[Brother Mouzone]

i don't know if chico wants to re-match castillo right away like the wbc wants him to , if you look at it from a buisness stand point the first fight allready raised his stock big time he can make more money fighting morales than castillo even though his fight with castillo was one of the best ever , because morales is the biggest mexican star right now and corrales risk alot less fighting morales , he can fight morales and if he wins which i think he would re-match castillo either fight would be a mega fight but morales makes him more money. i don't blame chico if he chooses not to fight castillo right now, that fight took alot out of him but he showed what a warrior he is in that fight so no one should question his heart for not wanting a immidiate re-match . even if he gets striped of the belt true boxing fans stop carring about belts and the corrupt organizations along time ago. he fought in one of the best fights ever showed tons of heart took alot of punishment and came out victorious.i don't blame him for doing what is in his best intrest even if its not fighting castillo.

First off everyone who is talking about Corrales vs. Morales needs to get that ****ing pipe dream out of their heads...think about it if you were Bob Arum who owns Morales and Castillo and Chico decided too strong arm you and turn down your offer to fight JL again do you think you would turn around and say ok you can fight my cash cow who is much smaller than you...Corrales vs. Morales will never happen and people need to stop talking about it like it is a real possibility cuz it is not.

Secondly how come there are a lot of people who are fine and dandy with the fact that there would be no rematch? People say the first fight was too gruesome...what the **** sport are we watching here? Us cult fans get jipped all of the time and now the greatest fight we have ever seen comes along and we would all be ok if they did not do it again...no way.

Corrales vs. Morales has to be made again, it is an absolute must for the sport...I just can't understand the opposing view that says it is ok for Corrales not to grant Castillo a rematch.

maybe you mis-understood my post i would love a castillo re-match but i was looking at it from chico's prespective as to why he might not want an immidiate re-match. as far as the morales fight being a pipe dream i disagree boxing is a buisness first and a sport second you think arum cares that morales is smaller than chico all he cares about is the money . morales vs. corrales would be huge on ppv and make arum loads of money more than a castillo re-match . the bottom line for the fight to happen is money as soon as there is enough money on the table arum will make the fight .

Your telling me that there is a considerable amount more money for Morales v. Corrales then a PAc v. Morales rematch or a MAB v. Morales 4...I bet your right that Corrales brings in a bit more dough...maybe but trust me with Bob Arum it is not all about the money.

If Corrales hangs Arum out too dry by not granting a rematch for his boy Castillo, a rematch by the way that Arum seems dead set on then there is no way he will pin El Terribly in with a fighter who will probably take his head off(plus there is no way Erik could hurt Corrales and ARum knows this), trust me this mythical matchup is just that a myth. Who is the promoter here? Is it Chico or Arum...I will bet every sent I have that it is Arum.

Like the first time I picked Castillo ko 10...

It should have been that way the first time.

And like I picked the first time...Corrales TKO Castillo in 10

I love all this talk about Corrales not being the same after the fight with Castillo. First off for all the talk of fighters not being the same it is rarely the case. After Barrera was smoked by Pacquiao he was not supposed to be the same- but he then turns around and beat Morales. Morales was "not supposed to be the same" after his fight with Barrera, but then he beat Barrera (in principle) in the rematch. He also was not supposed to be the same fighter after he lost to Barrera the second time. But he then went and beat Pacquiao. Speaking of Pacquiao... He was not supposed to be the same fighter after the war with Marquez- but he turns around and has a hell of a fight with Morales. And another thing, Chico has always had a reputation for being able to get up from alot of punishment- and he took a beating when he fought Floyd Mayweather Jr. Another thing that is being forgotten is that Castillo was in the same fight as Corrales, only on the losing end. He was KO'ed for the first time in his career as a matter of fact. Also, don't forget that Castillo is the older fighter of the two of them (by quite a bit) if either of them is more likely to have lasting damage from that fight then it is Castillo. I do think a rematch will happen, and if it does I am also pretty sure that it will be Corrales who has his hands raised in victory. Either that or he is a shot fighter I guess...

You must have missed the post conference when Castillo walked out and said he was ready to fight the rematch that same day. Corrales couldnt walk on his own and had to sit down to talk.
You tell me who the hurt fighter is.
Some people missed that during the fight Corrales wanted to quit since the 8th round, the first he spit his piece and no it wasnt a punch. The only reason Diego won was cause Castillo thaught he had in the fight in the bag already and just ****ed up. He wont be ****ing up this time though.
I must say that this next fight is still a 50/50 possibility.They are so evenly matched its not even funny.
As a big Castillo fan all I ask for is a fair rematch.
Corrales did what he did and won the first fight,FINE I want to see him try to pull some bull**** like that again.
This time the ref isnt gonna baby his ass everytime he decides to take his piece out.

First off, I am not saying that Diego wasnt hurt-- he obviously was. But it is not about who was hurt at the time as they both were, but Diego is healing well as is Castillo. I also only saw one person defensless against the ropes in that fight and that was Castillo. The only reason Castillo got knocked out was because he thought he had the fight in the bag? Yeah, I can recall lots of successful fighters not finishing their opponents after they have hit the canvas twice. And secondly, the referee did not baby anybody, he took a point (as the rules say) and blew any chance for a decision that existed. You know what happens the next time if a fighter spits the mouth guard out they are going to take a point, just like they did with Corrales. Nobody is stopping a title fight because a mouth guard was spit out. Finally, I also think it is a really even match-up and have said so over and over again, and I think there is going to be a rematch. But in all honosty I dont care what all the Castillo fans think of who the better fighter is. The record book will always say that on May 7'th Diego Corrales knocked out Joes Luis Castillo in the 10'th round, and that is good enough for me.
