I'm sure some of you know of this one, but some people may not have seen it.
On par with Corrales coming back against Castillo.
Inspiring really...AMAZING.

"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
Thanks.
Castro finished his career with a 130-11-3 (90 KOs) record.
Not too shabby for such a limited, slow footed Frankenstein from Argentina.
The man had 144 fights and was only stopped in TWO of them !
Absolute beast of a human being.

Castro is a hard b*****d
He Who Is Brave Is Free
Wisdom, compassion and courage are the three universally recognised moral qualities of men.
this is a classic from a good few years ago - not watched for a few years
one of those where two non-mainstream guys throw up a classic.
Am now going to find Cark Thompson v Ezra Sellars and watch that
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
good vid, enjoyed it, Castro was taking a beating
thompson was in some crackers Mark TKO, was taking a beating against a few fighters and came back, rothman (spelling!) and haye off the top of my head
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
amazıng comeback.ı woulda stopped ıt about 5 seconds before that lefthook.
La Mano de Dios, that's what Castro calls the punch that knocked Jackson out cold, I'd say it was more of a comeback than the Corrales/Castillo fight cause Castro was taking such a one sided beating, crazy to think that the rematch would be such a one sided affair in Castro's favor
That was a classic punch out of no where, Castro was getting a fearful beating and I was begging for the fight to be stopped before that turn around.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Lol love how Jim Watt around 3.30 says "This woulda been stopped in Britain a long time ago"...No shit..Mcloskeys scratch springs to mind. As does JC vs Manfredo. Rob us of potential great moments
That is why our sport is the best,things can turn around in a blink of a eye,loved seeing that fight again , thanks
This was when King was stacking cards on PPV. I remember Tony Lopez going balls out against Chavez and then this...this one left you literally. It def ook a bit outta Jackson who was a beauty to watch box
Epic stuff. Thanks for the flashback Hulk, good call!
One of my all time favorites...
The ring smart and quick thinking of "La Locomotora" Castro to use the ref shirt to clean/wipe the blood off his eye to clear his vision is something I always mention when talking about this fight. He does it twice, I don't even know if that's a illegal or if there's even a rule that doesn't allow a fighter to use the refs shirt to wipe his face. Whatever the case is I find it to be an interesting moment in the fight.
Also Castro is considered a legend in Argentina...
Some of his opponents win, lose or draw consist of;
Ramos
Norris
Shinji
Duran
RJJ
Andrews
Johnson
Rothman
Jackson
Jirov
JC Gomez
Briggs
Not to mention he fought for 2 decades...
