He aint a welterweight, most of the welters mentioned are taller with a better reach and stronger.
Well Castillo has fought the majority of his career under 140 and most of the fighters in that division are bigger than him but u dont seem to have a problem with him fighting Ricky......
5'8 with a better reach than Rick. Why would I have a problem? He has trouble making weight below 140 which is why he failed to make weight for the second Corrales fight and is now fighting at 140lb
The point is he has moved up, and if he loses you wint say thats an excuse, yet u use moving up as an excues fo Ricky not fighting guys like cotto and pbf. Good fighters can move up one or two divisions and still be effective. Am i wrong?
