    Does any one know how he blew all his $? It seems like he's fighting for peanuts, for the style he had/has he should of hung em up a long time ago,i belive his broke and in need of $ other than that I don't see why he is still lacing them up.Btw didn't he pay a **** loaf of fees to one of the organizations?

    For all of his battles, and it must be around 70 by now, he really only had about 10 or 11 money fights, where he earned 100K or more. The guy, who is a personal favorite of mine, really didn't fight anyone until he met up with Johnson for the WBC title in 2000?.

    Some guys like PBF and DLH were earning 100K before their 20th fights, but then again they were world reknowned fighters, whereas Castillo was basically a club fighter/local hero in Mexico until he beat Stevie Johnson for the WBC strap.

    Judging from what he's doing right now, his businesses probably aren't successful. He's still fighting even though he's shot, and shot fighters usually keep on fighting because they need the $.
