I dont know if its just me but i think this would be a blood bath. I still think Soto is the man to beat Pac and would no doubt beat Diaz in a possible FOTY. I dont discredit Soto for losing to Guzman. Guzman is a good fighter and akward as hell to fight.
I would probably pick Soto to beat David Diaz, but I do descresit him for his loss to Guzman. Did he not realize that Guzman was going to be slick? It was as if he trained for a straight-ahead fighter and was surprised that Guzman was so slick. But none of this matters in a fight against D. Diaz. Soto's style would work much better, he just needs to avoid slicksters like Guzman. I don't think Soto is the guy to beat Pac, either. The man to beat Pac is named Joan Guzman, and i really doubt Manny will ever fight him.
Well yea i think Guzman beats pac in a boring fight though. However a Soto-Pac fight would be a war and both have very good chins and power.
