The castillo triangle would get more (any?) credibility if the gap in time was small.

But it was five years. Andin that intervening time, Castillo got KO'd in one of history's most brutal fights, had severe weight problems, and looked pretty crappy in the two preceding fights to Hatton.

Those are just facts as well.

I can beat up Jake LaMotta today. That would not impress you. At a certain point, you have to acknowledge that a fighter isn't the same.
