...and Wlad would gain a belt by beating Peters. So? If he's already convinced he is the lightweight champion, he doesn't need to prove it with a couple more worthless belts. Casamayor didn't just say he didn't care to fight Campbell, he said he wanted to fight (IIRC) Pac-Man or (I think) Guzman. As for the money, why wouldn't he get just as much if not more money fighting a highly-regarded small in a country that cares about small boxers?
Another thing going through Casamayor's mind probably is Diego Corrales. He TKO'd Corrales in 2003, then fought him again... and lost. That's the point about Campbell. It's not that it wouldn't be a good fight, it's that Casamayor has nothing to gain from it.
