I just read a little about this possibility on rabbitpunch boxing and it seems like it makes some sense for both guys. Hatton would be getting a guy who while moving up in weight is a respected boxer who can take a shot punch from anybody. And Cassamayor by most peoples estamation is getting pretty old and after a bunch of very close loses may want to think about going afer his last chance at the top. Any thoughts? I think it could be an interesting fight for Hatton comming off his big victory.
Thank you!!!The people that are commenting on the KD fight I bet they didn't even see the fight...the only reason they saying that is because Larry Merchant and Lampley were praising Diamond hardcore...it was pretty sad.
YES i cant believe it, someone who actually agrees with me on casamayor. everyone seems to hate the guy everywhere. ive liked him since i started watching boxing obsessively. ive always been impressed and im glad someone else saw the blow jobs lampley and merchant were giving diamond trying to push him as a big star. even before the fight they gave that little profile on him and nothing for casa.
well lets just hope this fight happens huh. hopefully casamayor skools and embareses hatton so the brits would finally found out how overated hatton was :D
I don't agree, i think that Corrales kept the pressure on Casa in their second fight, and casa didn't land a clean shot until later in the 9th or 10th round.. Castillo and Freitas too, i don't see how u can say that casa should of won these fights..
that is a lie, all chico did was jab and miss with the jab the whole time. casa landed the much cleaner punches throughout. he even put him down in the 10th. castillo was absolutely embarrassed pretty much through the 9th round and yeah he won the last 2 but thats doesnt mean shit. casa landed by far the more effective punches with quitting soul glo bitch freitas, and the kd and point deduction were absolutely not the right calls. anyone can see please go back to the tape if you dont believe me and you will see that the "kd" in the 3rd round called by the most bias referee ever joe cortez was a complete trip on casa's part and freitas missed with his punch that he threw. as far as the diamond fight, casamayor YES CASAMAYOR who doesn thave great power put dimaond down and seriously hurt him in the first round. i was veru surprised when diamond got out of there. but again casa clearly landed the better punches and more punches overall, even though he threw less, so his accuracy was much better also. just b/c a guy is coming forward throwing punches doesnt mean he deserves to win the rounds, if hes landing them then ok we can have an argument but when hes just throwing thats dont mean shit. casa doesnt run either he gives angles and boxes beautifully. spinks is a runner, santos is a runner casa is not like that.
hmm
This fight is a waste of time. Casamayor deserved to lose to Kid Diamond, so he is definitely not going to beat Hatton. Casa was a very good fighter but after fighting Chico twice, and Castillo, and having to struggle to make weight for so long, it's the end of the line for him. I wish he would beat Hatton, cuz I like Casa a lot. But he would lose by stoppage I think.
I scored in favor of Casamayor in his fights with Kid Diamond and Castillo. I thought that the second Corrales fight could have gone either way and the Freitas fight was a fair loss.
Dirty fighters that get "screwed" don't get my sympathy.
have you not seen casa get screwed 4 times in the corrales, castillo, freitas, and diamond fights. casa would easily outbox hatton for a decision win but of course he wouldnt get the W because even though he would lan the cleaner punches, and mor epunches with throwing less the idiot judges will always favor the unskilled brawler coming forward throwing punches, i mean who gives a shit if they land theyre being thrown right?

Your about 80% retarded...
just look at your sig, your username and avatar...
and your posts...
I don't understand how someone can win fights by runnin and not throwing punches?
Casa deserves to get screwed. He's very dirty and when he low blows a guy he looks right at the ref like its not his fault.
If I dont ever see that little short sucker again, I'd be happy.

lol probably would, and could get a decision like dat if hatton misses and casa counters....

I must add one question to this:
Who threw the first illegal blow in that fight?
If you mean first low blow = Tszyu
But Hatton threw a shot to the back of Tszyu's head in the first, which was the first illegal blow.
I'm a HUGE Casa fan, but HAtton would walk through him at this point. Hatton is a lot stronger than anyone that Joel has fought and Joel can't move around the ring like used to anymore. His footspeed and handspeed has diminished and his power wouldn't be enough to trouble Ricky.
Hatton by TKO in the mid-late rounds. As sad as that makes me, it's true.
Thank you!!!!
yup hatton faught magee..and barely won..magee even dropped hatton..
Man!
That was 4 years ago!
Magee dropped Hatton, but Tszyu didn't, so you can't bring up that old shit because he was so young!

Easy win for Hatton. Casamayor is on the decline and Hatton will be much too strong for him. Maybe he keeps him off for 3 or 4 rounds, then gets mauled. It's a good opponent for Hatton. The fight has good name recognition and will sell.
A fight against Floyd is what we need though. Anybody else for Hatton is just treading water.
After running away scared from Mayweather, I think that Hatton does need to save some face and take on a live opponent. I agree that a fight with Cassamayor would give Hatton another name fighter to put on his resume. It seems like Hattons options are fights with either Junior Witter or Carlos Maussa. From a business standpoint I feel that a fight with Cassamayor would be the smartest move for Hatton. Maussa is too green and it seems like Witter likes to bitch over dollars and cents, plus he’s a dangerous fighter right now. In a fight with Cassamayor, Hatton would be able to show off his boxing skills a little more than he did in the Tszyu fight and would be a definite favorite. I wouldn’t count out Cassamayor though if he’s on his game he could possibly beat Hatton in Manchester.
Do you have a picture of Lacy in your av becvause your American. :rolleyes:
You know how annoying it is when idiots like you bring nationallity into it!! By saying you think Hattons dirty, your just saying you have only seen him fight against Tszyu.
