Castillo Weighs in at 140; Fight Cancelled.

[Purist]

Did you ever consider that since before the first Mayweather fight Castillo has had MAJOR problems making 135 and that his body simply can't do it anymore Or are you assuming he cheated and just came in 140 for the hell of it after months of training and trying to get it down

Simply put, he can't make the weight anymore, it's not his weihgt class anymore, losing the weight would just drain him and make him weaker. He shouldn't fight at 135 anymore because he can't make the weight. It's not his weight anymore, 140 is apparently. Simply put just as Corrales said that he knows Castillo can't make the weight anymore so he doubts there will be a fight he is right.

And whats with all these people saying Castillo is a cheater? If his body can't make weight anymore his body can't make weight anymore, simple as that. It's not like he WANTED to come in at 140 and have the right called off. He may have tried his hardest to make 135 and it didn't happen.

He made 138 for Reyes. He couldn't make 139 for Corrales. He claimed he was at 139 on Monday, he weighed in at 140. He didn't report troubles in camp or concerns about making weight in camp, and lashed out against reporters because they kept asking. Well? Sorry. I'm usually the first to take a fighters side over out of the ring things, but I have 0 sympathy for Castillo. He gets everything he has coming to him.

Didn't say to have sympathy. And if he made 138 for Reyes(originally supposed to be Corrales which he could get to 35) Then why would he NOT want to come in 135 for this one? I'm pretty sure he worked very hard and his body just won't do it anymore. I don't think he has it planned.

Corrales is a class act for even dealing with this sob. He has given him respect and even supported with him in during situation last time. Now in the twilight of his career(IMO) he is getting robbed of time, hard work at the gym, and a great trilogy that could define his career.

I never heard of these troubles versus Mayweather. He weighed in at 134 for that fight And if his body can't do it then he needs to tell. He kept quiet, hell he boldface lied to reporters on Monday and told them to get off his back about the weight. He never expressed any concerns for the weight issue and assured everyone countless times that he would make it easily, he just had rib problems for the second fight.

SRKO then you didn't look. it's a known he even had trouble making weight for Mayweather, it was on him that he had to train in 3 pairs of sweats during sparring during the training and there was always talk of him moving up. he had trouble making Lightweight even before that first Mayweather fight.


And as you said, he made 138 for Reyes, and that was supposed to be Corrales which he probably would have melted down the pounds to make 135 for that fight. If he would have made it then, why not now because he CAN'T. When he signed the contracts there was probably little doubt to him that he would make the weight, he just can't do it. I'm not saying NOT to comedown on him, but don't make it seem like he premeditated this from the day he signed the contracts!

Maybe not from day 1, but until I hear a damn good explanation, I don't think he had any intentions to fight this fight.

[cockey cockney]

This must be devastating for Corrales.

[smashcrusher]

They just interviewed Dan Rafael on ESPN News and he said he was up in Diego's hotel room and he is P!SSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now he can fight Juan Diaz. But it probably is frustrating. But Corrales said when Showtime had the live interview with him that there will be no fight, and they asked him why and Corrales said because I'm confident Castillo can't make weight anymore. he was right

When was this?

And sorry but Juan Diaz is no consolation. It's bullshit and EVERYONE in the Castillo camp should be hiding their head in shame. They fucked everyone over and there is no debating that.

This was in preperation before Corrales injured his rib. Showtime did a live interview with him and they asked him if he was confident and Corrales said he was extremely confident because he doubts there will be a fight. And then it carried on. It was before the third fight but before he injured his rib and Castillo had to fight Reyes.

Bullsh!t. Dude, enough with your lies. All you do is lie. If he said this, there would be some record of it on the internet. All you do is lie. You're a f@#kin' liar.

Starr is not a dude, so calm down. Now...Son of a bitch! MotherFukin Castillo!!! I am a big Castillo fan, but DAMNIT! DAMN YOU! How can you not at least lose two pounds? Piss or Shat it out man. Now the fukin fight is off!?? That sucks. I still cant believe the fight is actually 100% off. I mean it can't be.

[Samson3000]

Funny seeing as how today he said he expected him to weigh in at the weight. I feel TERRIBLE for Corrales. The poor dude was nearly in tears. If you are registered to boxingscene.com they have a video. He is furious, and basically echoes the same sentiment that we have been here.

Castillo like he wanted to give Corrales brain damage.
