They're those punches thrown by southpaws.....usually after a straight left. I used to like the way Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson could double his to the body & the head.............

Close a lot of good fighters out there with out any name in the big time butid have to go with James Toney for his fantasic abiltiy to roll punches, take, give and how relaxed he is in ring. Also Winky Wright is a very good underrated fighter.
John Duddy is awsome, i saw his last fight, what a knockout, don't know how far he'll go though. He'll probably be another calzaghe british type fighter, popular over there and nowhere else
This guy beat Floyd once, went to war and won with a seemingly best-at-135 Juan Lazcano at the time. Even in the rematch with Floyd the fight was scored very closely (even closer than the one in which Castillo clearly won).
Castillo broke Julio Diaz down, and many people picked Diaz to outbox Castillo, some even to TKO him late.
Castillo had a good close fight and won vs Joel Casamayor, who is an awesome gold-medal boxer and simply could not find the will-power to hold off Castillo for 12 rounds. He put some serious hurt on Casamayor which made Casa tired and allowed Castillo to win the fight.
Castillo fought to a draw with awesome lightweight Stevie Johnston. Johnston split a pair of fights with a prime Cesar Bazan.
Castillo brutalized and TKO'd Bazan in 6 rounds in 2001. By comparison, it took Miguel Cotto 11 rounds to do the same vs a faded Bazan.
Castillo takes on all comers, odes well vs all comers, and still is not given the recognition he deserves.
i completely agree
i still need to see the two floyd fights tho
