    so, BY FAR, JLC's shenanigans were worse than Chico's

    but then again, did Bob Arum tell JLC that he "didn't have to make 135" because a KO win, by hook or by CROOK, would mean a 3rd fight?
    i love the massive exaggeration. the fact is chico cant take a good
    shot without going down, admittedly he usually gets up but not that
    time, but still i doubt that the weight played much ofa factor.
    the fight was going worse for chico than before, then he took a
    good shot, didnt cheat, and didnt get up.

            I think the weight issue is more controversial because Castillo had months to prepare and he obviously knew exactly what weight he had to be at, and did not do his job. Yet, I believe that ironically, Corrales spitting out his mouthpiece was the one that more likely changed the outcome of the fight. I dont know how much extra energy Castillo gained from those extra 3 pounds or whatever it was, but from what I saw, it seemed like Corrales made the right adjustments and as a result, he beat Corrales to the punch from the opening bell. I could be wrong, but I don't think this would have been much different, even if Castillo had weight a little more.
            My view of their first fight, however, was that it was so close that spitting the mouthpiece out was just enough to swing it in Corrales' favor. Still, ofcourse we'll never know whether or not Castillo would have won.
