    He deserves whatever punishment is given to him for not making weight. I think alot of pro JLC fans are being hard on him unnecessarily. It's not like he's failed to make weight 3 TIMES IN A ROW like JLC. He's a warrior & has always been professional. This is only the first time he's done this so let's just see what happens after this & give the man a break because it's obvious that he killed himself just to get down to where he's at.

      Castillo has only failed to make the 135 limit. He made the catchweight limit of 137 against Reyes.

      Corrales is a warrior but he catching alot of heat because of the comments that he made about Castillo for failing to make weight. It was just as obvious that Castillo tried to make the weight as well.

        Hmm, I wonder if he'll be able to weigh in under 147 tomorrow at noon. Not only that, if he hasn't eaten since Monday, I don't think he'll be able to go 12 rounds. If that's the case, he better KO Casa early or he'll get KO'd late.

            Apoligies to castillo for what? castillo did it 3 times pal, 1 in the second corrales fight, 2 the diaz fight and 3 the corrales 3rd fight. Atleast corrales made a statement and apoligies where wasa castillo apoligies after the weigh in? none.

              The contract wasn't the catch weight i don't think. Arum talk to diaz promoter and bascally tell them to make this fight a catch weight but it wasn't in the contract so bascally castillo did it 3 times. Castillo 3 times and corrales 1. I bet ya corrales won't fight again at 135 pounds. He ain't going to be ****** and fight another 135 pound fight. He knows it's time to fight at 140 pounds.

                And also atleast corrales ppl didn't cheat by pulling up the scales for corrales unlike castillo ppl who did that. Corrales went up to cas and apoligies to him personally that's something castillo never did that twice.

                  although any fighter that doesn't make weight should face consequences, you still have to admit that Corrales is facing it much better than Castillo did in a way..

                  Also, this might help push the precident harder to try to come up with a solution to boxers having to starve to death to make weight..

                  The thing i hate most about the situation is it's during the "free weekend" promo for Showtime and all non-boxing fans get a perfect excuse to say, "See, this is why i don't watch boxing."

                    Obviously Chico is too big for that weight class. He's too scared to fight the big boys too so he does not want to move up in weight either.

                    Another fighter I hate on picking on smaller boxers.
