    Castillo no doubt, he beat the best p4p fighter in Floyd Mayweather who is slightly ahead of Cotto.

    Margarito CEMENTED his legacy in all the wrong ways.

    Castillo, both on accomplishments and skills.

    People forget that in his prime, Castillo was a GREAT lightweight. He has some great victories down there, has the greatest fight of all time arguably there, and showed fantastic skills as a brawler.

    He really was like a slightly larger JCC in a lot of ways.

    42:3 for Castillo now.

    Expected this to be closer, good to see such a result though.

    on one hand you have a great fighter who fought in some modern day classics and also has the heart of a warrior....


    now on the other hand, you have a cheater, a foul playing **** who loaded his gloves just to beat on physically smaller men......

    tough one, but i'll take Castillo
