    I love this fight. Very underrated, hardly mentioned on ESB, which is shame, because I think its as good as any you'll see this decade. It great because of the way the balance and flow of the fight changes and shifts constantly....

    Another sumptuous Casamayor fight from a few years back is:

    And then if you want to see a superb tactical fight, with two of the most gifted technical fighters of the decade, counter-punching the **** out of each other, watch this:

    I've seen probably 3 times as many fights as I own.

    So take your "um.....no" bull**** elsewhere.

    It was a great fight. Off the top of my head, I'd have it as the 3rd best fight of 2008 behind Marquez-Vazquez 3 and Margarito-Cotto.

    I'd probably agree with that, although all those fights are excellent, and if any is better than the other, it's probably only marginally so. :good

    He is so over-rated, even in his prime
