Same. Wide. Castro was a threat because he could punch, but his work rate was lousy at times and he would just walk forward on McCallum, getting smacked for his troubles. McCallum would have beaten him something like 117-111

The Body Snatcher WUD 12 or 15 after outworking Castro with jabs, counters and great body punches.

Castro was one of those boxers not a lot of people will have known about.
Some of these Argentinian fighters are tough and extremely talented.
Might sound a bit off but Jorge would likely give almost everyone a tough fight, Mike McCallum included, because he didn't have a big fanfare surrounding him by no means indicates he wasn't capable of having it.
If I'm honest in a one off prime he would give Mike McCallum a lot of problems.
I'd lean towards McCallum but Mike would have to be on his game with this guy.

It would be similar to Castro-Jones jr or Castro-Norris. Castro would land some very good punches here and there but McCallum's iron chin would take it and then he'd come back to win almost every round imo. McCallum by unan imous decision.

Not sure about that.
