Is Castillo Officially a Cheater? PLZ Vote

[ReadyUp]

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

We are loyal people, but my stance remains the same.

He shouldn't be branded a "cheater."
Just VERY unprofessional for the time being.

How is he unprofessional when he got all those people around him making sure he makes weight. Unless of course he knew he couldnt and still signed a contract. thats cheating

When your able to make weight in a specfic weight class over an extended amount of time and then miss it once, your mind still tells you that you can make it if you make some changes. I guess he made his and it still didn't work.

Doesn't matter who he had working for him, signing a contract and not sticking to it is UNPROFESSIONAL. Not CHEATING.

and fighting with the weight advantage in the second fight is cheating

It was an advantage.

But if you consider that "cheating" then you must surely also consider the mouthpiece incident as cheating too right?

And by the way, I'm much more of a Diego Corrales fan than Jose Luis Castillo.

Dude needs to be suspended from boxing for at least a year. Poor sportmanship, and gives the sport a bad name.

Im not sure they can suspend him from the sport for a year.

I know they can do suspend him from fighting in Vegas but if I'm not mistaken, the Cotto/Castillo fight was to be held at the Garden in NYC. It will be interesting to see what unfolds.

I think Castillo is a disgrace to boxing, but I don't think he should be suspended, I think he should be fined. He will get bashed by the media & the fans, which he deserves. That should be enough & I hope he learns his lesson well.

the mouthpiece incident was punished by takeing one point off corrales but not making the wieght twice is another story.

the difference is that he is paid to fight and accepted the deal on it. example of Morlas lossing to Pacman and then grumbles about wieght.

if you dont like the rules or you cant handle it then dont take it the deal simple as that

Lightning doesnt strike twice..... tell that to Jose Luis Castillo. Knowing full well that Castillo failed to make weight again, do you still view his last minute effort of failing to make weight cheating. We all know what his doctor did by fooling with the scale. Knowing everything we know today, is castillo a cheater who knows he cant beat Diego at 135?

he's not a cheater because he didnt make weight.....he simply sorry excuse for a boxer..
