    Juan Manuel Marquez - Definitely, I would bet my house on this one. I hope the judges are not the same ones from the Santa Cruz fight though !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'll go with Casa, even though I hate him and want Marquez to win

    I counted Casa out against Katsidas after he was thoroughly owned by Santa Cruz....I was wrong....the dirty old ******* appears to have plenty left in the tank

    I have a sneaking feeling Casamayor can pull it off, no real logic to it.

    i can't discount a possible casa win here... after all, this is actually jmm's first fight @135 after just 3 fights @130. in his only 3 fights @130, he didn't show the same speed, power and reflexes he once had @126. moving up in weight from his natural 126 has already had an adverse affect on him and it will probably just get worse with his jump again to 135.

    it would've been better if jmm could've stayed @130 for a while and took on another 2-3 more fights before moving up. but we all know that he's chasing pac for a 3rd fight. that may eventually bite him and casa could be the one to do it being a large, smart, crafty and sometimes even dirty 135-lber. we have to remember that pac fought a total of 8 times @130 before moving up to 135.

    imo, jmm just stayed too long @126. he should've moved up sooner when pac, mab and em did. but that's water under the bridge now. hopefully, he can win in his first fight @135 against a top-caliber guy like casa after such a short and generally unremarkable stint @130. he has to win this fight to set up that possible 3rd fight w/ pac but i do have my doubts...

    When JMM decides to be the agressor he can be very effective, has anyone seen the jandanaeg fight where he throws around 20 wild punches

    prob is that he gets hit more than he used to especially when he is the aggressor. sure, he won very convincingly in that fight as he should against an opponent levels below him. but just look at his face after that fight...
