OMG. I heard the news on my way home from work. What a devastating loss for boxing. I was always a Corrales fan, and am deeply saddened..... not just at the passing away of Corrales, the fighter, but Corrales, the human being as well. Whatever issues he may have had outside of the ring, my impression of Corrales was always that of a very likeable guy, with a smile for everyone. He never disrespected or dissed any other fighter, and always spoke with respect. And as a fighter...... where do I begin. The man was a true warrior. His first fight against Castillo is up there with my favorite fights of all time.
Rest in peace, Diego.
