    I always held something against him for the Corrales weight thing in the 2nd fight. Think it got done on him in the 3rd or was it him again?

    I agree he is very underrated. He gets love on the board though (ive been readin) and that's good to see...hopefullllly he gets into the Hall. He really should on his resume alone.

    Oh he has tons of heart, no doubt.

    He just isn't very good at boxing/fighting. :!:

    I guess I was seeing a different fight, where JLC really wasn't landing anything effective (from round 4 onwards). . And Poopa, while not landing much effective either, was landing overall more shots. . ANd backing him up. JLC just wasn't doing anything. .

    I thought all 6 of those rounds: 3-8 could have gone either way. . ANd I gave him 5 of those rounds. . .

    Was once told his fighting style is so Cuban that he wouldn't transfer to being a pro well.

    Catillo was landing hard punches that were messing his face terribly. Hard to say they had NO effect on Popo.

    This is just punishment for those times Popo Freitas avoided Castillo :yep

    That large head is an inviting target. It's a natural disadvantage.

    Possible of course, but seeing the current Cuban pros he might just make the jump :p
