The K man would have learned from his mistake against Casamayor and i pick him to win against Diaz. Great fights!
Are these signed ?? Awesome fights all around,But I still think Santa-Cruz deserves another huge fight after Casa was rewarded early Christmas.I think Diaz will have an uphill battle with his iffy power and Lack of diverse gears.Prior to Kats loss and Diaz loss.......this was on paper a furious styles match up,guaranteed pace and mass output.It could still be a nice one but I think Kats can get through on Diaz with body assault.Diaz has not shown great ability to fight backing up and lacks the power to detour Kats......Interesting to see Kats back in the ring 1st,sometimes when a guy is flattened like he was Vs. Casamayor Its akin to a door that will not close again??
I Like Campbell alot but he Is hot & cold,I can envision him Beating Guzman but he will have to come forward strong and Guzman might just pot-shot him ugly then slide away......rinse repeat etc.
I would take Casamayor and Diaz if those fights come off
Awesome fights. JMM v Cs:both are past their peak but would be =awesome.KATS V Diaz=war! And Guzman v Nate=beautiful clash of styles.
Likelihood of these fights actually being made? I'm sceptical to say the least!
Guzman just needs a chance. Campbell's a good fighter but he doesn't match up well in that to me.
Diaz-Katsidis would be good but that's a tough spot, two young, exciting guys, wouldn't help to have two losses in a row.

Guns of August--Campbell Vs. GuzmanJoel Casamayor Lets Deadline Pass, Looks To Juan Manuel Marquez For Oct. 11!

http://www.boxingconfidential.com/ne...iao_731658.jpgYou can call this one a reconfirmation of a reconfirmation of a Boxingconfidential.com scoop.
Insiders in the Joel Casamayor camp said Monday night that the slick Cubano southpaw did not return a signed contract to the WBO or to Don King. The reason being, of course as we’ve kept reporting, is Casamayor is letting his WBO interim lightweight title status go bye-bye. Casamayor will stay “in house” with Golden Boy to fight Mexican ringmaster Juan Manuel Marquez. Likely date continues to be Oct. 11. Read more...

Poor poor Nate Campbell. I just can't see him winning this one.
No doubt,The last thing he should be looking at is Pac fight and should be steely eyed and focused On Guzman...If not He might be looking up at the lights off his back.Quote:

Casa vs JMM: This is a tough one for me to figure out. I think I would favor Casamayor. His dirty fighting might bother JMM. Not to mention, JMM would be moving up and Casa surprised me with how many times he knocked down Kats and not to mention how he ended it. 135 + Casa may be too much for JMM.
Campbell vs Guzman: Like people have been saying, depends on which Campbell shows up. Guzman would box circles around him if he doesn't bring his A-game. But even if Campbell is fighting well, he would have to chase Guzman around the ring.
Kats vs J. Diaz: I don't see Diaz winning this fight. Both are young exciting fighters. Both coming off losses but Katsidis impressed me more. When faced with adversity, Diaz folded and took an old-school beating. When Katsidis had his back against the wall fighting Casa, he fought aggressively and fought his way to the lead in the scorecards AND knocked Casa out of the ring. With the way both men fight, it would be a war, I can see Diaz winning early on, but Kats won't go away and then the tide will turn. Kats with a late stoppage.
I could've swore that due to promotional purposes, Casamayor was set to fight Juan Diaz?!?! Did that fall through?
