    Right after the Alexander fight... Soto-Karass was his first with Robert. I believe.

    Castro and I'd say by a long margin TBH.

    Castro's fight resume reads more like a 1950's throwback than a guy that operated in the 80s-2000s

    Certainly… having Duran, Jirov, Johnson and RJJ on your resume is unique.

    Maidiana all day. Castro went the distance with a prime ROY JONES and a prime TERRY NORRIS when those two were knocking out everybody.
    He knocked out Jackson after getting beaten up beat Reggie Johnson TWICE although some home cooking seemed involved to be honest.
    Beat a 100 year old Duran but also lost to a 100 year old Duran.
    Now Marcos beat Ortiz when Ortiz was highly thought of and beat up Broner when Broner was thought of as one of the best boxers in the world.
    Also beat a faded Morales a pretty tough Lopez and gave a faded Mayweather a pretty good run twice.
