Re: Which is the better lightweight fight?
Casa/JMM will be a great matchup for purists, and I'll enjoy watching next week for free, but it has the potential to be a bit overly tactical. I enjoy those kind of matchups, but I enjoy style clashes much more, and Guzman/Campbell should provide that. Plus there is the subplot of "Can the inconsistent and older Campbell turn in another performance like he did against Diaz?" Even if he does, will it be enough? Is Guzman really as good as he looked against Soto?

Re: Which is the better lightweight fight?
A slight edge for Casa/JMM for me; just more interested in this fight. Going to get real interesting in the middle to late rounds.

Stylistically = JMM-Casa **** / Joan-Nate ***
Importance = JMM-Casa ***** / Joan-Nate ****
I think JMM-Casa slightly takes this one by the slightest margin.
I used stars to rate them...

I think Guzman-Campbell is more important. Marquez is going to beat Casa I know that.
Re: Which is the better lightweight fight?
Campbell-Guzman is for 3 belts...
Casa-JMM is only for 1 belt...

The ring championship award that Casa has was a gift. Remember Santa Cruz fight? Not all the time the ring championship award was correct. Campbell's 3 belt was legitimate, he beat the man who beat the other title holders. So i think the Guzman-Campbell is legitimate and more significant. JMM-Casa fight is great but the reward is questionable.

Campbell defeated a highly regarded lightweight in Juan Diaz when he got the 3 belts...
Casamayor been in recent questionable fights including the Santa Cruz robbery... That diminishes the importance of his fight with JMM...

Re: Which is the better lightweight fight?
I have a sweatband that says Juan Manuel Marquez on it.
Still, I voted for Campbell and Guzman. I think the price tilts the scales in their favor.

Re: Which is the better lightweight fight?
One thing I have learned is to never write Casa off. If I was to bet on the fight I probably would go JMM but i'd never write Casa off!
I'm more interested in that fight also. Not that Guzman-Campbell doesn't interest me, just not as much as Casa-JMM.
