    If a two brawler fighter the more powerful brawler would win. if I bring Castillo at 140 fighting Castillo at 135 the 140 would win. because the style of the gives Castillo an advantge.

    But for Corrales not making the weight against a guy who moves around will make more problems for him because he cant catch up with him.

    Yes its Corrales fault for fighting inside and you gotta give credit for doing that before for 10 rounds.

    But one last thing its not always the fighter who chooses there fight. What if Corrales said no to Casamayor. when Casamayor first called out Corrales he refused to fight and most people said that Corrales is a puss and when he choose to fight and couldnt make the wieght it the same story.

    In Castillo sitaution if he said no i am not fighting Corrales at this weight boxing fans would regard Castillo ducking Corrales and vise versa.
    We'll see after the fight, and to be honest I wasn't even looking forward to this fight like everybody else intill this happened.

      Exactly, I didn't really care about this fight either but the Corrales inccident has made this fight very interesting. And i can't wait to hear the Showtime crew bash Corrales as they supposedly did to Castillo.

        This has already been said, but it bears repeating.

        Castillo came in 3 fhts in a row over the contracted weight limit. In each instance he was unapologetic and acted pissed because Corrales didn't let him fight heavy for their third fight.
        Through the whole process he blamed everyone but himself, and still tried to defend it to the NSAC.

        On the other hand, this is Chico's first time coming coming in over the weight limit. Doe that make it excusable? No, but he is handling like a professional, rather than looking for excuses and places to lay the blame. He admits his own fault in this and is not complaining about the purse share, nor the fine bound to be levied on him.

        As for the lawsuit, he won't and shouldn't drop it, and it's not "ironic" in the east if he doesn't. You can't compare the 2 situations. If you want to compare, then compare the second fight, for which there was no lawsuit. It ore closely resembles the first situation, especially because the only person losing money is the fighter who broke the rules. Coralles didn't cost people 2 Million dollars in production costs, nor over a million dollar purse.

          Most probably Corrales is do-or-die sitaution if he won he wouldnt embarress himself and contuine to regain his reputation once again even after the Mayweather fight but that would be hard because he is shot already.

          and if he loss probably Casamayor will go after Freitas or Castillo. He wants to retire at least beating the guys who he thought he won and get a W. because both of his fight where SD loss and he wants to prove something before he retires

            bla bla

            you make some legit points here and there but the bottomline here is that corrales, team corrales, corrales' fans talked A HUGE LOT of ****, even after the 2nd fight, not just after the fiasco of the THIRD.

            After talking that huge lot of **** now they all have to shut the **** up or embarass themselves more.

              who called off the third fight?
              Why doesnt Casamayor have a problem with it?
              Doesnt missing the weight limit so many times tell you something?
