- jmm/diaz (where jmm got tagged easily and hurt by a feather fised diaz)
- campbell/diaz (where diaz got beat up much easier by campbell)
- jmm/casamayor (where casamayor was pretty much semi-shot)
- casamayor/cruz (where casamayor got gifted w/ a robberyy)
so if all casual fans go by is watching pac/jmm I & II, pac/dlh, and pac/hatton, they're gonna think jmm is fighting on an even playing field.
if they truly thinks so, I think this fight might do well financially because GBP is really pushing the "jmm actually beat pac" line down the casual fans throat.
in anycase I think it's gonna be a great fight and a wonderful set-up / eliminator for the winner to get pac.
