Thread: Light Weight Div. Panorama............

Well i have to say that now Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao the LW World Champion of WBC is now the best P4P at this moment by virtues of his great presentation that he had when KOed Diaz last Saturday.........

Although , the LW Div. Panorama will change completely in September , when 6 of main fighters of this weight will face each other in 2 fallowed Saturday................
From Texas the Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz will face with the Australian Michael Katsidis in September 6 08 , while in September 13 08 will face from US Nate Campbell Champion of WBA , IBF and WBO , he will defend his 3 Belts with the Dominican Joan Guzman and the Cuban Joel Casamayor Interim Champion of WBO will face with the Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez in a separate cartel.....................

So this mean that we will enjoy this September with all this great fights................

Should be a great month INDEED!

Theres no doubt that Pacquiao will want face with Hatton in a future......................

I'm sure he would too! The money is going to be huge and def wouldn't want to miss out on it.

I hope he doesn't fight at 140 then moves down to 135 to fight someone there. He should stay at 135 for a bit then move up on one of his last fights.

I like when div. clear up like this, it makes it easier to see who the real champ is.
In this case it's Casa but judging him by his last performances where he hasn't shown those great skills that once decorated him as one of the best in the world it gives everyone lots to talk about and if he really is the best LW today.

Welterweights better watch out - 135 is shaping up to be a pretty exciting division!

It's great we're possibly seeing more of this clearing up in other divisions as well, with matches like Cotto/Margarito and a potential Pavlik/Abraham fight.

It would be great for the sport if this developed into a trend. Can you even imagine unified champions in more than one weight class?

When a fighter has relied on slickness and speed the entire career, and then they get slower and older and have to get stuck in more like Casamayor did. You see what a fighter is really made of and Casamayor will certainly be a hard man to beat. But i wouldn't call him the best Lightweight at this point in time i think Marquez will beat him by close decision, and i think Guzman could beat him as well.

Agreed on your points on Casa.
Which is why it's great that he's active after spending all the time just standing there not doing much.
