      Anyone who thinks Teixeira is the easiest champ to defeat at 154 is making a mistake.
      He really knows how to box from his southpaw stance.

        Only time I saw Tex fight he looked like a fish out of water. Got completely steamrolled by Curtis Stevens.

          I don`t think Teixeira is any worse than other mediocre fighters in division. Not an easy route for Tim.

            Agree. He's got a chin too. No, not easy. Toughest matchup for young Tszyu at this point.

                Tim looked great against rugged Horn but we get to finally see his worth once he faces this guy Teixeira

                  Lara is WBA champ, Castano no longer ranked with the WBA so he isn't taking a rematch when he as a potential title shot lined up.

                    As a challenger the more you are perceived as a threat, the more you are avoided like the plague!!!

                    Could be the reason but who knows.
                    Like Crawford, Castano has a very good amateur pedigree that many of his contemporaries are aware of.
