Ok guys no promises on this one but i'll try and do this one aswell although i maybe busy but anyway onto the fight i think Juan Manuel Marquez is the fresher of the two fighters and i think he will have too much for Joel Casamayor who is on his way out IMO............

And even though Joel Casamayor showed grit against Michael Katsidis lets be honest here would a prime Joel Casamayor have been dropped and lost that many rounds against Michael Katsidis ? i still think Joel Casamayor has enough in the tank to give Juan Manuel Marquez a competitive tough 12 rounder but i just don't think he has enough in the tank to win...........

I think Juan Manuel Marquez has been very impressive he maybe exchanging more but he still hasn't showed signs of slowing down and i think he will be the aggressor and he will pound out a close but clear cut UD i like Joel Casamayor but Juan Manuel Marquez is my favorite fighter at the moment so im going with my boy by 12 UD.

Hey, Thats the same albercromby and fitch pic SSSSS had up. I feel cheated......

I see Marquez taking this one also.The weight may be an issue and he will need to press.Is still complete enough to effect aggress without getting careless,make Casa work weathered legs and JMM staying busy.

Marquez does need to be careful of Joel Casamayor's power i don't think Marquez has the best chin in the world and it could be more of a factor since he is moving up in weight and he will be facing bigger and stronger fighters but he does have great recovery powers but yes we will have to wait and see if the weight effects Marquez but if he is comfortable at the weight i think he takes a clear cut UD.

Im in two minds about this 1.

Originally I thought that Marquez' chin wouldnt be able to absorb Casas shots and he isnt skillful enough to compete wth the classier Cuban but now Im thinking if Casa struggled vs that bum that Diaz stopped then he may struggle here aswel .

At the moment I'll go with Casa on points after scoring afew knockdowns but we'll see if anything happens during fight week to change my mind.

cas is a good fighter and the match with katsidis was great cos it showed his heart, but i think marquez will box rings round him, the only thing i can see that might go against marquez is the extra weight but i dont think so.
