He's also a bigger slower Hatton.
I think that he'll be Floyd's tuffest fight to date...but I still believe that he'll win.
Castillo, IWO, was the hardest hitter that Floyd has ever faced...Corrales & Gatti can crack too...& they connected...but not as effectively as Castillo.
The factor is going to be that Baldo can take a lot of punishment...but can he take repeated bullseye punches is the question.
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
