Fightnews caught up with former WBC lightweight champion Jose Luis Castillo Saturday and asked him about his upcoming rubber match with current WBC champion Diego Corrales on February 4th. Castillo is very confident about winning the fight and confirmed that the fight will be held in the lightweight division (135 lbs). He has been very vocal about his disgust at how Corrales’ handlers treated him when he came in two pounds over the weight limit due to a rib injury during training for their second fight. He assured that nothing will change. His goal is to come in with the same game plan and go straight at Corrales and "do all that is necessary to win."
