    Castillo was overweight in the rematch and Corrales was never the same after fight one. Of course, you’re more fit to cast judgement than I because you’ve survived all sorts of classic wars in the ring.

    Umm didn't Corrales come in overweight in the Clottey fight. Didn't he not have have of spitting out his mouthpiece when he was in trouble like in the first Castillo fight?

    If you want to talk about the Clottey fight, you’re discrediting yourself.

    I dont see it being much different then the mayorga fight ..corrales is wide open and all wrong for anyone with speed and power...Oscar's head movement would have corrales flinching ...which oscar would capitalize by slamming the hook home..and being that it's that version of oscar..who I felt really went for it all? He was a real gun slinger at that weight..I see him stopping Diego within 3 ...he wouldn't be able to miss

    If you mean at 130, then Corrales.
