Boxer Jose Luis Castillo claims he'll beat Ricky Hatton

joseMexican boxer Jose Luis Castillo has said he is not impressed with opponent Ricky Hatton's unbeaten record, and he has sworn to end this record in their fight on 23 June.

Ricky Hatton, 28, has won all of his 42 fights but Jose Luis Castillo, 33, who has lost seven of his 55 bouts, says that Ricky Hatton hasn't met fighters as good as he is yet and that's why he has won before.

Jose Luis Castillo said: "I don't think for one minute Ricky Hatton's record bears any comparison with mine,

"He is 42-0 but things like unbeaten records can be very misleading. I am not bothered about it. It will end."

Carrying on his claims, Jose Luis Castillo added: "I have fought and beaten some of the best fighters in the world whereas Hatton hasn't got names like Diego Corrales, Floyd Mayweather or Joel Casamayor on his record."

And although he did admit that Ricky Hatton is a good boxer, Jose Luis Castillo boasted:

"Hatton is a good, strong fighter, but I am going to knock him out."
