Completely disagree. Castillo fights alot like that Torres guy did, only he is a proven world class fighter who can go to war for 12 rounds with a granite chin. If Torres had simply been able to keep it up theres no way Cotto would have made it out of a couple of those rounds. I think it could be a great fight, but I don't see how there is any way you can say Cotto could win "easily".. NOONE beats Castillo easily. Miguels best chance to win would be to literally stink the place out, like Mayweather did in the 2nd fight.. And take no chances at all, but I would still favour Castillo because I think his skills are just as good as Cotto and he could work his way inside.
My bad,good point,no-one looks good against Castillo BUT you can't compare Torres and Cotto to Cotto and JLC because Torres was an unknown,Miguel did not know what to expect. Ans I can gurantee if Miguel can take 25 plus clean from Torres in that round,that Torres would not have stopped him. If that did not do it,what will?It's possible that Torres has more power than Castillo too. Castillo is skilled ut I don't think as much as Cotto,the boy has it all! Like I said,and as was evident when Chico Corrales left some room between himself and Castillo,JLC can be outboxed at a distance and Cotto's body shots will slow anyone down. I'm backing Cotto alllll the way,I have faith in this boy.
