    Two of my favorites fighters.
    Casamayor was a sliky lefty,quick with an iron chin,elusive and with decent power.Could have been a difficult fight for Pac.( i mean,the Pac who fought at 135 vs Diaz).
    But overall Pac was even faster and stronger than Casa, i think Pac wins by decision.

    Casa wasn't prime at 135, at either 130 or 135 he runs Pac ultra close, maybe edges a Ud/SD

    We will never know as he skipped the entire division. Only ever fought once at LW, once at LWW and never actually fought at LMW.... greatest of all time?? pmsl :lol:

    Pacquiao prior to 130lbs was vulnerable. From 135lbs to 140lbs it's tough to pick against him even in a historical sense. I'd take him to beat Casamayor at 135lbs on points.

    we'll never know... Pac ignored Casa at 135, which is why Marquez vs Casa was a thing of beauty

    i think it would have been a classic, pac is clearly the better fighter but i would bet for casa for this one. i think he would be able to box with pac and win draw or lose a really close fight

    Actually it could had been a classic, the slick boxer against the power puncher. But back in those days (when casamayor was at his peak) Pacquio was not the boxer that he is today, another one that I would had pay to c, Corrales vs. pacquio 135lbs, and I think casamayor was a better fighter at 130lbs.

    After Casa has seen better days, he gave it all but he was done by the time he fought Marquez.
