    this is what i want to believe. it's what i hope is true. castillo got mad cash for diving. sets up the pbf/hatton extravaganza, and pbf doesn't have to deal with mosley.

    and body-shot ko's are the only ones you wanna try to fake. head shots too risky - you can fuck it up and have to fake losing your legs and all that shit. liver shot dive? just take a knee and pretend you can't breath.

    :lol::lol:

    Worse thread ever. :doh:

    I know that you're joking, but still, what's the point?

    In any event...Castillo's reaction to the punch was 100% genuine, anything less and he's a better actor than anyone in the history of Hollywood. He was hurt badly. It was a LEAPING body shot..you don't see many of those.

    True, but please don't tell me you are comparing both shots.

    Castillo definitely took a dive against Hatton. I saw it clearly. Watch when both guys are in a clinch and Hatton's lips are moving in Castillo's ear and I think he said to Castillo the word "Now.....", and then he delivered the body shot and Castillo did his acting job.
    If you have the tape, examine this if you can. It may have been a fix.

    if he got paid enough i would. i'm looking forward to his next fight. i'm sure it will be against someone tough so he can redeem himself. he's not finished yet, although he better make sure he can use 8 oz gloves. his shots don't have that thud on em when he uses the 10s.

    so you despise those who have styles you dont prefer and yet you would remain loyal to your beloved fighters even if they were exposed for their lack of integrity and professionalism? :lol:

    Nice, it's always fun to believe something if you makes you happy even if it delusional.

    I'd also like to believe Holyfield owes his whole heavyweight career to HGH abuse and other steroids, and that Tyson would've beaten Holyfield regardless in November 1991 because Holyfield was more brawl-happy back then, hadn't used steroids as long to really gain his strength, and Tyson actually attacked the body with some consistency then. I'd also like to believe that Tyson only lost to Lewis because of the excessive use of anti-depressants which made him a zombie.

    Actually I only think the 2nd one is completely unreasonable and delusional.

    But tell me, do you also believe that Oscar threw the Hopkins and Mayweather fights in order to sign them to the Golden Mafia or get an option on them?

    castillo was already twice exposed for lack of professionalism, yet this goofballs temible-lust remained strong

    I have to admit I had my suspicions. I mean, Castillo is Gangster, is Hispanic, speaks Spanish, wears a sequined gown and a headband with something written on it.....how could he lose to plain old Ricky Hatton??
