Casamayor is shot. I've followed him since the 90's. He was real good then...but hes done now. If Corrales wasnt screwed from the weight he could have stopped Joel. Goosen wasnt helping and giving bad advice. He kept sayin to go for the chest w/the right cuz Casa was moving alot. When Chico did throw the right he missed the head.
The guy he fought beofre Chico, Lamont Pearson, Casamayor looked like ass against a virtual no name. I saw some interviews w/him and hes bitter cuz hes broke. Hes just looking for a super big payday. I do like Casamayor and feel bad about his life and finances...but hes still shot.
And besides who's really calling him out? At 135lbs, not too much for him to work with. So let him chase guys outside his division. That says alot about a fighter.

Hes 35 too...not exactly in his prime.
As for his competition theres always Diaz and Diaz...lol. Super-Feather and Light-Welts are loaded w/fighters. His reach and height are fine to go up and he'd have a advantage going lower. Its only a matter of 5/lbs either way. Like I said, he is getting old though.

Originally posted by EMPOROAR View PostHatton would work Juan Diaz similiar to how he did Castillo and he would outwork Casamayor and probably stop him. Two different class of fighters.
I do think Ricky might stop Casamayor...I'de have to see how Joels movement effects Hatton though.

I say he stops him...reason being is the last fight with Castillo. I have never seen Hatton like that. He looked like an animal. Diaz is a similiar fighter to Castillo...tighter D but not quite the body puncher and offensive skills. It would be a good fight for a few rounds, Diaz' skills would make it interesting
And don't get me started with Casamayor. If he try's fighting dirty with Hatton...what do you think is going to happen?He is going to get mauled like no other.

I think Diaz fights very different from Castillo. Diaz puts together combos and not a inside fighter like Jose is.
I've watched Hatton for a while I thought hes looked better before than he did against Castillo. Castillo is clearly past his prime. Reyes and Ngoudjo made that clear.
If Casamayors movement doesnt effect Hatton is Joel comes in like he did against Pearson, all slow and ****, its a bad night for Joel.
