at least he gave a great great performance before he left. His career was on the down side and he had nothing left to prove. chico was just a crazy mofo. RIP he will always be respected no ?? asked!!!Comment

The last fight he won was the 1st Castillo fight. You couldn't ask for a better last win or in a more dramatic fashion than that. Oddly enough he died on the 2 year anniversary of that fight. It's weirdly coincidental and sad at the same time.Comment

Haha, don't put Cory on par with Ice, he's a boring fighter that makes for boring fights, but he's a good dude. An ******* like Mundine is meant for that.For some reason reading this reminded me of what Chris Rock said about rappers. About all the good rappers dying young, and the bad ones sticking around forever.
"Biggie? Dead. Tupac? Dead. Vanilla Ice? Still alive."
The same can be said about boxers who go before their time.
"Monzon? Dead. Corrales? Dead. Cory Spinks? Still alive."
Is Diego a Hall Of Famer?
R.I.P. Chico you will be remembered fondly 1Comment

Even my buddies that were not avid boxing fans were stunned at hearing about Chico's death. They only knew of him because of that classic battle with Jose Luis Castillo. Anyone who watched that FIGHT will never forget Chico Corrales.
He put on so many ballsy performances.
I still say he KOs mayweather, had they not stopped that fight.
Chico was ALWAYS in the fight, he had that great equalizer. True Warrrior.
I wish he was still here today. R.I.P. Chico. We'll all be there one day.Comment

He was probably reminiscing about that great fight on the night of his tragedy.Comment

As of right now, Corrales is not in the International Boxing Hall of Fame to my knowledge. Typically it takes quite a few years after a fighter's death or retirement for them to get the nod.
Corrales/Castillo 1 is the greatest fight ever. I've seen many fights that were amazingly action packed and exciting but none of them had as dramatic an ending as that. That was a lightning rod of a fight.Even my buddies that were not avid boxing fans were stunned at hearing about Chico's death.
