Comments Thread For: Brian Castano Retains With Split Decision Over Michel Soro

Brian who?

Soro who?

Both normal fighters. Not rivals for Lara or Andrade.

Glad to see Castano win but surprised because Soro has been so impressive the past three or four years. Great win for Castano, especially on the road

Shocked? we've been telling people about Castaño here since a few years ago, and people has been pretty skeptical about him. He's good.

I've heard stuff about him but haven't really seen him so wasn't sure what to expect, but I had Soro as the best European at 154

brian show a lot of guts in this fight. my two main concerns coming into this fight was that brian has never had a fight to 12 rounds (if my memory doesn't betrays me) and his KD vs de jesus. i think that was just an accident now since he took soro's punches pretty well.

Hellova fight. I scored it 8-4 for Castano, but it was very competitive throughout.

Hopefully he fights another top 10 guy next, these tough fights will only improve him. Vanes would be a good option I think.

Soro can blame himself. He seemed to land most of the clean scoring shots of the fight, but he would simply turtle up at times and let Castano work. Not much was landing clean that I could see from Castano, but there was no reason for Soro to let him press and work. Soro had the better jab, and better punch selection, he landed most of the clean punches. Fighting in spurts though allows **** like that decision to happen.

I actually felt that Castano gave away most of the middle rounds by allowing Soro to put him on the back foot. When Castano actually went forward and led the action he was able to land under Soro's elbows and occasionally by punching with Soro land up top, but off the back foot he was hitting pure glove and air. Soro on the other hand was lower intensity, less powerful but more consistent, particularly with the jab, and landing at a higher connect rate

I lost track of scoring because I had one eye on the British boxing but I felt that it was a narrow Soro win or draw
