It's official. Current WBO interim lightweight champion Joel "El Cepillo" Casamayor will meet former two-division world champion Juan Manuel Marquez on September 13 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
So, what you guys think the outcome will be?
Im totally undecided on this.
wow u go a source...
the lightweight division has got to be the hottest at the moment!
Surprised this has only gotten one response, is a relatively big fight.
JMM wins, not very much doubt in my mind.
Yea I would think Marquez should win, Casamayor is on his way out big time.. But I don't really think the jump to lightweight does Marquez any good. He's not a big featherweight and to my knowledge has never had trouble making the weight. Just that he's been taking quite a bit of punishment lately at 130, combined with the fact that he might not be as effective a counter puncher against bigger guys, I don't really like it. Suppose it's all just to chase a 3rd PAc fight though which I obviously want to see. JMM should be able to beat Casa but he will definetly not be the stronger man, might be harder than I think and who knows how long he can keep going.
