;) will take place today, outdoors at Caesars Palace Roman Plaza. Corrales and Castillo are scheduled to step on the scales at 2:30 pm PT. I'll make the updates. If anyone has anything on it when it happens, more than welcome to make updates here.
Still doesnt matter homey! corrales was the one hurt exactly so castillo had extra time also to regain some energy to throw more flurries! it was only like 10 seconds.
Please guys stop tarnishing a good legendary fight! this was no meldrick taylor vs chavez! now that was a straight up scandal! who stops a fight with 5 seconds in the 12th and final round? hahaah
who said he needed energy? and it does matter had corrales had that extra time to recover he doesnt recover at all. that is the point, it was early in the round castillo had energy why would he want extra time?
recover from what? he wasnt the one getting dropped.the only person that it benefitted was corrales.

breaking news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Jose Luis Castillo has just weighed in at 147 even for tonight's super fight against Diego Corrales. Corrales did not have to weigh-in again, but Castillo had to make 147 after coming in 3.5 pounds heavy yesterday. The fight is on!
I dont really get that mouth piece incident! people think oh thats cheating ! how can it be? Castillo got time to recover too! its both equal! so please guys stop complaing the real cheat is Castillos personal trainer or doctor! him sticking his foot underneath the scale is straight up cheating.

new rule!!!!
It will be an automatic two-point deduction if either fighter intentionally spits out a mouthpiece during tonight's rematch between Diego Corrales and Jose Luis Castillo. In addition, both corners are required to have a second clean mouthpiece ready to go at all times. The new rule stems from the first Corrales-Castillo fight when after a knockdown Corrales took out his mouthpiece. The delay bought him forty seconds of recovery time instead of the allowed ten seconds. Corrales was penalized one point by referee Tony Weeks, and then proceeded to win by TKO moments later.
hahah 40 seconds!?!?!
20-25 tops
Itd be great. But that was dirty as hell for him to do that and for his corner to tell him to do that.
fightnews saw it there, it be great if I made the rules. dont you think?
Is this your rule or did they put this in? Yeah, that was nasty of Diego to spit out his mouthpeice. If dude had a defense he wouldn't need to do this.

This fight should be called off Gossen was on las vegas radio saying castillo's people were basically dragging him up the steps to the weight in this is not good.
We all know what a tough guy castillo is and that he was probably killing himself to make weight and just could'nt do it, know not being able to rehydrate properly before the fight this is BS man this should be called off now.
No matter who wins there going to be a big ? now people will bitch about this till there's a third fight
Fuck this fight is over before it even starts.Castillo had to muster everything he last fight.This is not a good sign at all.

here's the physician that cheated for Castillo
Man, boxing really needs to reevaluate the way it does weigh-ins. I'm not sure what they can do. Really, if Castillo is struggling that badly to make the weight, he should not be fighting in that weight class. If he steps into the ring heavily dehydrated, his brain is going to get destroyed in that fight.
Man how did castillo come in overweight.. this sucks. I hope his body is ok and he isnt going to be damaged internally
it's not his body, but his mind...psychologically i mean.

Surely you will defend your Mexican love interest til the end? Or you gonna admit that Castillo is just as big a cheater as Corrales is supposedly? You think it's very professional of Castillo to not be able to make weight? I mean, is that sort of thing okay in this sport? I'm curious as to your excuse, Knives...
It doesnt matter to me.
I will ignore any excuse a corrales supporter has to offer anyway.
So what's your excuse for this cheating? You got any defense for your boy or you gonna just sit at your keyboard like a little bitch?
