Wiley ended Mexican great Julio Cesar Chavez's career in September at US Airways Center. This anticipated war in the ring will decide the IBA America's Welterweight Title.

he's fighting Pearson you dip, not Peterson............
jk, although i expect Casamayor to beat Lamont, i think he's done, i think he hasn't got the desire anymore. his presence in the ring doesn't represent hunger, it says more like, " when do i get paid? "
but he will be somewhat flashy while working, but then fizzles.
at least it seems he's headed that route.Comment

Originally posted by chuckwatersif memory surves me correctly, didnt he lose to Castillo, Freitas, and Corrales?
Extremely close fights however. I had him beating Castillo by a point, drawing with Freitas and losing the Corrales rematch very closely. Those guys (sans Corrales) fought him once and they don't want to see him again. I thought he would have beaten Freitas had it not been for the point deduction.
He's definitely not a fighter people want to face because he presents a VERY difficult style and isn't a huge draw.Comment

I don't think that I have ever seen Casamayor "clearly" beaten.Although the draw with Kid Diamond makes me wonder how much he has left.Comment
