    Are you speaking of me? In my personal opinion, nobody is fit to judge him. You were not there, you have no idea the circumstances surrounding these events. Did you know him? Do you know his wife?

    keep his personal life out the picture, we remeber corrales for what he did inside of the boxing ring and not what he did outside of it R.I.P chico

    Corrales was involved in more entertaining bouts than just the first Castillo bout (a masterpiece) and the first Casamayor fight.

    The title-winning fight over Garcia was excellent, the Juuko fight was good, the Freitas fight was entertaining, the Castillo rematch was a fun short fight, and the last fight versus Clottey had plenty of action as well.

    Corrales had an extremely ugly and dark side, unfortunately not that uncommon to boxers, but was an easy FIGHTER to love.

    Had he not cheated and taken the cowards way out, I would agree with you.
    Good boxer but people give the guy too much respect. **** him he deserved death for putting other people's lives at danger. **** anyone defending him. You guys have never lost anyone to a drunk driver that had no place on the road.
