CASTILLO'S PURSE WITHHELD!!! **Update: JLC WILL be paid** (6/22/07)

[Pugilistic]

thats sucks for castillo but he brought this on himself . shame

[Chicali]

why bring this up right before the fight, couldnt this have been announced until after the fight. I wonder if the pregnant wife can have a say in all this, maybe saying that Castillo should just keep his purse since Corrales is dead.

[katfight]

this can onli have a negative effect on Castillo !!
if your mind is on other things u aint focused
he did wrong so he's paying the price
but seems a bit unfair be unfair to take it all in one go
as for the weight issue wen u a boxer u no u gotta make the weight b4 u fight

BUT, the guy that sued him is now dead..............
IMO I think this will motivate Castillo more, as his only option going forward is
to get more big name fights, and hence more money, he has got to be the lowest
paid fighter of his caliber.

[katfight]

it's a fifth of his purse that is being taken and held aside until the outcome of the lawsuit

Corrales is dead but his family arent.........
I understand that Castillo had a huge fine and lost his licence for 6months losing him even more money.the preperation for the fight cost both fighters money and neither got the purse for the cancelled fight but it wasnt Correles fault that Castillo didnt make the weight.

i hope it does motivate him he's a gr8 boxer

and i wanna see a good fight
but IMO with this coming out so close to the fight its gonna have bad mental effects

[donnydarkoIRL]

How in the world is he going to be motivated to get into the ring with a guy fully content to knock him out knowing that at the end of the night he will be receiving less than any of hattons sparring partners?

[katfight]

spot on hitmandonny
u a boxer so wud it motivate u that
could u give your 100 percent and focus on the fight

[donnydarkoIRL]

Hell no!
Even at this point if he has to lose weight how could he do it?

[Sugar_Shaw]

Check fightnews now, it says he will be paid

[katfight]

even so if he's being told now that he will be paid the last few days IMO will have had an effect

Although a Nevada Federal Judge granted an attachment in favor of Gary Shaw Productions and Diego Corrales’s Estate of up to $1,200,000 of any monies to be paid to Jose Luis Castillo, also required was that a bond of equal monies be collected from Gary Shaw Productions and Diego Corrales’s Estate. The bond was not received and as a result Castillo will be paid.
