    Default Anyone see Montiel v Castillo?Thoughts?

    I didn't see that coming! Martin Castillo, a great amatuer beating lots of other top fighters and starting his career off well,having a couple of top wins but never really took off. Cuts hindered him.Lay offs etc.

    As for Montiel,I just didn't see this coming. I mean he's choked in his 2 biggest fights but what a turn around!

    Perfect faint then left hook in the first round put an end to any chance Castillo had in this fight. Montiel dominated throughout and looked good, Mijares next?

    Castillo looked shot, good win for Montiel but I think any decent flyweight would have bowled him over.

    The one thing i noticed was that Montiel had much quicker hand speed than Castillo, and that was the key. Castillo basically lost when he first went down in the 1st round, but what a body shot from Montiel to finish it off that was perfect.

    Yeah, that was a vicious body shot. I hope we get to see Montiel vs Mijares.

    Castillo looked so good in the first Munoz fight but really hasn't looked the same since for some reason, maybe a bad night for Munoz but still.

    I actually didn't see this one though, only one of the fights I missed. I thought they had both looked unimpressive in their last few fights and picked Castillo which was obviously a shitty pick. Oh well.

    Montiel looked flawless, and as a result people are looking for reasons why Castillo was poor, such as him being shot. However Montiel was just the better fighter on the day. A class performance.

    I think Montiel is the best in super flyweight right now, tough fights for him would be Gorres, Vic and Mijares. I think he's going to bantamweight soon though.

    Yeah it was a nice shot alright. Castillo probably could have got up but just didn't. I suspect he knew what would have followed. The commentators were talking Mijares straight after. "The boxer V The puncher".

    More then anything I think the surgerys Castillo has had played dividens here. The day I met Castillo hi's face looked pretty beat up with scars on his eye lids his nose and around the face from where he had his surgery done.

    I predicted a Montiel win but never did I imagine it would be by TKO.

    I've said this in another thread.

    I'm not a Montiel fan, but I wouldn't take anything away from any boxer who puts in the work but...

    I think the Castillo in that Ring was a man who was tired of fighting. I think mentally he din't want to be there and was just waiting to get out of there...
