    What did you mean by this:

    "It’s what Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo should’ve been."

    when reffering to Vasquez/Marquez?

    :dunno:

    Corrales-Castillo was WELL on it's Way to Being a CLASSIC Trilogy, Until Castillo's Weight Issues COMPROMISED it...

    He was OVERWEIGHT for the 2nd Fight & when he Came N Overweight for the Rubber Match, Chico Said "Fuck it"...A Very DISAPPOINTING End to what SHOULD have Been a Classic Trilogy...

    w/Vasquez-Marquez, we have NONE of that Exterior BULLSHIT...Just 2 Action Packed Bouts...I Seriously Doubt EITHER Guy has Weight Issues & we'll Get a THRILLING, SATISFYING End to this Trilogy, UNlike Corrales-Castillo...

    I'm glad that the general public never talks about the rematch like it never happened. The first fight was such a great fight that it seems like they only fought once. Castillo's weight issue and thievery in the scales tarnished his reputation and left a bad taste in many people's mouth.

    FAILING to Make Weight the 1st Time wasn't COOL, but it Didn't Really TARNISH the Corrales-Castillo Series N REED's Opinion...

    But when Catillo FAILED to Make Weight for the 3rd Fight, it SHITTED on what SHOULD have Been 1 of Boxing's BEST Trilogies EVER...@ that Point ,U COULDN'T Blame Chico for NOT Fighting Castillo Ever Again...

    Like U Said, Thank GOD for the 1st Fight...

    In the end, there was never anything really resolved between these two, although overall, I think Castillo had the edge over the 14 stanzas.

    when I saw that you had the last reply here, I was expecting you to mock me for being a stupid illiterate virgin. What gives? :dunno:
