Great fights, heart of a warrior, participant in one of the greatest wars ever... :happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy
one of my favs and certainly missed..... when castillo fought, you knew for the most part it would be a fight to catch.
Chico was one of my favorites. But in terms of his boxing career, it looked like it was all downhill even before he died.
Chico was a warrior. His career was declining from the looks of it, but he could've gone on FNF for a little bit and made a comeback.
wierd man i was just thinking about him today and was gunna post something similar how bizzare ... yes he was legend his fight with castilo (1) was one of the ATG wars in boxing history imo
yeah one of my favorite fighters i hated seeing him get beat by clottey like that . wish he would of fought baby bull**** DIAZ so this hype **** would be over but don and babybull**** diaz wanted no part of him or castillo he was a great fighter and became a fan when he won the title also him not being far from the bay area helped alot to even when he lost to mayweather i was still on his bandwagon and when he and frietas fought wich were my 2 favorite fighters at the time i rember not being happy but he provided good memory ang an instant classic
This revisionist bull**** with him has to stop. I don't think he was nessecarily bad, but he was not a good man. Good men don't beat their pregnant wives. Good men don't speed when drunk on a busy road, despite having a family to provide for. It's the same with people like McClellan. It's a shame he is in the state he is now, but it's sickening to read people talk about him like he was a great person. He was a piece of ****, and many people, not including myself, think karma has worked a treat on him. He abused animals. If he was in perfect condition, he'd be hated. Let's not let the tragic stories behind these two cloud what they were. But yeah, I miss him. Regardless of his character outside of the ring, he was one of the most exciting boxers to ever lace up a pair of gloves.
not PBF but he did every one else i felt had the fight taken place at 135 it would of been different as he had already moved up then back down just for this fight . i felt that his step father should of let him kept fighting maybe he could of pulled it of in the last rounds as i did see him hurt pbf in that fight a couple of times when he landed he just didnt land that often though
I feel you. However, I do think that he corrected his behavior later in his life in so much as the domestic abuse goes. As far as the DUI, I dont know if I qualify someone has a bad man for being DUI. Its a stupid mistake, no doubt. I just dont know too many people who havent made this mistake and wouldnt call them bad people. Diego came up in rought circumstances. Im glad he made it out if this to become a great fighter, and I truly believe he was more of a good person than a bad one by the end of his life. Just my opininion though, and I dont have any problem with anyone thinking differently
