yes but diaz's best attribute with his high workrate and shots thrown was his punch resistance if you watched his last fight you would see that its no longer there
i don't remember how the fight went exactly, Diaz got cut early didn't he? I remember Lundy landing alot on him and then KO'd him with a big shot. Lundy is a different fighter than Zab, he has good movement and reflexes, Zab is finished in that department and would have to stand and fight. Even if Diaz has lost some stamina it should still be enough to be competitive with this Zab imo.
Zab Judah used to be a 4 rounder fighter. Nowadays, he is a 2 rounder. If he does not get his opponent in that round, he just gives up. And Diaz, despite his limited skills would keep pounding until there is none left. Zab Juadh has half the heart of Acelino Freitas.
i guess your right but diaz id also look bad against soto which is why i think judah would beta him at this point i mean judah did get beaten pretty convincingly by khan but other than that he hasnt looked too bad in his comeback
He didn't look that impressive when he won the belt imo. He wasn't doing much in the rounds, Mabuza was starting to get to him before the KO. He still has KO power though, he proved that, and he could knock Diaz out for sure. I think it's an intriguing matchup and there's some history behind it to help sell it. Diaz could also try for Morales if Erik wants a warmup before challenging DeMarco, there would be some interest in that aswell.
youve actually got me interested in a fight between them two now lol and yeah that would be a good fight for morales in mexico im sure hes still bitter about that defeat because many including me felt he won that
Lundy did him in 6. Holt did him in 8. Why not talk about those guys David? I guess that wouldn't be much of a story huh.
only haters in this forum are fond of making excuses for the fighters, shot, weight drained, damaged goods, faded, etc.
