarito, sadly i dont think will get any good fights. i dont think zab would fight him, pbf would use an excuse like whos margarito? maybe a big fight for him could be mayorga at 154, and that would be a tough one. mayo is tha guy i feel could give him tha most trouble from welter to jr middle weight.
                  and i do belive morales would beat rahheem in a rematch, but plain and simple he was owned in tha first fite!
                  castillo vs margarito?! dam haha, we'll have to see how castillo does at 140 first, i think he'll win some good fites there.

                      why? castillo is the better boxer, better chin, he can easily put on some extra weight in be stronger. castillo is one of the few that becomes better with more weight.
