REED Can't Say that he's Seen any Threads Regarding this Particular Matchup...
Definitely 1 of the More Intriguing Bouts of 2007 & GUARANTEED to B "Fan Friendly"...
Who Do U Like??:dunno: ...
REED Isn't Quite sure Yet,but he Knows 1 Thing;it's FOOLISH to Judge Castillo's Chances Based on the Ngoudjo Bout...Castillo has ALWAYS Fought UP or DOWN to the Level of his Opposition...
Even if Hatton BEATS Castillo,REED Expects Jose Luis to Look like an ELITE Fighter N the Process...

I'll be watching, but I'm not looking forward to it. More than likely, this is going to be a sloppy clinch fest filled with rough house tactics and little to no effective punching (10 ounce gloves :slap: ). Hatton hasn't been exciting since 2004, and Castillo just might be shot.

Sorry my dude, but imma have to disagree with you on that statement. The fight COULD be exciting, but it could just as easily be a grapple fest. Whichever it will be depends on how well Castillo handles Hatton's tactics. Ricky is NOT trying to fight Castillo on the inside, trust me. He may do it in spots, but for the most part he's gonna try to outbox him the outside. If Castillo can time him from out there, and find a way to offset his holding, that I think Castillo not only wins, but gives Ricky an ass whuppin. If he doesnt adjust, then Hatton will hit and hold his way to victory.

Damn, even when we get important matchups, we degrade them.
How did we get so cynical.
BTW, I'm not excluding myself; I think that this fight will be Ruiz-Oquendo all over again :slap:, and I'll try my best to wait for a replay on Hopkins-Wright instead of buying it. But at least in both cases, I'll acknowledge they are big fights with top notch fighters in their respective group of wiehgt classes, and THAT's what makes them worth watching.

It may be good because of the up-close in fighting and body punching, but it also has real stink potential.

It depends. If Hatton is dominant it will be exciting, since Castillo doesn´t hold as much on the inside. If Hatton is troubled by Castillos bodywork, he´ll make it an ugly affair.

These guys don't count........For example, Vitaly Quitko was declared the champion by some, despite never defeating a champion, and having a resume infinitely worse then that of John Ruiz......So, if Quitko was a champion, then surely Hatton is PBF's leftover.

Castillo has definitely slowed - he's looked like less than stellar in his last two. Too bad Hatton isn't that good. I give Ricky the edge but he's not too bright in the ring. Castillo may not be able to outwork him but he's active enough - and he ain't as dense.

this will be an exciting fight. Even as horrible as Hatton has looked I think Castillo will force him to fight. Hatton has what it takes to brawl he just had a poor attitude and preparation the last couple of fights.
Same with CAstillo I think he will look better against Hatton. This fight will bring the best from both guys regardless of how they look agaisnt other oponents. :cheer:

I'm surprised you think it'll be exciting. Anytime Hatton fights a strong, come forward opponent he turns into the white Ruiz. Even back when he fought Tackie years ago, he hit and held his way to victory. Castillo is a helluva lot better than Tackie though. I still maintain my original prediction, Castillo stops him late.

If anything the location should favor Castillo if enough mexicans support him. Interesting fight even if it's not getting much attention. I am tired of Ricky Ruiz I will root for Castillo :blobbox:

Agree. Hopefully early, but I'd pick late, too.

Tackie's corner should have stopped the fight. Hatton brutalized him, just like the Vince Phillips massacre.

yeah. i thought it was pretty good. people went ape-shit because he didn't dominate his undefeated opponent, but i thought it had some nice exchanges, was competitive, and overall an entertaining fight.
one of the problems Castillo has is that he likes to work inside and so of course his opponents' number 1 defense against him is to hold him. and so more often than not, he has to contend with being held a great deal and obviously, this will detract from the excitement of the fight.

Hatton, at this point, is more boring than Castillo. However, don't for one fucking second suggest Castillo is not boring. Both are bottom 5 in that department. Hatton might be 2 or 3 and Castillo would be one behind. One great fight with Corrales, who was an exciting fighter, does not excuse the putrid career Castillo has had.

I actually enjoyed the first Mayweather-Castillo fight. It was interesting to see Mayweather tested like that, and the 11th round had some good trading on the inside.
The rematch however, was dull. Floyd win clearly by stinking out the joint.
