I am disgusted that SportsCenter’s top story was not Diego’s passing! That should be the first topic on all the sports shows and so far I haven’t seen it and it is really unfortunate.
Don't get on ESPN, It's just simply not as big a story because people don't care as much about boxing as they do other sports, they just cover what is the most popular, Corrales isn't that well known outside of people who watch boxing.
They dont have to care about boxing, this is a mans life that has ended....
anybody who watches ESPN etc.. should know about boxing and im sure they've heard of Diego "Chico" Corrales! The fact that he is a Former World Champ and has anything to do with Boxing at all should get him some sorta recogntion........... Shit im not sure if you guys remember but a month or so back some author dude who wrote about steriods or some shit died and he was 1 of the tops stories WTF! Hey if you did write a letter whered you write it to and how can i do the same!

Yeah I flipped on sportscenter around 9 this morning and...nothing. Normally the Pistons and Red Wings winning would be great shit, but today ESPN dropped the ball.R.I.P. Diego
I actually expected Pardon the Interuption to talk about it but they didn't either and it's no longer on the bottom scores of ESPN news! Very disappointed!
hell ya i watched Mike n Mike First Take Sportscenter and Espn News and they said 1 simple thing about a great guy and dats fucked up........... I just dont get it really how do they cover cory liddell with a special sportscenter and stay on the cardinals pitcher all week but simply say Diego chico Correlas passed away late monday at the age of 29
Its because the people at ESPN probably don't understand what kind of boxer Corrales and more importantly what kind of man he was.

It really pisses me off because the pitcher for the Cardinals that died in a car reck got way more coverage!
yea they been giving mad coverage of the pitcher form the cards.
they should do the same for Diego Corrales.
THe created a wonderful photo tribute to DIEGO on ESPN.com

The last picture is of his crumpled heap of a motorcycle
ESPN would rather talk about Roger Clemens making 28 million for half a season and getting perks no one else has.
