    Weight KOs Castillo again!

    Former world champion Jose Luis Castillo has pulled out of his WBC junior welterweight eliminator with #1 rated Timothy Bradley on Saturday night's Maskaev-Peter undercard in Cancun. Castillo said stomach pains prevented him from losing the final three pounds required to make the 140lb limit. "I am very sorry, I feel depleted," stated Castillo. "I think it would be for the best. I don't want for anything in the world to hurt this sport....last night I had increasingly intense pains and my trainer and the doctor suggested I cancel the fight for my own safety." Castillo and his team returned this afternoon to Mexicali.

    Surprise, surprise.

    Dude's got discipline issues. He could learn a thing or two from a guy like Hopkins.

    This is sad, that a fighter's trouble making weight has come to this.

    He lost to a good fighter, but he wasn't destroyed. It's not anything we didn't see at 130 or 135.

    I've read that Castillo has money problems, so unfortunately if that's true he'll probably have to keep fighting. He deserves a nice retirement.

    Yes, yes he was destroyed, in every which way besides getting knocked out.

    He didn't get destroyed? he lost every round, his punches bounced harmlessly off of Clotty as if he was fighting with a 4 year old and he went down a couple of times. Hell it should have been a Kop but he was allowed to pull the mouthpiece bit again.

    He showed that he could not compete at 147
