    No. He would need more good wins.

    Well... no. It's not the same caliber as MAB's Hamed or Erik's PacMan win. But if he beats Casamayor, Campbell and Pac for the P4P#1 status and the World LW Championship, I'll rank him ahead of them...

    i dont know maybe, IMO he beat pac twice but since it aint like that on paper im a bit hessitant. i think he needs to beat casa and another good champ, then i'll consider it. but barera and morales are in ma fav fighter list sooo....

    No.
    But a lightweight title is impressive.
    Maybe Erik might want a shot at that?
    (Should JMM win)

    I looked for the 'hell no' option in the poll, but had to settle for just plain no.

    Casa is just as shot now as Morales was against David Diaz, maybe even more.

    Casa is done, over-cooked.

    In his last two outings he lost to santa cruz and had a come from behind knockout against Katsidis.

    I think the Katsidis fight was a great fight and was real close before the KO. But I might have to watch it again

    it was close, and Katsidis was ahead, but Katsidis is not really a world class fighter.

    entertainment-wise he'll never reach them.

    but in terms of pure boxing ability? no, not yet.... or.. maybe. too many pessimists here, i'm going with maybe.

    True, but Casa hasn't looked good in a while. I also think he didn't look good for the Corrales 3 fight. But no matter what I still think it will be a big win for Marquez if he wins. Plus there both not young anymore

    Nope.. Casa is past his prime and he would need some more good wins.. The only person I really see him beating that could boost him on the ATG list would be a win against Pac.. I think JMM is gonna' be one of those talented fighters who was one of the best in his era, but never really achieved much when looked back on..
