*BREAKING NEWS* Diego 'Chico' Corrales R.I.P. **********

[Mr. Cosell]

Man, I got home yesterday after a long day at the office and I thought it couldn't possibly get any worse, then I read the news. Still stunned about this, what a huge loss for the profession and its fans. Chico was a model of what a true fighter should be, a never say die warrior who would give every last bit of himself in the ring. RIP Chico, you will certainly be missed for a long time to come.

[The Boxer]

RIP to one of the toughest and hardest puching fighters of are time. he gave us great fights and he will be missed.

Yeah, it was good, Bert Sugar is the man when it comes to boxing knowledge.
That 10th round is the definition of heart.

[JT Rock]

Still hard to believe Diego is gone... He deserved to walk away and retire with his good health intact.. He was only 29 for God Sakes.


On a side note, when you looked at Diego you might think he was some street thug, since he was covered in tattoo's and wore Camoflauge... But he was a very soft spoken, family oriented class act

[El Gamo]

"Boxing has lost a great warrior and a gifted athlete. Diego Corrales had the heart of a champion, and while we were competitors in the ring, he was someone who I greatly respected and will be remembered for his spirit and passion in and out of the ring. The boxing community lost a great champion this week and he will be truly missed. My condolences go out to his wife Michelle, his five children and the rest of his family and friends."

Shrug off the restraints
That you have allowed others
To place opon you.
You are limitless.
There is nothing you cannot
Achieve.
There is no sadness inlife
That cannot be reversed.
There is no sickness
That cannot be cured.
Each second
You can be reborn.
Each second
There can be a new begining.
It is choice.
It is your Choice

Avove all,
Be patient with yourself.
Gaze back apon the path
That brought you to this place
And this time.
Gaze then into the night sky.
See the stars in all their glory.
Marvel at them as they are part
Of the universe,
Placed there by the Great Spirit.
Then my children,
Gaze upon your self,
At the wonderous creation
That you are.
You are part of this universe.
Without You the universe
Is not complete.

From the ancient words OF 'Clearwater'.
Through Daniel Littlewood..
