It was Friday morning in Las Vegas, and Diego "Chico" Corrales was out for a run with a buddy. Corrales was trying to find some way to lose five pounds so he could make weight for his scheduled title defense against Joel Casamayor the next day at Mandalay Bay.

He did not, weighing first 139 1/2 Friday afternoon at 4:30, then 139 two hours later. In other words, he was 4 1/2 pounds, then four pounds over the 135-pound weight limit, and he lost his World Boxing Council lightweight belt on the scales.
