    Castillo was a big lightweight, and I'd say it's fair to assume he'd be a good sized welter in an era with same day weigh-in's.

    How does he fare here? Would Cuevas demolish Castillo?

    Ding! ding! round 1......CRASH-BANG-WALLOP & Jose does a glazed eyed Hatton impersonation on his back sucking air:smoke
     
  3. I've not seen enough of Castillo at his best, but instinct just tells me he'd be shredded here.

    3 or 4 rounds maximum but probably 1 or 2.

    Pipino by bloody massacre, just too much firepower for Castillo to handle. Cuevas vs Palomino would be better :bbb

    Castillo's durability gettin' no love here?!

    I really liked Castillo. But I agree he's outgunned here.

    Cuevas Vs Cotto? Cuevas Vs Hatton? ;-) All same day weigh in's over 12 (a bit for either era then)

    Here's a few different ones: Palomino Vs Forrest (24 hour weigh in's, 12 rounds)

    Mayorga Vs Cuevas, same as above.

    I think a prime Pipino destroys Castillo, Hatton and Cotto all early.

    well maybes Cotto lasts longer but still gets got in the end.
     
  10. I think Hatton would last the longest out of the three.

    Probably the least skilled of the three (no slight btw) but probably the most fearless.
