Former Spanish champ Domingo Barreras Corpas has passed away at the age of 81.
Corpas, who ended his career with a record of 40-10 (20 KOs), fought professionally from 1967 through 1979.
He challenged Bruno Arccart for a junior welterweight title in 1973 but was knocked out by a coin thrown into the ring from the crowd – or so it was claimed. Either way, Corpas was counted out.
