Lastly,if you are getting a different score EACH time you score a fight,then you are not doing a proper job and you should not count your tally. NEVER adjust your criteria,the judges don't get to.
I explained this badly. Castillo had never previously been beaten by a KO. They were all TKO/cuts stoppages previously. Nobody had ever kept the man down for a ten count.

As for Tony, say what you like about willingness, but you get credit for what you do in your career, not what you want to do. Yeah he was ballsy enough to give Williams a shot, but he lost the fight. People have knocked Hatton for his loss to Mayweather, who is the best in the friggin world. My point is, people are rating Margo higher when he's actually done less in his career. I just think the mentality of some people on here is pretty fucking stupid at times.

These are very good points... I was just watching Castillo Johnson last night... Castillo of old was fantastic... All heart.

I agree with the Tony comment. He is rated high for not just what he's done but how he's been avoided. He is a dangerous fighter and people mistake being dangerous for being better. I like Tony a lot but don't quite rate him as high as most people. I appreciate the fact he gave Williams a shot and it shows that he's in it to win it but at the end of the day... It doesn't make him a better fighter. It earns him fans though. I respect him for that. I pic him over Cintron again.
