Corrales camp appeals WBC ruling
The WBC has ordered an immediate rematch between lightweight champion Diego Corrales and former champ Jose Luis Castillo. Castillo protested Corrales' tenth round TKO win to the Mexico City-based sanctioning body, arguing that Corrales was given extra time to recover after being knocked down twice earlier in round ten of their classic confrontation on May 7. The Corrales camp has appealed the WBC's direct rematch order and the matter will now go to the WBC appeals committee. Corrales holds both the WBC and WBO lightweight crowns.
