Huge play on Hatton. In his prime, JLC outclasses Hatton, but at this point in his career, Castillo is a shot fighter. He's taken an absolute beating in his career. From the second fight with Floyd to the Casamayor fight, and of course the legendary matches with Chico Corrales, Castillo has taken too many clean shots. The years of struggling to make weight at 135, when it was obvious he wasn't a natural lightweight, has also taken it's toll. He looked awful in his last fight against Herman Ngoudjo, a 'B' class fighter, in a fight he could've easy lost a decision.
Now, he's going against the premier fighter at 140. Castillo's had a great career, but it's simply asking too much for him to win this fight. No longer being the bigger, stronger fighter is a huge disadvantage for JLC, and something he's never experienced.
Hatton made a mistake in moving up to 147 to take the Collazo fight, a match in which he was fortunate to get a decision. Now that he's back at 140 with a match under his belt at that weight since the Collazo fight, he should be as strong as ever.
Again, in his prime, Castillo wins this fight, but at this point in their career's, Hatton has far more left in the tank.
5* Hatton -180.

HBO everyone. Fighters are making their way to the ring. Minutes from the start.
If I was betting this I would go with the under 10.5
The crowd is nuts for Hatton. Singing their Hatton song as the round went on.
Round 1 goes to Hatton.
Wow, a body shot takes Castillo out in the 4th.
Castillo goes to a knee, and didn't even try to stand up. Took the count, and the fight ends.
whoever betted hatton wins by knockout is rich!!
