It's still 4 months away, but I'm looking foward to this fight. Any thoughts on this match up that's going down on 6/23?

Hatton's an exciting, one-dimensional fighter. Castillo's a brawler with terrific boxing skills, that gave Mayweather his toughest fight.
Could you picture Hatton doing that?

It's a great match-up, to say the least. I feel that Castillo will have the advantage in power. They are both sluggers, which makes me doubt even more that this fight will result in a knockout. I think Castillo will take this one in a hard-fought shootout.
As this one starts off, I think both men will start strong. I see both men going toe-to-toe, which won't be good for Hatton. Hatton almost got knocked out by a so-so puncher. I expect Hatton to be knocked down in this fight. Castillo is capable of giving Hatton a very bad night. Hatton may fare very well against Castillo if he fights a smart fight. I think Castillo will shock Hatton with a late-round stoppage.

This will be a great fight and i really think Hatton will put it all together in this fight because he will have an opponent that he won't have to look for and you'll see Hatton at his best. Good speed and power and he will shock everyone and tko Castillo in round 7. You heard it here first!

Castillo in a six round knockout, the only fighter that even Floyd respects in the game right now is Castillo. Hatton is a bum and has a punchers chance but that will not happen.

If you look at Hatton he likes the pressure and I don't think that Castillo has enough power to knock him out so as hatton keeps the pressure on Castillo is gonna get wore down because don't forget the body work that hatton likes to do to his opponenents...I think it comes down to conditioning and I would say hatton has the advantage in that department

Castillo will show the world what an overrated fighter Ricky Hatton really is.

Brent I believe that this will be a good fight. Hatton is very tough and a hard puncher but so is Castillio who I also think is a little better boxer. There will be some pretty fierce exchanges in this fight and a lot of action. I believe that Catillio wins a relatively close decision over Hatton in this one my friend.

Both fighters have decent records, by watching Castillos last 3 fights and Hattons I think they are well matched, Castillo is not as good as he was and Hatton has serious weight problems, Hatton if strong will stop Castillo with them hard punches with no doubt, I cant see castillo beating Hatton and am prepared to put a bet on with anyone here,
