Talked to Diego Corrales today.

Corrales is almost 6 ft, it must be hard to make weight in that body frame... 147 he will be comfortable and be stronger. It's not his punches, nor his frame, weight... it's his chin.. he has been dropped plenty of times by smaller guys... imagine what a Welter would do... BTW... do you think you can make the image in your sig smaller?

I luv Corrales but unless his punch power travels up with him and his punch resistance Gets better (which it should do) He is as good as KO'ed already! If it duz then we are in for sum amazeing fights my fellow fans! Cheers for posting this Animal

Keep Corrales away from any boxers. Or any slugger that know how to box. Corrales fighting Collazo is a "W" for Collazo. He fight Hatton, then Corrales is in his comfort zone, just keep him away from boxers. Mayweather, Freitas clearly outboxed him, Freitas was way ahead before calling it a day, and Casamayor out boxed Corrales in there third fight. You can make a case to keep him away from everyone. Folks for far to long have overrated his boxing skills so your right keep him away from boxers, not only does he stand a good chance at losing to them he just looks downright boring against them as well! Of course Diego needs toe to toe action but at what cost? In my mind his career has a couple three more fights left in him (maybe not even that many)...his days are numbered for sure but he is certainly going to go down in blaze of glory, look froward to it...sort of. Be curious to see that big left hook at 147, is it bigger and badder then ever, does it lose some steem, what? Its Diegos X factor!

@ 147... this is a Joke! He will get KTFO by any top fighter... I don't know if I'd say "joke" but I do agree that Corrales is done and that he will get KO'd by the top guys. Margarito or Cotto would annihilate him IMO. But guys like Judah, Cintron and Collazo I'd give him a chance against, though to me he would be the underdog in all those fights.

Corrales kept the fight VERY close against casamayor, i had corrales winning by a point as did many others. The freitas fight was a great fight, and he was ahead, but many at ringside had it tied going into the tenth. ANd Corrales closed the show like the champ he is. He stalks down boxers and if they arent careful and experienced, then they WILL get knocked out. Collazo doesnt have the experience he needs, corrales knocks him out brutally in the 8th or 9th rounds. Hatton would be a war, but i love both guys, top 3 favorite fighters, so i would NOT wanna see that fight

I'm not so sure I like the idea of Chico jumping 2 weight classes

i'm glad that corrales isn't trying to fight at 140, i think that it would be too much of s struggle for him, i was talking with my friend the other day about it saying that he barely made 139 at his last weigh-in,140 he would still be drainned, 147 would be best. for years corrales has been killing himself and fighting completely emaciated which has probably stifled his perforamces to his fullest potential. if you watch his fights and the weigh-ins you see that he is completely zapped, i've seen him being carried off the scales before and if you notice he doesn't break a sweat until late in the fight because he hasn't rehydrated from making weight. had that not been the case i bet his fights would've been far less competitive and he would defeat guys much more easily. i'm glad to here that chico is going to fight at 147, the only thing that he needs to do is take the transition slow and take a couple of tune up fights to get acclimated to the weight, because it's going to be a alot different at 147. i wish him the best of luck Chico is one of my absolute favorites a true Peoples Champ and a class act through and through. ( and don't try and bring up the whole ask his wife thing, chicks drive guys crazy, nuff said about that)

theres no way he is fighting Hatton any time soon, with Hatton busy with Castillo and at 140. I think he should fight Collazo, why not?? good cross roads fight and if he cant beat Collazo he cant be champ. It would be a good matchup right on, you work at McCarran my good friend works there too, his name is Marvin, not that you would know him i know that it's a big place but there is the off chance that you might. good to know that there is another Vegas head here.

whatta about zab judah??i think they should fight..they both need a big name fight so they should fight each other..

sweet. havent heard much from him. All his options at 147 are good for the fans. Collazo=war cotto=war margarito=war But let me ask you this. If WILLIAMS meets MARGARITO in March or something, and WILLIAMS wins, and COTTO ducks WILLIAMS, do u think CORRALES is a possible opponent for either WILLIAMS or COTTO???
