wo time world champion Jose Luis Castillo of Mexico was very saddened today after learning that Diego Corrales had passed away in a motorcyle accident.

"I was very surprised and upset when I heard about Chico. It really is tragic when something like this happens. My heart goes out to his family who I know he cared a lot about. I always liked Chico. We had what I would call as a friendly rivalry when we got into the ring.

"We had two amazing fights and our names will be linked forever. For me it was a privilege of knowing Chico and being part of such great fights"
