    Castillo is shot to pieces, I hope he makes 147.

    Aside from the fact that Castillo is desperate for money, I agree.

    I'll reserve judgement.

    Castillo was a big lightweight who had a couple fights at welter against some journeymen and blew them away. Doesn't make much of a difference though as he is too shot to even make any noise at 140. Lujan is a dangerous prospect for castillo too as he has stopped some decent opponents at welter.

    I've always liked Castillo but this looks like a bad match-up for him. Lujan is a tough guy and Castillo is probably pretty shot. Just how much will decide how this goes. Wouldn't be a bit surprised if Lujan wins this.

    If nothing else it should be entertaning but im afraid for Castillo this was a guy who just 3 years ago could make 135 now he has to fight at 147. His body is breaking down in many different ways. I dont wanna see the ESPN trend of guys like Norwood,Byrd,Johnston getting slaughtered continue.

    I thought about it..
    **** it, Castillo By KO/TKO

    Yeah he is shot, but he SHOULD be able to win on this level.
    even if he is past it...
