Diego Corrales at 140

[STEELHEAD]

... He likes to fight inside because he has unusually short arms for his height. I would take Hatton over him anyday, and PBF would do the same thing to him this time. I think he would take Coto though because he has skills and can punch, and if he moves up, the fighters will get taller and thus have less and less of a disadvantage and more chance to nail him.

just want to point out that hatton is 5'6" and has a really short 67" reach next to corrales 5'10" and 70" reach.

If Corrales fights Castillo again like he says he will, it wiil be interesting to see what he will still have left in the tank. Personally I see Chico as the underdog going into the second Castillo fight and if he can get passed him again i'm sure it will be an extremely hard faught battle. At 140 I would again think of Corrales as the underdog against Mayweather and Hatton and probably even Cotto but with his one punch power you can never could him out of any fight and I would be rooting for him all the way.

Who hits harder, in your opinion ?
Who drops, hurts, & KO's world-class opposition the way he does ?

Let me put it this way, how many one-punch Ko's does he have?
Yes overall, he is a devastating puncher, but there are too many
that accomplish the same feat as he does to say that hands down he is the most devastating puncher in boxing. I mean, he never dropped Manfredy with one shot and kept him down, and the Gainer fight was a bad stoppage. Freitas just quit, he could have continued.

Oh yeah, I wasn't saying he had T Rex arms or anything, just saying his arms aren't exactly what you'd expect from a 6' fighter, that's all.

It's hard to score one-punch KO's over world-class opposition.
Put him with a string of mediocrities & I'll guarantee he takes many of them out with one shot.

Again....tell me who hurts, drops, or KO's world class opposition the way he does ?

Just for the record, does anyone know exactly how tall this ****er is? I've heard he's 6' boxrec says 5'11, and Steelhead says 5'10. Just asking.

you should include "what does castillo have left in the tank".

castillo has been thru more wars and corrales knocked him out on his feet. can't wait for this one.

Just off the top of my head, Tito IMO is easily just as devastating a puncher as Chico is, if not more.

[borikua]

He has a better chance of beatin Morales and Barrera at 135 than going up against Hatton, Cotto, or Floyd.

Not as a middleweight. Anyway Tito is retired, so you really can't count him.
