GBP's lightweight tournament: Fantastic idea

[DiegoFuego]

I'd pick the winners to be this:

-Valero vs Julio Diaz
-Joel Casamayor vs Jorge Barrios

Casamayor vs Valero....Casamayor over Valero in an upset. And thinking about it, Cruz and Hernendez deserve nothing, so they should not be apart of this tourney. Still would make a good FNF's match up though

how is that an upset?

How many rounds will it be per fight?

Well probably 10 besides the WBC title fight, which would be 12.

how is that an upset?

In oddamkers eyes, probably. I'd imagine he'd be a good 2:1 or maybe more favorite due to his knockout power.

[DiegoFuego]

Valero has never been in the ring with anybody you could even call decent. How the hell is he going to beat Casamayor? I don't care how old or slow Casamayor has gotten the last couple years. No way a guy like Valero beats a guy like Casamayor.

Sounds like a great idea. Shame they wouldn't do that with other weight classes, namely welterweight

That's a really nasty and viscous wet dream.. .

please!!!

[MANGLER]

Valero's pop ain't yet proven against any real comp, but he's the freshest guy outta all those listed.

Doubt it happens, but if it does, it would be great....
I got Valero but will GBP let him fight in the tourney after the whole Oscam debacle?

[warp1432]

Dude...they are willing to work a deal with Campbell. Campbell wrote a whole ****ing novel on how GBP bascially sucks in his mind (Which Jim Bagg countered with a beautiful article of his own for the record).

Now they are willing to do business with Campbell. Things change.

I'd say either Valero or Casamayor, Casamayor could beat Valero depending on how much he has left.

Casa would outcalss Valero.

Valero = Panchito Bojado (so far)

As I said, it depends on how much Casamayor has left, he also just got knocked out for the first time and one thing you have to give Valero is his power, maybe Casamayor's punch resistance is going a little and who knows what might happen if Valero lands a big punch on his chin.

Skillwise, Casamayor is definitely better.

I haven't really been impressed from what I've seen from Valero but he would be a very tough guy to beat if the rumors of him improving drastically technically under Kenny Adams are true.
