    I see not a lot of people have chimmed in with an opinion on this one yet but I am surprised no one is giving CHico a chance. I like KT myself but I will admit that Diego could easily KO the champ if given the opportuniy. If you look at Diego's loses, both the guys had good lateral movement and were way faster than he is. Even in the Freitas fight, Acelino was killing him until he got tired and was trapped on the ropes. KT does not move laterally like PBF or Joel. He is more of a stalker and counter puncher which could lead to his demise against a power puncher like Diego. The way Goosen has Diego tucking his chin and throwing the jab would make this a great fight to see. KT would have to respect his power unlike the way he did against Sharmba and just walked through all his shots. All that being said, I still like KT due to the fact that I know Diego can and has been KOed before. KT has too, but not the way PBF did Diego and that was a long time ago as well.

    Oh. For the person who said Diego would beat PBF easily. I guess they are on crack or something cause PBF has only gotten better and he still has the movement and defense that would give Chico trouble. Diego has gotten better admittedly but he aint great like Floyd and PBF is still the best boxer in the game right now by far. Just look how he was plastered by Acelino who is not nearly as fast as PBF. That right their should tell you what Floyd would do to him. Again!

      I'll go w/Tszuy By TKO in 5th. I say he puts China chinned Chico 4 times in route.

          Tszyu by devastating KO. Tszyu is naturally used to fighting at higher weights than Corrales is and Tszyu has that amazing handspeed. He would rip through Corrales in no time at all. I hope this is rumour because there are far more worth while fights i would rather see than this blatant slaughtering.

            I think that Tszyu might be too much for Corrales. Especially with Chico's go out on his shield attitude. It might be exciting while it lasted but I would fear for his longterm well being from the punishment that he would suffer from Kostya.

              I agree with everyone else on this one, KT wins this one by KO.

                KT vs Margarito =fight of the year or even decade
                Not if it's the same decade as Gatti-Ward I. Still, Tzyu-Margarito is a great one, you're right. Tzyu-Spinks would be less exciting by far, but I wouldn't mind seeing that either.

                  you gotta remember that tszyu has one good chin on him, I don't see how CHico can easily knock him out. He could use that height of his, but his chin will be exposed to those straight rights from Tszyu, since he'll really ahve to tuck it to hide it. Plus Tszyu will WORK that body.

                    exactly. I just rewatched some of the Freitas fight (Corrales vs. Freitas) and the way he's throwing punches leaves himself wide open, although he knew he was getting away with them against Freitas. I see a pretty brutal knockout here at the hands of Kostya.

                      I respect both and favor KT


                      but this is an all risk but little reward fight,


                      Diego was stopped by two smaller guys in Casamayor (cut or no cut and towel or no towel)


                      KT doesn't need this fight

                      he doesnt need it, true. but it would be a relatively easy win over a high quality opponent
