    Flurries may well be good, but are they better than McFlurries?

    Come off it... Castillo is old but he is still top class. Khan has never proved his ability against anyone remotley close to the ability of current Castillo.

    People seem to think Castillo is totally shot, but I don't think he is. He's fighting the resuls of a long time of cutting weight the wrong way. However, as he showed against Ngoudjo he can still go. To put that win in perspective, Castillo did better against Ngoudjo than Malignaggi did. And if that wasn't enough, Malignaggi should have had more of an advantage over Ngoudjo than Castilllo.

    Prime Castillo? Castillo KO3
    Current Castillo? Castillo KO10

    The current Castillo is struggling to make Light Middle never mind Lightweight so that fight will not happen unless at a stupid catchweight. The Prime Castillo KO's Khan in under three rounds.

    Prime Castillo takes this one easy, in my opinion. KO early.

    Castillo nowadays....never mind the fact that he is the very definition of a "shot fighter", he can't even make the weight any longer. Khan would take this by stoppage in the middle rounds, even at a higher catch-weight.

    I agree to a certain extent.

    Castillo was losing the fight against Hatton, but the rounds were hardly 10-8's, after 3 it was probably 30-28, or perhaps 29-28 in favour of Hatton.

    Also, he was hardly up for the Ngoudjo fight, looked totally disinterested for me.
