Is Jose Luis Castillo an atg?

[IronDanHamza]

Sure, but head to head, what atg lw fighters would you pick Castillo over?

Ok but that isn't how ATG lists are usually ranked, are they?

It's usually and certainly in my case based on resume

And I can't name 20 better than Castillo, so, that's an ATG lightweight.

Floyd castillo 1 was like 70/30 castillo. Watch the fight again and look at the punch stats.

If we go by the actual media press row scorecards then no it was 50-50.

Is this going to be like when Canelo fans say "if you look at the punches, subtract jabs, times two for body...and Canelo threw more!"

because...yeah

[CHOWWOKKA]

Of course he is.
He gave the GOAT the closest fight in his career.
That's something canelo, manny, corrales and hatton couldn't do.

I’m not sure it’s solely based on resume. To me the term atg means a fighter would be “great” in any era. We quantify that by comparing resumes and accomplishments.

[Blond Beast]

No he isn’t. Three solid wins to his credit, four if you count the Floyd robbery.

The most impressive thing he ever did one way or another was lose a Million dollars on the scale. Wasent even close.

Right.

And who has a better resume at Lightweight from that era?

[Larry the boss]

No, not even close

[A-Wolf]

On paper no in the ring yes.
