    This is a fight I would love to see and I honestly could not call it. Both men are warriors. This has the makings of an all-time classic bout if it were to ever happen.

    diaz called him out because he is the biggest draw in the lighter weights. i think it's kind of gay when you call out somebody and ask that somebody to step up in weight. in diaz really wants pac, he should fight him in the 130-132 range. there is absolutely no sense in pac fighting at 135 except if morales beats david diaz, pac might challenge Eric for the hang of it.

    I read somewhere that Diaz is even willing to go down at 130 just to fight Pac.
    At 135, I'm giving the edge to Diaz.
    At 130, Pac by KO

    At 130, I favor Pac, and at 140, I say Diaz by close decision in a GREAT fight

    I guess you can say im a Pacmaniac

    but have to say this fight is all wrong for Pacman

    the size differential would be too big, its practically a flyweight vs a welterweight....in fact it is!!!

    the only people who want this fight are Pac haters who need to be shot in the head.

    i agree, marquez, guzman, barerra, soto and valero must fight pac first. and in that order too.

    but it will be a good match up for diaz's sake because pac is a bigger draw than any opponent he may have at 135. there's absolutely no way roach is going to allow this fight to happen at 135! they did not even allow the morales to be fought at 132, much less 135

    Diaz much too fast and too busy for Manny.
    Also, Manny's power should not be a factor at 135.
    Atleast not with Diaz.

    Skillwise, Pac is 2 levels above Diaz, but due to the size differential it might be a very close fight. Still Pac wins it.

    Pac is faster, better footwork, better at creating angles, better head movement, better combos, more accurate, better at blocking punches, better at countering.

    They have equal stamina, or maybe a slight edge to Pacquiao.

    Diaz is MUCH stronger.

    Diaz could take Pac`s power punches.
    Pac could also handle diaz`s punches.
    I would say Diaz would win by decision
    because of his punches workrate is
    too much for pac.
