Another great fighter has passed away. The World Boxing Association on Instagram: "The boxing world bids farewell to Jorge “Roña” Castro, one of Argentina’s most memorable fighters. With his trademark toughness and relentless heart, Castro etched his name into boxing history by winning the WBA Middleweight World Championship in 1994, earning his place among the sport’s world champions. The WBA extends its deepest sympathies to his loved ones and the Argentine boxing community. His legacy will live on. Rest in peace, champion. ️ #Boxing #Boxeo #WBA #WBABoxing"
Jorge Castro was Noooooooooooo great fighter. Not even remotely close. RIP to him, but lets not let death blind facts. Gomez is the only great that died this week. Jorge Castro was merely a "good" fighter. Tough as nails though.
Castro was stereotypically Argentine. No great skills but bottomless endeavour and heart. Would absolutely have picked up belts today. Hopkins murders him though.
