    Momentarily but he got the last word in. Castillo was saved by the bell.

    Damn I missed the final shots. That's the problem with trying to watch boxing at work!

    Not sensitive at all about Loma. His talent stands on its own.

    As for Toledo, Loma handled him quite easily in the World's last November. In fact, if memory serves he dropped the Cuban with a beautiful shot in the 1st Rd.

    Gotta say SHW has been one of the weaker looking divisions so far in the games. Only Cammarelle and Medzhidov impressed in the first half of the round and they were in fairly easy fights. The rest looked pretty ordinary.

    Savon v Joshua is a very, very interesting bout, think Dychko could be a dark horse as well.

    Should be a great atmosphere for that one :yep

    I've never seen Savon fight but he's Cuban so I'm just gonna assume he's pretty ****ing good.

    Really good boxer with power. But he's often fighting stupid imo. He loves to hit people hard instead of concentrating on boxing. He'd do better boxing.

    Cammarelle has a great job as a policeman, and gets time of to train and is im sure quite happy with his life like that, maybe after this games he may think of going pro for a couple of years to try his luck, seeing as the heavys aint that strong, rematch price as a pro haha

    i was watching in the stands today!!!!

    thought camarelle looked solid but pretty null.
    the crowd all stood up and chanted for castillo when he caught him with the left hand.
    us brits love cheer for the underdog.

    thought the morrocan actually looked pretty good. for a tubby ****er the guy moves smoothly.

    sad times for u.s. a guy on the other side of the stadium was screaming for "1-2 jab 1-2 jab...it never happend"


    forgot to say that the mexican bantamweight was the most well recieved and a big cheer for that congolese fighter. he tried his best and showed some promise just out his depth.
