    Unremarkable FW/SFW to great LW! Two time champ at the weight including lineal..

    1-1 with Corrales
    1-1 with FMJ (in a balanced mind)
    A win + a draw with Stevie Johnston

    Also beat Casamayor, Cesar Pezan & Julio Diaz

    He's an odd one... Seems he was one of those fighters that peaked fairly late & truly found his feet at a certain weight class. Let's look at his FW/SFW career:

    Despite campaigning at the weights for about 10 years & around 45 fights he was stopped 3 times at FW & beat no one of note. He lost to ALL the best fighters he fought as a FW & none of them were exactly special either. Never won a major title either ..

    He never won a major title at SFW either despite having plenty of fight's at the weight & was stopped by bum Julio Alvarez. His best win was 35 yr old 62-13-4 Jorge Paez who hadn't won a major title for 9 years, was coming off a KO loss & was fighting journeyman at that stage & never fought anyone of note again...

    & yes I was born in a crossfire hurricane!

    Such a shame he didn’t get the nod in the first Mayweather fight. He deserved it.

    Mayweather beat him twice, 114-112, and even clearer the 2nd time around.

    Very similar to Ward/Kovalev

    Ward beat him close the first time, then knocked him out the 2nd!!!

    Mayweather didn't foul Castillo or punch him in the bollox till it looked like they had been crushed with a baseball bat
