    The guy needs to get his head in the game. He looked like the light welterweight Arreola...

    I think he's done at the top level. Paulie wobbled him for Christ sake. His best bet is to go back to 135.... but Valero would knock him cold.

    He should start by not trying to play a jab game.

    Move back to 135 and try to get a title...I think Funeka and Valero beat him though, probably by KO.

    Lose a lot of weight and get down to 130 where he belongs.

    Diaz should go back to lw he has no business at lww as long as he faces guys who are there to be hit he should be fine.

    Anyone utilizing movement is going to give him hell. Give him a rock 'em sock 'em sort of fighter, I guess. He's not elite, but he's usually entertaining. Tonight he really wasn't letting his hands go, albeit Malignaggi was on the move.

    Not sure really but its obvious he needs to drop some weight. He isnt going to win many fights against the top dogs at 140.
