"There was a mood of shock and gloom in Waldemiro Ponto's corner after the world's third ranked bantamweight absorbed the second defeat of his career and his first knockout. In the opposite corner, the fans had burst into the ring and were hauling Chucho Castillo about in triumph. The action took place at Plaza Monumental in Juarez, where a crowd of about 10,000 watched Castillo score a stunning knockout. Pinto, trying to shake off the effects of the Mexican's Sunday wallop, said; 'It was a good hard punch and it caught me square. Castillo's a good fighter. He'll do all right.' Pinto then groggily pointed to the left side of his chin, where Castillo's right glove landed on target after 1:30 of the 3rd round." -El Paso Herald Post
