    Marquez has become so overrated I want to cry. Most skilled brawler ever? Would stop prime Castillo? Pacquiao was made for him? He lost! He mutha-****in' lost! He...he...he only just barely stopped Juan Diaz! Juan mutha-****in' Diaz. Shoot me now. Someone.

    Styles makes fight.

    Castillo's fighting style is well fitted for JMM. JMM will have a field day tagging Castillo with his counters when Castillo tries to comes in for his inside fighting.

    Decision or stoppage . . . I'll pick JMM.

    Yeah, a better counterpuncher in Floyd had an easy time countering the **** out of Castillo on route to an easy, wide decision. Oh, wait.

    Stoppage? This place is soul destroying.

    Castillo decision. I think his speed matches well against Marquez, who is not fast.

    Castillo's prime was a huge puncher and a good pressure fighter. I lean on him to win. UD with multiple KDs on JMM.

    He's definitely not slow.



    I see Castillo getting work in early, scoring a knockdown, and Marquez ad******g mid-fight to consistently land the cleaner more accurate blows to win a close decision.

    Castillo by decision or stoppage. Part of me wants to go with the latter as JLC as physically bigger and stronger and was a punishing accumulation puncher to the body and the head. JMM would have to get into a war and I think he'd be biting off more than he could chew with a prime Castillo.

    Castillo found his peak late in his.career and developed a chin, stamina, and punch resistance at 135 that made him a threat to all styles. He could be the volume punching pressure fighter like when he beat Floyd or the devastating punchet in both fights with Chico. By that time jlc was already deteriorating even in his win over chico who also was fading. I pick a prime castillo to take jmms best shots and smothers jmm in a close exciting fight that could of gone either way. Castillo by md.
