I think so too.Corrales is obviously not a true 135 pounder either,i'm surprised that the promotion didn't move the weight of this fight up to 138 or even 140 limit because both fighters are obviously too big for the 135 limit.

Castillo fought at welterweight(147lbs) twice in his career,he killed himself to make 135 for the past 5yrs,it's long overdue...hope he can still get the big fights despite all the good 140pounders moving up to 147.

I would be interested in watching them fight again at 140. But yeah both of them should move up.

He's a great fighter that no longer belongs at 135 pounds.

JP, long time no see.
As for Castillo, I voted good/not great.
I think he's going to be looked down upon alot for the weigh in stuff by his people and all over the world.
He needs to find a way to redeem himself like Duran did after the No Mas **** happened.
