Zamora was an Earnie Shavers/George Foreman type of fighter. Those early rounds were a real peril to anyone getting in that ring with him. However, Jorge Lujan, a fighter who looked like an easy defense, exposed him. I always say the bane of many a great slugger is a counter-puncher with a great chin (or great defense). And Lujan had a great chin. He took Zamora into deep waters and let him drown in his own fatigue. Now, Castillo was one of the greatest counter-punchers I ever saw and he too had a great set of whiskers (Olivares, Pimental, Herrera). I see a fight between these two unfolding fairly similar to Zamora-Lujan. A stoppage between 9-11 for Chucho.
Chucho is a cut above here. Zamora was an exciting lightning bolt of a fighter to watch but Castillo was pretty close to master class. Highly under appreciated. Spent better part of a day watching him a while back and man, what a fighter.
