    It would be a great fight. I'd take Diaz though, I'm not really that sold on Rios.

    Hell of a matchup, and probably still would be. Diaz on points.

    Right now it'd be an ass whuppin in which Diaz would get stopped. I'm 100% sure of that. Diaz no longer has the younger, workrate, and punch resistance that he had a few yrs ago.

    Rios, assuming he comes in at 153 or something like that wins.

    How about Juan Diaz vs. a young DLH?

    Hmm damn close fight but since Diaz didnt have all that much power i think he gets walked down. Rios is ****ing big for a LW.

    De La Hoya would have Ko'd a prime Diaz, IMO.

    As for the OG TS question, Diaz prob out points Rios.
    (Especially the version we seen last Sat.)

    I don't think that fight would happen. A Top Rank matchmaker I spoke with told me that Rios needs to learn a bit more. he told me that Vasquez the lightweight champ that recently extinguished the Korean Volcano(who is another Top Rank fighter )would beat the current version of Rios.

    DLH ****ing obliterates him, not even close to the same level of fighter here.

    I think Diaz could still scrap with Rios. I wouldn't be too shocked to be proven wrong.
