Anyone who doesn't post in the affirmative in this thread, yet uses this excuse to escape giving Hatton credit, will never be able to post on these forums without my overly locaqious mocking corrupting their attempts to communicate with others. If you really know that Castillo is shot, then post here before the fight starts. So- is he shot or not?
Hes not shot. Coming off a lack luster performance but pick any great fighter, choose their biggest and most impressive performances and ill show you plenty of lack luster fights even losses in between...
This is what I want to hear. So, while you won't be able to say "I knew Castillo was shot" or "This fight didn't mean anything anyway", you CAN say that you had doubts over how much Castillo had left. It takes a tough guy to put his balls out like that. :good
I DO NOT think he is shot and I think he will prove it to all doubters tommorow night. Give Hell Castillo!!
talk of "shot" fighters is usually overblown. If Hatton knocks his block off, maybe its because Hatton fought his ass off. and vice versa. On the flip side, too much is often put into one fight. We shall see, props to both guys for taking this fight on regular HBO.
