    Castillo really thought that he was jobbed in that Rose fight. He truly impressed me with his trilogy with olivares though...a real live tough guy..a clever tough guy.

    It was a close fight - Chucho was slightly better, in my opinion.

    I love that fight. It's one of my favourite fights, it's a wonderful fight. Herrera II i mean.

    Look forward to seeing that Flea, me dad was supposed to fight Stokes in March 68. It will be nice to have a look at him.

    Appreciate it.

    I don't think he really is...I thought there would be more out there. There isn't anything front-page on ESB if anyone reading this fancies cobbling something together.

    Lovely work Matt. Needless to say I haven't had the scope, not the skill to render me feelings on the may in the way you have. Lovely stuff.

    Thanks gents.

    Isn't that "fight a bull with a fork" line fantastic? And the La Times stuff about his fighting anything that doesn't have tusks? Great little fighter.
