Castillo Weighs in at 140; Fight Cancelled.

[amat]

If he doesn't lose weight....the fight is off.

Promoter Bob Arum is furious at Castillo. "This is a complete disgrace," said Arum. "As far as I'm concerned, I do not represent him. If I was Corrales, I wouldn't fight him. This is a disgrace to the sport of boxing."

UPDATE: Castillo has two hours to lose two pounds. Period. The Nevada commission will not allow him to lose more, saying it is medically unsafe. If he can't lose two pounds, apparently there is no fight.

Oh he'll lose two pounds if that is all he has to do. Can you say LAXATIVES?

Why do you think Castillo is pullin this shat AGAIN?

[albsur2006]

That's fucking bullshit. I'm so sick of Castillo. He supposedly weighed in at 139 on Monday and he couldn't lose 4 pounds in 4 days. He's so fucking unprofessional. Castillo's camp wants to make Corrales look bad because people are gonna be disappointed because technically Corrales would be the one stopping the fight. I don't blame Diego one bit this time, in fact, he shouldn't fight Castillo this weekend, end of story. This is so much bullshit, if Castillo is killing himself this much and he still weighs 139.5, how the fuck is he gonna make 140 to fight Hatton. It's just so disgustly brazen and unprofessional. God damn.

[amat]

It's intentional. It has to be. If he had an injury like he says he did last time then he would have communicated his problems to his promoter like he did last time. This is intentional, it has to be if Arum was taken by surprise like this. I'm all for bending the rules IN THE RING, but this is just a disgrace. Unbeleivable that a world class fighter like Castillo would do something like this.

And the Nevada commission says it's unsafe for Castillo to lose more then 2 lbs, WHAT ABOUT THE GUY WHO ACTUALLY MADE THE WEIGHT AND EXHAUSTED HIMSELF! Damn this is so unreal.

Right when I was excited about boxing again, Castillo pulls this shit. In fact, I could even see him weighing 136 or 137. I could deal with that because at least he lost pounds since Monday. But the mother fucker put on weight since Monday and barely made the light welterweight weight. Fuck this dude, Corrales should say fuck the fight and head straight to his lawyer's office and sue the shit out of Castillo.

[killersheep]

so is it officially off?

CC returned. I found out that it wasn't PPV yestarday and got all excited. Now I barely even want to see the fight because Chico got jobbed.

[amat]

No. Castillo has 2 hours to lose 2 pounds. No more, no less. If he doesn't, no fight.

[amat]

Well...

*Update*
Jose Luis Castillo has failed to make weight again. For the second time today, Castillo weighed in at 140, then 139.5 after trying to sweat off the pounds for two hours. The ball is now in Diego Corrales' court whether he wants to fight or not. The bout would be a non-title affair like their second fight, in which Castillo also failed to make weight. Stay tuned...

[Snakey]

Oh this is bullshit, i say castillo should lose all of his purse! He didnt even try, the fucking bastard. Now corrales is a warrior and will fight anyone and probably will fight an over weight castillo again but man he really shouldnt. Teach this guy a fucking lesson, come in over weight...lose millions of dollars. He knocked corrales out the first time with extra weight and now he hopes to do the same, rediculous! Unexcusable....fuck off castillo, move up in weight or lose the weight!

[amat]

What does Corrales do? He is screwed basically. I mean this is a HUGE advantage for Castillo and while it would be a HUGE victory for Corrales, is it worth it? I don't think it is. I really don't. If Corrales denies Castillo the time of day then you won't hear a peep out of me. I would do it. It's so unfair that Corrales trains, he shows up game and ready to go but Castillo pulls this bullshit. I didn't want to say it but fuck Castillo. I love the way he fights but he crossed the line, and he crossed it by 5 pounds. That's an entire weight division!

Damn right mate! He said he was sick of people asking about his weight....well you didnt make it again so you better have on fucking good explanation! These a dirty tactics and if corrales says no to him then i dont think anyone should bitch coz this is down right fucked. Castillo needed to get a better diet going this time around, he said he had one....now this, unfuckingbelievable!

[amat]

And last time, Corrales took the fight like a man and lost, then EVERYONE said Corrales was outclassed and picked him to lose this time around. People use the mouthpiece to counteract that. What Corrales was smart and he was punished accordingly. What Castillo is doing is cheating. It's immoral.

So say Corrales takes this fight...and gets knocked out. Will people pu an asterisk over this fight like they didn't last fight? History tells us they won't. Castillo needs to get lost. He doesn't deserve to be in the ring tomorrow night. He can weigh 138 for Rolando Reyes...but 140 for Diego Corrales? Something isn't right.
