HAS NO REGRETS Dave By MARVEN MOSS Canadian Press Staff Writer For a man once Canada's top name in the prize ring, Dave Castilloux's views on boxing might qualify as offbeat. Professional athletes shunted to the sidelines by age usually go reluctantly, the scent of winter- green lingering in their nostrils. Few turn down front office jobs. Virtually all become perceptive fans. But Castilloux--once Canadian champ in three weight divisions simultaneously--says candidly: "I'm just not interested in the & ° fight game. Don't get me wrong. ° I'm not bitter about my ring car- ¢ eer, It's just that I was fed up when 1 quit and nothing since has § happened to change that." FOUGHT 200 TIMES Castilloux is a dark-haired man * with ruggedly handsome features treated charitably by 14 years in the ring and more than 200 bouts. He retired in 1946 Now 43 and married with two children, he works as a freight handler with the CNR in Mont- real In his home there are no (ro- phies to recall heady years as Canadian champion in feather- OMHA PLAYOFFS Castilloux Canadian But, laughing, he admitted: "I "never made much either." BRILLIANT BOXER Castilloux fought with a 'bob-| and-weave style and was a bril- liant counter-puncher. One of his fans said Castilloux could bounce around the ring for a full three -. minutes with his hands at his side ~ and his opponent would still have trouble hitting him He won the featherweight crown in 1938 with a unanimous i decision over Jackie Callura of i. Hamilton. In 1941 he took the lightweight title by outpointing * Joey Bagnato of Toronto and added the welter championship with a decision over Maxie Ber- ger of Montreal the same year. Castilloux surrendered the " feather title' the following year when he was no longer able to make the weight.
