Knowing everything we know today, is castillo a cheater who knows he cant beat Diego at 135?
    No, he just failed to make weight. It happens when you get older.

        How could people be defending this guy when it is so evident that he did not try to make weight. Come on....Scale is not hard to find. HOw hard is it to check your weight everyday and make adjustment. he didnt overweight a measly 1 lbs or ounces that 5 lbs. HOw could you miss 5 lbs?

          And your point is? How does failing to make weight make him a cheater? If he was trying to conceal it, it is one thing. Besides, what is the big deal if he is a few pounds over? How many boxers out there make weight and come in 20 lbs heavier the next day? Does anyone accuse them of cheating?

              Mexicans will always defend their fighters no matter how low they stoop. It's sickening.

                Castillo did not cheat.I think that he thought he could make the weight and just couldn't.Hopefully his next move will be five pounds north to jr. welterweight.

                  and in a fight how many time did castillo rabbit punch or lowblow?

                  he got time to loss his weight why couldnt he?

                  Corrales is old too and dont want to forcefuly retire in boxing
                  with serouis brain damage for match he got with a disadvantge for the second time. I would take the risk of hurting myself

                    He wanted to save the fight with Cotto, knowing a loss to Corrales could ruin it.

                      He tried to conceal it.
                      Didnt you see the reports.
                      He claimed he was coming along fine.

                      IT WAS FIVE POUNDS OVER THE LIMIT.
                      THATS AN ENTIRE WEIGHT CLASS.

                      Id say its a pretty big deal.
                      And this was BEFORE the fight happened.
                      You make zero sense.
