From what I've seen he throws more like 55-60 Depensing on what the opponent does he can have long periods of inactivity.
What people have to remember is, Diaconu is a light heavy and Pascal is moving up. I don't know about you guys but receiving a punch from a light-heavy is different than frmo a super middle. Also, Diaconu punches hard for a light heavy.
lets go diaconu!!!! :happy:happy:happy i always love it when short guys fight in the"big boy division". It really makes the manny pacs out their look like bitches with their "catch weights"
Eh. When he wings it, he throws hard, but a lot of them are jabs and short straight lefts. When he throws power shots, they tend to be more hooking, which wouldn't play to his advantage against the much longer Pascal.
Diaconu looked better than expected in the weigh in, but I'm still rolling with a Pascal UD. Should be a good fight! :thumbsup
atsch I think you need to re think your comment. Froch's lone win over Taylor is better than anything Diaconu has done in his whole career.:deal BTW make a poll and we'll see who poeple think is the better fighter.
Both fighters are from Montreal, and the fight is in Montreal, and they're promoted by the two biggest promoters in Montreal, and they both have decent-sized but not huge fanbases in Montreal, so I don't think there will be much of an advantage here one way or the other.
