Castillo vs. Corrales I - the Greatest Boxing Comeback Ever?

[Master]

Do you think Corrales cheated by spitting out his gum shield to buy more time?

I wouldn't consider it cheating, just being smart. He needed those extra few seconds to recover. I think that's what added to the epicness of it all.

That is why I do not like it as much as EM v MAB 1.

Ali's comeback against Foreman was one of the best...ropeadope for round after round then bashing Foreman with that amazing combo was one of the best!!!

Ali vs Foreman wasn't really a comeback, he controlled Foreman the entire fight, and then stopped him

Yes it is.. at least the best ive seen in my lifetime, LIVE..

This is the fight that turned my friend into a hardcore boxing junkie... This dude used to shit on boxing all the time but once I got him high, drunk, and let him watch this fight, this foo turned into a boxing lunatic after.. Dude would call me every other day and ask when the next boxing match is haha.

Definitely, spitting out your mouthpiece to buy time is cheating, it's also a sign of resignation in boxing. Weeks took away a point, but he could have DQ'd Chico. That does take away a bit of the luster from Corrales comeback, but he bought himself time to recover, pretty cagy if you ask me, sometimes when your ass is on the line you have to improvise.
