Comments Thread For: Stephen Fulton climbs off floor to eke out SD win over Carlos Castro

Lol he won fair but made it hard on himself by trying to fight head-on like devin did against ryan.

Lol

Ryan rocked and almost K.O Devin in the first round with the left hook in counter

Castro landed more punches

Fulton got a gift

I don't know what it is about the love affair with Fulton judging but he seems to get his hand raised with these extremely close fights like Figueroa. Thought Castro won. Giving Fulton the first 4 rounds was unbelievable. Fulton is taking a beating in this division. But with this kind of judging he'll always win...except when getting knocked out.

Exactly.

Fulton is a B class champion, no more.

His defense is overrated, he is always eating a Lot of punches in some fights.

This guy Castro reminds me of Chon Zepeda.

Lol fulton landed more power punches and had higher overall connect percentage. You said fulton is B class champ and in his next fight he performs even better, then does that mean he is A class champion lol. Dude just stop being a reactionary after 1 fight.

Similar to Crawford-Madrimov without the belt on stake, the judge basically giving all the close rounds to the A-side Fulton three of the first four rounds was the difference maker.

Going in reverse order, I personally saw R5 and on as near even with the KD being the only difference...ie 5R Castro 10-8, 6R Fulton 10-9, and 7-10 being two a piece making it 57-56 Castro. Thus for the first four rounds Castro needed to get a split or better while Fulton needed 3-1. Granted I thought it would be a split but given the promoting structure I can't say a rather biased 3-1 to Fulton is worst card since sliced bread. Now a 4-0? Get new glasses or a new job or both.

Either way, a light weight division guy around age 30 like Fulton had no business sitting around for 14 months, because activity matters. Part of the reason I want inactive beltholder aka Vargas to hurry up and lose to Figueroa or vacate and go to 130, he hasn't done crap in two years and yet clogging up the line.

how do you now Fulton didn't want to fight sooner? PBC is having difficulty keeping its huge roster of fighters active - not enough dates. That's why some have left.

Fulton got another gift. He's dangerous but he doesnt really look like the goods.

Credit to Fulton for coming on strong in the last round.
Castro was very good -- if he had won round 10, he would have won the fight.

[Boricua181]

Fulton demonstrated heart, and toughness, but he didn't win this fight by split decision or in any other manner that you can think of.
Castro really did hurt him, several times during the fight, dropping him in the process, and possibly leaving him with lingering affects.
I couldn't believe that the judges gave the win, that was a disgraceful robbery.
