I'm hearing that Corrales-Castillo will take place in September (or Corrales will be stripped). How do you guys see that fight going down?
Personally, I picked Corrales to win the first fight, and shortly after the fight I was confident he'd win a rematch if it were to happen.
However, my opinion has changed after watching how both fighters have reacted weeks after their fight. Castillo wants a rematch very, very bad and he doesn't seem to be mentally effected by "The War" at all.
Corrales on the other hand seems very reluctant to fight Castillo again, his people don't want to fight Castillo again, and I just don't feel Corrales will have the same motivation to endure the punishment in the rematch like he did the first time.
My pick: Castillo TKO10 Corrales
This was the actual line. After the first knockdown, Goosen was screaming as he put the mouthpiece in "Get inside on him Diego, get inside!!!" Chico stayed out and as a result, Castillo decks him again. As Goosed puts another mouthpiece in Diego's mouth, he came up with THEEE SINGLE FUNNIEST line I've ever heard in this sport:
Disgusted and aloof as if he stopped caring, he sarcastically says in a semi-mocking tone:
"You better get inside on him now..." then just walks away expecting that Diego would just get knock the fuck out. lol I was in tears it was so funny.
And to all those people who believe Chico would have an easier time in a rematch by staying on the outside, you got his own trainer telling his fighter to fight inside AFTER BEING KNOCKED DOWN...now why is that? Why would you send a fighter to fight inside when he's hurt. Cuz Castillo was wrecking him when theres a little distance between them with right hands. On the inside, Chico was doing mad amount of damage with his short punches and combinations. Castillo was ripping the body, but Diego banked in with those compact left hooks. He had the superior hand speed. That's what impressed me about Corrales. He was able to do more than hold his own against Castillo inside. But as soon as Castillo takes a step back and gives his right hand some room, Diego started to get cooked. Only way for Corrales to win that fight was on the inside. Same goes for a rematch. Had to get up twice and spit his mouthpiece multiple of times but he got the job done.
one more knockdown and goosen would have stopped the fight
I disagrre if anyone wanted him to continue ti was Goosen.
After he washed his mouth piece he told him some shit like "You better get on him.
This is one thing I liked about Corrales that he listened like a little boy being yelled at by his father.
He was like yes sir and jumped around to continue fighting.
Again Corrales doesnt win this fight had he not pulled that stunt.
i don't know why corrales taking out the mouth piece is such a big deal for castillo fans , the logic behind this is that chico got extra time to rest and was able to re-cuperate , but castillo also got the same rest!!!! and corrales was still hurt worst than castillo because the 2 knockdowns , castillo did not attack corrales the way he should of and that is what led to him getting tkoed not the spitting of the mouthpiece.
Your missing the point, the hurt guy was given way to much time to recuperate because of something I think is in no way a part of boxing. What is this shit,guys train on how to spit the piece when in trouble now? It is bull and should not be viewed as the right thing. How would that rest period help Castillo it was in the beggining of the round he was well rested already.What led him to get tkoed was that he thaught he had it in the bag and opened up to much. Ive said it before Corrales won FINE but give my boy rematch and dont even think of pulling the same shit again.DQ
You really think corrales would of won had he not pulled that stunt?

one more knockdown and goosen would have stopped the fight
and corrales wouldve gone crazy over it. thats my point. i cant imagine him making the choice to quit a fight.
I think I will pick Castillo in the rematch. His durability suprised me. I had initially picked Corrales, then Castillo. I think Castillo wins a decision. There were two somewhat fluky things that happened that enabled Corrales to when.
1-Corrales spit out his mouthpiece TWICE to buy recovery time.
2-Corrales caught Castillo with a hail mary punch at the end....
I am not sure if fortune will favor Corrales so much again.
Either way, it was a great fight. The best lightweight fight in the last decade probably.....
I bet anything, had Goosen not been in his corner this fight ends with Diego quiting or Castillo by stoppage.
i'd have to disagree. i think diego would seriously not quit until he's dead in the middle of the ring. the guy kept getting dominated and knocked down by mayweather and he almost killed his corner for stopping the fight...
casamayor basically ripped his lips off and he went crazy at the doctor for stopping the fight...
i dont know, i just cant imagine him quitting, no matter how much punishment castillo was dishing out.
this has nothing to do with this post but i have been asking in the lounge for someone to help but no one has ,to get my siganture to work like a step by step because i can't figure it out and i see you have one at the end of your post all i get is a bunch of writing like this .
If you want to get a picture you should click on the little insert image icon next all the text options up top. Either that or you are supposed to wrap the web address of the picture with on one side and on the other. That should do the trick.
The one thing I have trouble with about your interpretation Bomber is that the entire fight had been ebbs and flows in favor of both guys. So I am not sure if after the ninth Chico should have been anymore down then after any other round that Castillo had won. Although that eye was really getting bad.
Your right it did give him a boost after he landed that last shot in the 7.
He came out in the 8th very much alive untill the final minute.
If you pay attention after the 5th or so Corrales would win the first part of the round then Castillo would win the end of the round.Diego said it himself,"I quit trying to hurt him after the 7th"The end of the 8th he dropped his mouthpiece purposley.
The ninth was a big round for Castillo and the even tide was turning for Castillo. The tenth Castillo dropped Diego right away and then you know what happened.
What I said about Joe and mentioning the mouthpiece is wrong. I just went back and heard the audio and he does mention it but not the way I thought I had heard it.

I don't think he wanted to quit Bomber. The 7th round was when Chico landed that monster left hook at the end & JLC's knees buckled & he almost went down. I don't know what kept him up but he was seriously hurt at the end of the round. If anything that probably gave Chico a boost knowing that he was wearing him out.

Hey shemue thx for the compliment! :boxing:
Where do I start... You cant compare the punishment that Castillo dishes out to the punishment that Mayweather and Casamayor bring to the table.There you have the proof, Corrales couldnt walk the next day. Mayweather mostly stunned him and Casamayor doesnt hit as hard and doesnt go to the body like Castillo. Did you listen to Joe Goosen in the corner?
He of all people should know his fighter after spending 11 weeks in camp in preperation for this fight.
In the later rounds all you would hear Goosen say was "Dont quit on me now" "Its all about balls Chico, dont quit on me."I bet anything, had Goosen not been in his corner this fight ends with Diego quiting or Castillo by stoppage.
Joe's sneaky ass had told Corrales about the mouthpiece in between rounds,I think it was 7 going to 8. He says to Diego "Remember the mouthpiece" and Diego nods his head.
This fight was won in part by Diego toughness but it was Joe's smarts that ultimitley gave Chico the victory.
I also heard what you heard with Goosen and was suprised that nobody else caught on to that. I can see how it could be interpreted that Goosen was convincing a fighter who wanted to quit no to, but it could also be that Goosen was just trying to keep his fighter's spirits up in a grueling fight by encouraging him to continue doing what he was doing. In addition to the mouth piece comment I thought it was funny after the second knockdown when Goosen tells him "You gotta fucking get it done now" (or something along those lines). I really think Goosen is just a straight up great trainer. Where other trainers are spouting stuff like "don't get hit", "keep punching him", and "you gotta want it", Goosen really seams to be conversing and discussing strategy with his fighters. He really just seems to be on a different level with that stuff. Casamayor should never have let Goosen slip away from him because without him I am highly doubtful that my favorite fighter would have been able to pull of the great boxing performance that he did in the rematch with Joel.

first off you are very good poster ,but i have to disagree with you that chico wanted to quit , the man has no quit in him mayweather knocked him on his ass 5 times his dad stoped the fight, did you see chico's reaction he wanted to kill his dad for stoping th fight , also against casamayor he was knocked on his ass again like 3 times and cameback to knock casamayor down and started to gain momentum until the doctor stop the fight because of the cut in his mouth did chico act glad the fight was stoped ?? no he wanted to continue . he has shown time and time again he is all heart . he threw the mouth piece to get some more rest , not because he wanted to quit, if that was the case he would of done what freitas did in their fight and say i don't want no more plain and simple .

Did you see his body languange during the fight?
He spit it out in the eight purposly and took it with his glove purposly meaning to many people he wanted to quit.
A man that does this for a living should be able to walk the next day on his own, guess what he couldnt. I think that should do it.

Just remind me guys, who won the fight?
Most of you seem to think that Chico is mentally and physicaly finished - what is this observation based on?

sheeit. maybe you can answer this . why didn't castillo jump on corrales when the fight resumed after the second knockdown in that round? he got the benefit of extra seconds rest. was he hurt? corrales knocked him cuckoo.
in an interview goosen made corrales fight iside with castillo. corrales was lucky. in a rematch corrales makes this an easier win. he's more intelligent and listens to his corner.
this will be a different fight.
corrales wanted to go on to bigger money and better matches. but even if he's forced to the rematch castillo diserves it. it will be an easier win for corrales second time around with less fireworks. it shows what heart and confidense corrales has, to want to fight tszyu. i think its bull what one of the previous posters said about corrales mentally breaking down in rematch ,thats stretching it. hell he wants to go on and make a bigger payday fighting a harder fight against tszyu!
You have a good point but maybe he thinks he can beat Tzsu in different way.The only way to beat Castillo is to jump on him early like he did. They didnt want the fight to go to later rounds when Castillo turns into a monster when his opponent is tired is when he turns up the heat. Who knows I see him as traumitized and doesnty want any more of Castillo. The point is they went to war and Corrales even though won came out more injured and mentally broken down than Castillo.
I have no idea if Castillo is shot or not only the rematch will tell the story. I dont think even Castillo knows.
Listen, this is not worth arguing over, sorry if I misinterpreted what you were saying. Either way, I think Corrales is going to be just as fresh in the second fight as he was during the first and am just wondering when the signs of age are going to kick in for Castillo. I also think that there will be a rematch before the year is out (December perhaps) and all questions will be answered then.
No doubt both guys took much punishment.
To me the most hurt fighter in this was Diego, the signs are all there. If rematch happens it will bring Diego flashbacks of the pain he had to endure the first time he will want to quit sooner this time. Like I said Castillo wont fuck up this time around.
Castillo could be shot but we have to wait and see, I think he is out for revenge and Ive never seen Castillo get so personal.
The rematch will happen in November if it happens this year.
