2. spoiler.....

Corrales got knocked down twice in the 10th, then came back and TKO'd Castillo in the same round.

It looked like Corrales was done....out...he was deducted a point for spitting out his mouth piece on the second knockdown.

He came back and rocked Castillo (they were both landing hard shots). Castillo ended up being knocked out on his feet, being out and hung on the ropes. The referee stopped it.

The 8th round was almost Hagler/Hearns good, too.

3. Hey this is replaying now...if you didn't watch it and you like boxing

you should tune in.

The first fight's a little boring, but the second fight is incredible....every single round is really close and a slugfest.

The 8th and 10th rounds are almost historic.

4. We watched that fight last night, TroubleMan...
What a warrior that Corrales is -- well, both of them actually -- but that was the most amazing fight I've ever seen. I hate myself for getting caught up in the brutality (I am a woman, after all, and shouldn't enjoy such things), but it really was pretty phenomenal. I was hoping Corrales would win -- he seems to be such a gentleman, and I liked that he was so respectful at the end, not just gloating over his victory. It was truly one for the books.
