Fighters get to retire three times before it counts.

His KO streak to start a career was unreal, 29 straight.

1. Eder Jofre and 2. Acelino Freitas are the best Brazilian fighters of all times

# Joel Cassamayor (arguably 2-0 against Corrales; I'm picking him to win their upcoming match)

woa woa woa.....corrales defintley won the cassamor 2nd fight.



lastly......cassamayor has badly declined since 2003-04 when he fought corrales while corrales is at his peak. corrales is going to kill cassamor easily.

And that was long before his comeback win over Raheem. I have a good feeling about Freitas, post-boxing. I think he's going to do fine. I hope he becomes even more successful as a promoter.

He's been getting some criticism in Brazil for retiring, but I'm with you. If he can use his fame to raise the profile of the sport in Brazil - well that's a potential gold mine of future boxing talent. Maybe he can make some inroads against Vale Tudo, and go the opposite of the MMA trend here.

He's won about five rounds COMBINED in those fights

yea ive seen corrales last 3 fights! ive seen him in his last 3 fights take apart two very good lightweights in jose luis castillo and acelino fretias.


i had corrales ahead in the castillo and fretias fights, so i dont know what ur talkinbg about when you say 5 rounds combined.


so while corrales was knocking out the best lightweights of our era, in his last 3 fights cassamoyr was fighting to a draw with B level fighters, and getting knocked down and looking much slower and more aged in winning preformances over 2nd rate competition.



cassamayor is nowhere near the 03-04 cassamayor that corrales fought

He's nowhere near the machine that took apart Gainer, Juuko and Manfreddy.

ur right, hes now a BETTER machine who took out the likes of very good fighters like cassamayor II, freitas, and castillo.



corrales is a better lightweight than super featherweight
