    IMO, the weight didn't win the fight for Castillo, the hook did. On fight night they weighed almost the same so IMO they're both cheaters. That being said, rules are rules and if one of them should have to weigh in at a certain weight, the other should too. This **** wouldn't happen if fighter fought their weight.
    I think they should go back to weighing in the day of the fight, and if the ****ers still chooes to risk it and die, let 'em ****ing die!

      Old days = PERFECT!

      But honestly, if you think about it, how many hall of famers can you remember pulling off that crap?

        If you mean about the weight, I think they just fought their weight, that's why in many cases fighters at a certain weight were shorter than they are now. Carmen Basilio, Jake Lamotta, and Gene Fullmer were all 5'8 and they all ended up fighting at 160 lbs. There are exceptions to every rule, but I think for the most part the fighters are taller now, and I think that's why lol
