Pacquiao from Diaz fight vs. prime Jose Luis Castillo at 135lbs. Who wins this and how do they win it? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_DD1fKmW8g"][/ame]
Pacquiao in a war. He's going to look real uncomfortable when cornered and hit & smothered on the inside, but he's quick enough to control the distance and get the better shots off for the majority of the fight (eating a good amount of shots along the way, of course.)
Castillo had an iron-chin and a massive punch, I doubt Manny would break through to him. Still, I think he could outwork and outmaneuver Castillo. Manny has had very little problems with Castillo type fighters. Honestly, it's the kind of fight I wish he took instead of the Diaz fight. Manny UD (maybe even a close one)
This will be like Coralles-Castillo wars, with so much power punches landing everywhere. Castillo puts pressure at Pac, which bothers pac on the ropes, but Pac likes to get into a brawl, and often he will get the upper hand. KO is imminent in the later rounds. I see a TKO win for Manny on cuts.
i think pac wins but not via ko or at least not that early. the castillo that fought floyd the first time would give pac a tough fight. meanwhile the pac that fought diaz is just beasting up. pac by decision.
pac was getting close to his peak when he fought Diaz. I dont see castillo ever winning this. Pacquiao lights him up and stops him in the late rounds.
