    135, obviously. I'd still love to see this. Both hung tough and pocketed rounds with a primed-out Marquez before getting stopped. Casamayor is now officially inactive for over a year, and Diaz' trip up to light welter wasn't a smashing success with a very controversial decision in a razor-thin fight with Malignaggi. They may be each other's best option for a big fight right now, and I remember this was rumored to be in the works a few years back.

    Common opposition:

    Juan Manuel Marquez
    Diaz lost by TKO9
    Casamayor lost by TKO11

    Michael Katsidis

    Diaz won by SD
    Casamayor won by TKO10

    Nate Campbell

    Diaz lost by SD
    Casamayor won by UD

    Acelino Freitas

    Diaz won by RTD 8
    Casamayor lost by UD

    Dead heat in that department.

    Pick'em.

    Normally I'd favor Casa but with the layoff and age and deterioration Juan could win.

    I'd still pick Casa if it was signed right now for the end of the year/early 2010. Any later than that, and...well...the guy will just be so old...

    Right now??? Ah...no question. Diaz over this version of Casa for sure. ****.....Diaz gave JMM a tough fight....one of the most difficult he's had. Grant it...I think JMM is on the slide as well but Casa is further past his best than JMM. Diaz is too fresh, young and determined to loose to a fighter like Casa in his present state.

    "This version"? The last Casa we saw in the ring gave JMM just as much trouble as did Diaz, if not more.

    Diaz a slight edge, but Diaz did lose to Malignaggi.

    Same here.

    By the way, where is Casamayor? He was supposed to fight Julio Diaz but got injured, and last I heard he tryed to get a fight with Valero but talks stoped.

    ^This

    Tho at the same time, Juan's style might have even gave a prime Casa trouble at his peak.
    (Just never truly know).

    I was looking foward to seeing Casa Vs. Valero, I guess that's prob out now?
    Anyone know what next for Casa?

    Hopefully the powers that be find this thread on an idle google search and take away from it that this fight might make dollars and sense. Everybody keep hyping it! :bump :bump :bbb :happy
