Hmmm,strange choice of comparison bro! For me ,Casamyor alllllllll the way! There is a reason PBF did not fight him Seriously,Joel is super skilled,southpaw,slick,crafty can just upset the odds. Close fights and wins with Castillo,Corrales and Freitas(he could have got the decision in all of those fights) shows how good he is.

Corley,with no disrespect meant to him or any of his fans,is more of a journeyman/guard at 140. He's not particularly brilliant in any 1 area,he can be awkward but he has had chances against Witter,Cotto,Judah and PBF and just did not show me enough desire. The best thing I can think of to talk about with Corley is that he shook PBF twice? and had Cotto out?? That's it.

So,in conclusion,I think for me personally,Casamayor is the better fighter in nearly every aspect beginning with skills to accomplishments to who I think would win in a fight(P4P sense). Hope this helps

LOL, this is kinda why i wanted your opinions on him (damn, my secret is out! ).

I was just looking through boxrec and noticed Floyd fought Corley staright after Juda beat him.
I also noticed that (okay fair enough Freitas arrived at 135 a bit late) but Cassamayor and Freitas surely would lof been better fights at 135 than say Brussles and Corely at 140?

Point being:-
a) i stil dont feel that his stay at 140 was exactly worth anything and
b) the reason i think this is he could of made far more (i hate this phrase) "career defining" fights at 135.

Also i noticed (forgot) that Cotto (although being rocked) Knocked Corley TFO! Which made me like him even more (plus i now like his chances against Juda even more... Maybe not Floyd though )

Anyways.... all round peeps, you've been a great help
