I guess i'm in the minority here but that's my 2 cents.....

And also imo, Castillo didn't win because of the weight....it was because he was always out of range when Coralles was about to attack. In and out, rather than just standing there and constantly training....
People thought that Morales would ko Barrera in their final encounter because of his 11 pound weight advantage....how wrong they were.
hagler and hearns only lasted 3 rounds great fight yes but short on other hand we had 10 rounds of great action one of best inside fighting ive ever seen non stop workrate and then we had if the fight wasnt great enough already corrales down twice in the 10th to come back and stop castillo in the same round one of the best rounds in boxing histroy if that isnt a great fight i dont know what is
