    Hmm I was just thinking, if Castillo had gotten up and not got knocked down again, it would have been an 8-6 round. If he did get knocked down a second time, 7-6 round. What ridiculous scores.

    thats the true def. of heart and determination. watching guys like Chico fighting their hearts out is way I respect boxers who steps in the ring and sport.

    If youd watched it in a film you'd be like 'yeah right, no way that would ever happen in real life'

    That's a pretty amazing round - but I am also a fan of rounds where both fighters line up their toes and just punch from bell to bell. I don't know of a link - but Augustus/Ward rd 10 is pretty amazing in that respect.

    Yup. No question. I used to think Ward-Gatti round 9 was the best round ever until i saw this fight.

    Absolutely!

    Considering the skill level and caliber of fighter, I doubt Hagler-Hearns round 1 will ever be topped!
