        Campbell holds the regular WBO title while Casamayor is the WBO interim title holder.

        This should be an interesting fight.

            I dont think his career would SNAP! He's got too many fans.

            Everyone in the Phillipines worships Pac. If he loses he would just continue

            fighting just like DLH. Pac= Superstar

              I think Diaz might beat him. If people think Hatton would beat Pacman then why not Diaz, they are pretty similar in style and the size and strength disparity won't be a million miles apart. Pacman is a head on warrior he is always in danger of getting beaten by someone who is just too big and strong.

                True, Pac is not a great boxer.

                He relies too much on his powerful left hand. If David can take Pacs punches

                I have a feeling Pac may be in for a long night.

                  Pac can win as long as he doesn't blatantly try to go for a KO against Diaz. He should just outbox/outwork him all night and make a bed of points to fall back on in case he can't hurt David. If the chance for a stoppage presents itslef, take it, but don't get greedy tryin to please the crowd in his 1st 135 lb fight. If he fights reckless Diaz has a chance to make sumthin happen cuz he's so much bigger.

                    Diaz will be easy to hit, Pac wins by either TKO (cuts) or stoppage.

                    Then Pac goes back down to 130 as there's no way he can take on Katsidis.

                    Or....Pac moves up for a suicidal match with Hoya.
