    Joel Casamayor

    What are his best fights to watch?

    I caught the end of his fight with Yoni Vargas, and I must say, I am a tad intrigued. I watched a couple of his fights a while back when I was with my girlfriend, so I didn't intently watch, taking in every detail.

    Obviously he is slick as ****, and a southpaw.

    I've heard he is like De La Hoya in having so many bad decisions (going both ways).

    I've also heard his trilogy with Corrales was actually very good, considering one fighter is a hit and not get hit slickster.

    What else can you all tell me about him?

    Yeh he gets as many bad decisions, kind of like the crap De La Hoya got against Sturm.

      I've heard his fight against Freitas was just the same though. I heard he has been robbed and gotten gifts.

        The guy could easily be undefeated. His losses have all had some bit of controversy in them, usually losing by a point or two on the cards. Most underrated fighter of the past 10 years, though his age and inactivity hurts him now. Would like to see how he handles Katsidis in a early FOY candidate, imo. After that, why not try and face Pacquiao? He could really increase his popularity if he looks good against him. He hasnt much time left, so he should go after the big names, like Juan Diaz, JMM or Guzman. I think he could make it a tough fight against ANY guy he faces.

            By far the most exciting Casamayor fight was the first one against Corrales. Some of his other fights are pretty good, but this one really stands out.
