The 22-year-old Castro, who won some of the worldโs most prestigious amateur titles before turning pro, has stopped all of his pro opponents.
Referee Jack Reiss ended Saturdayโs super-featherweight bout with 19 seconds left in the first round.

Mikey Garcia Suffers Upset Loss
In the main event of a card promoted by Eddie Hearn, former world champion Mikey Garcia (40-2) of Oxnard lost by majority decision to Spainโs Sandor Martin.
Sandor received the edge in scoring on two cards (both 97-93) while the third judge called the welterweight bout a draw.
The result was a massive upset in that until Saturday, Martin hadnโt beaten a notable opponent while compiling a 38-2 record.
โItโs the biggest moment of my career,โ said Martin. I always said I was going to do it and Iโve done it.โ
Said Hearn: โSandor Martin just got more and more confident as the night went on. It was a massive win. A huge win for Spanish boxing. Thatโs probably the biggest win in the history of Spanish boxing.โ
