    Hatton won, fair and square, and he deserves his props:good

    But I really feel sorry for JLC....:| :-(

    Yeah, I feel really bad for him - he gets knocked down and also KO'd for the first time in his career, and now he will have to deal with this **** with Shaw and the Corrales estate. Just leave the man alone:-(

    I was wrong as well, it was no dive that liver shot will put anyone down. Castillo is done he's had a great career and gave us many memories.

    That might be true, but I don't want to see him in there against Cotto, Mosley, or Margarito. He would get hurt bad.

    And despite what some may think, I think he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

    I have thought this for awhile. Castillo has fought at 147 in the past, before dropping back down to 135.

    The corrales fight alone will put him there, but I agree. Steward's claims of JLC not being elite or HOF material is curious at best.

    castillo is still good enough to come back and earn a few $ by winning one of the other 140 belts

    About time Castillo got what he deserved. All those years of picking on small lightweights. Hatton owned him. :happy

    He needs to retire, he will be a journey man at 147.

    Castillo is larger than Hatton, in height and weight.

    Cotto was feasting upon much smaller 140 pounders for years b4 he moved up, so stop hating.

    I was totally wrong about this fight as well. Hatton did the job in good fashion. Castillo looks done to me.
