Me neither... to be fair tho, he looked very young in that fight & even if he wasnt, anyone can be caught.
I don't want to denigrate Jeremy Jackson, but that was back in 2002 when Diaz was fighting in his fifth pro fight and had just turned 19. Diaz went on to beat Jackson two times in 2003. The first time by TKO and the second by submission.
I would love to see Mayorga knock Diaz' head off. The trash talk in the build up to that KO would be worth the price of admission. I think challenging Mayorga makes sense as he was at one time going to fight in MMA - but Don King put a stop to it at the last minute.
Nick was a completely different fighter then. He has evolved so much, it is unreal. Even bracing yourself for the shot changes and he pretty much got clipped and destroyed but they weren't great punches. He didn't know what to do.
Fedor is quite honest about it too. From an interview on M-1 Global's website: Would you dare to enter the ring against either of the Klitschko brothers in the rules of boxing? I think today, I’m not ready for it. Probably because I never competed in professional boxing. If you look objectively, then I simply would not stand a chance.
i know...i'm just saying that till this day no one has came close to stopping diaz...... do you have vids of those other two fights...i havn't been able to see them
