His last two fights. (which, recall, are his only two fights since he KO'd Chico in October of 2005)

Especially the last one -- he looked terrible there. SD.

Granted, Castillo--even more than most fighters--doesn't seem to put nearly the effort in when its not a big fight. But on the other hand, he's had a longer career than Hatton and has been in with much better competition and way more wars.

If this fight were 3 years ago, I'd say wide UD or TKO for Castillo. Today, it's way more of a pick'em for me. If JLC comes in fresh and determined though, he still wins.
