    Man, just the other night I remember watching the fight where he miraculously came back after both boxers were busted up and tired.

    RIP

    He was another great story in boxing. Came up through a bad childhood and made bad decision, but ended up being a good guy...I think he's got a pregnant wife also

    showtime has gotta give it's rights out to espn or something. there are a lot of casual fans who have never heard of Diego or have seen the fights...it's a shame that they promote dlh and mayweatehr the fight of the decade when there are so many better fights like castillio coralles

    Didn't Corralas once beat his pregnant wife so bad that he broke her jaw, collarbone, and ribs?

    OMFG, that's crazy.. so his fight against Clotty was his last?

    He might not be a great guy, but he definitely leaves everything he has in the ring.
