They are both very likable guys and I wish only the best for them. I think Diaz will win. Youth will overcome old age and treachery....damn it! Nate seemed very grounded and family oriented in his latest interviews on ESPN...does it all for his kids.
Huh? First of all, Diaz contract with King doesn't expire until March 31, and what difference would it make anyways? Diaz has a mandatory due with Campbell (who is co-promoted by King), and the fight is on a card (Maskaev-Peter) that is being promoted by King. I don't understand your point.
Great match-up. Campbell is a worthy challenger and deserves this fight. I'm leaning Diaz's way but Campbell is no walkover. I'll look much closer at this match when it draws near.:smoke :smoke
Boxing rec is infomous for jumping the gun ..I say this is rumor for now but if true its a tough fight for the Baby Bull .
Nate is capable of pulling the upset. His power and speed was displayed when he fought Kid Diamond. I just can't pick against Diaz right now, but Nate is a very live underdog.
I say it like that just because in another 2 threads people just straight hate on Great Nate. He is a good fighter and when he is mentally there is a force to be reckoned with. I just hate when people wriite a good fighter off so quickly. Just don't be surprised if he puts Baby Bull down or SD/UD's him. It's not like he's a shot fighter. While he certainly does have mental issues, when he is on point he can certainly put the hurt on someone. I understand that he has lost a quarter of his 135# fights, but we have all seen that records don't necerarily speak on a fighters potential.
