Boxing
Fight of the decade: Diego Corrales (Mexico) v Jose Luis Castillo (Mexico) (I)
Choosing one fight is a tough call but the first title unification clash in what should have been a trilogy between two of Mexico's toughest lightweights is up there with the best of them.


Both men stood and slugged non-stop for round after round in the May 7, 2005 fight until Castillo floored Corrales twice in the 10th. On each occasion Corrales spat out his mouthpiece, gaining time to recover. He then pulled himself up and unleashed a perfect right, pummelling Castillo against the ropes with combinations that forced the stoppage.
