    After reading about it finally got round to watching Casamayor Vs Corrales. Very good fight. Casa is a shadow of himself from back then hardly any movement compared to the 2003 version.

    Hoya, if you've seen it, how did you score Casamayor-Castillo? I watched a while back and it was one hard fight to score. I had it 114-113 Castillo in the end though it could have gone either way.

    If I remember correctly I had it the same, Castillo by a point. Although its been a while, and I'm planning on a re-watch fairly soon.

    Just Watched Hagler-Mugabi

    A Brutal Fight. Hagler shows immense grit and determination and uses his boxing ability to break down Muagbi who was built like a brick **** house and had great power and was a very good fighter. I think if he not met Hagler he could of won a world title at middleweight and had a decent reign.

    what did you think of Carp vs Siki

    Carpentier was such a hero in France at that time that he could away with pretty much anything against a African fighter.

    it was funny he gets KD'd cleanly and is out and the ref DQs Siki and teh judges stand up and tell the ref to **** off and declare Siki the winner. haha

    Carp was nowhere near at his best for that fight though
