http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diego_Corrales thats the only link i could find. thats some sad shit... RIP Chico.
Personally I couldn't stand Corrales as a person nor as a fighter but this is sad news anyway. Hopefully his family is well
I always try to separate the man from the fighter. I hated Corrales the man - more than I could ever hate Mayweather the man - but he was a good fighter.
http://boxingtalk.com/pag/article12159.html Unbelievable. The first Castillo-Corrales fight is one of the greatest bouts of all-time, he'll be remembered.
Well said. That could be his eulogy in regards to the sport. As simple as that. And nobody could feel wronged. He was an asset to the sport, the likes of which come along all too rarely. Corrales the person might never have reached the same heights as the boxer; but this is a boxing site and for that reason alone we should focus on what he brought all of us. Memories. Lots of them. He'll never be forgotten.
Wow, this is truly shocking. Sad day for the sport. He was a warrior and he worked hard to overcome his personal demons. What a loss for the sport.
WTF? I'm completely STUNNED! Words can't describe how SAD I feel right now. His career was pretty much over but his LIFE?? I'm absolutely sickened right now...
But this is not a thread about domestic abuse, you're just trying to troll, and this time it's not even close to funny. :nono: Have you never done anything in your life that you regretted?
Nothing in the same ballpark as beating up a pregnant woman and throwing her down a flight of stairs. I liked Corrales as a fighter, but now that he's done, it's good to get rid of him.
keep this civil everyone or this will get shut down. I'm anxious to hear details and until i know what happened I'd reserve judgement. But so soon after I think we should either express condolences or reflet on this type of thing in our own life.
