Rank the Lightweights

[Left Hook Tua]

Juan Manuel Marquez is rated above Campbell, even though he has never fought at lightweight?

Why did Campbell fight for the belts anyways when he wasn't going to be recognized as a champion even if he won?

I'd say dropping a guy who has a serious age advantage over you three times and then KTFO him is ample evidence that Casamayor, the winner, is better than the defeated Katsidis.

Just because someone has less defeats doesn't make him better. People worship and idolize people with undefeated records, until they lose that is.

I'd put my money on Casamayor because he figured out Katsidis and was able to KTFO him.

juan ma , you could say , beat my #1 twice.

I cant put Pac at the top until he beats Campbell or Casa

[majestiC]

anyone seen anything of Paulus Moses before? looks a bit of a ****er.

Pacquiao should not be rated at 1 or 2 cuz he only fought once.

JMM should not be rated yet, lets wait after his first lightweight fight.

my list is from the future.

it's after juan ma beats joel , after juan beats michael , after joan beats campbell and after manny has left edwin laying on the floor in a pool of his own overrated blood...... :-)

I'd say that matched tough again and Katsidis will take another loss. You can bump that.

That may prove very prophetic after he fights Juan Diaz this September. If Diaz improves off the Campbell fight I expect him to handle Katsidis.

OK. I apologized, misread the post.

If Diaz doesn't improve then he might just be up s**t's creek with Katsidis. Katsidis is the perfect opponent to not fight your normal fighting style against. He's going to have to protect himself better because the beatings his face has taken since early in his career, those don't help you last long in the sport.

wishful think i guess. :-)

i don't know...... a lot of the top guys would beat david diaz but i don't know if they could dominate david like manny did.

2nd.
