Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2017-07-15, disappointing fight between Jezreel Corrales and Robinson Castellanos: it gets two stars.The Wba super-Fw champion Jezreel Corrales entered this fight with a record of 21-1-0 (8 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.3 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Vasyl Lomachenko). He suffered his only defeat when he faced Jhonatan Arenas in 2009, since then he has collected 20 victories and one no-contest beating twice Takashi Uchiyama in 2016 (=Uchiyama vs Corrales I and Corrales vs Uchiyama II).
His opponent, Robinson Castellanos, has a boxing record of 24-12-0 (14 knockouts) and he entered as the No.10 in the same weight class. He lost to Oscar Escandon last year (=Castellanos vs Escandon) but he came back to win in 2017 against Yuriorkis Gamboa (=Gamboa vs Castellanos). Jezreel Corrales vs Robinson Castellanos is valid for the WBA Super World super featherweight title; undercard of Miguel Berchelt vs Takashi Miura. Watch the video and rate this fight!

Official highlights
Corrales is probably the weakest champion in boxing right now.
how is he the weakest champ?
What I meant is that he’s very flawed. I don’t see him winning against Berchelt, Davis, Lomachenko, Sosa, Walters, etc… The only big name he has faced so far is Uchiyama.
