    Go easy on him Freddy. He can at least admit when he is wrong.

    I have been telling people this for a while. Juan Diaz is one hell of a fighter.
    The Diaz that fought Campbell was not very focused and the rough tactics Campbell used took him even more out of his game. I know who im picking in the rematch though.
    Another thing. did you guys finally see the Diaz defense i have been talking about all along. ITS GREAT. He picked off nearly all of katsidis shots.

    Juan is a good technical fighter who throws a lot of Combos, physically nothing outstanding as he has little power and is not really physically powerful. He will outwork or outbox anyone with inferior boxing skill. Once the Opponent shows up with a little boxing skill or athlletic ability coupled with strength or power Juan will lose. case in point Campbell.

    I noticed how avenging that loss is not a high prority during the post fight interview. He called out two names instead of calling out the guy who beat him down. That to me is very telling about the Juan Diaz Express.

    Diaz is awesome to watch and can still be the man at 135 I believe.

    Kellerman asked him what he's plans from now on. And Juan said he'd like to reestablish himself as the premeire LW again and uttered 2 names in Marquez and Casamayor. Although to be fair he did followed it up by saying "anyone".

    I was at the fight and notice his defense was very good. Some people around me didn't know **** about boxing thought he lost. Me and this other dude were like WTF wrong with this people. These people were too busy going back and forth getting beer. They practically missed majority of the fight and based the outcome on the last 3 rounds.

    Yep. Majority of Kats punches landed on Diaz's gloves and elbows.

    thats why im so mad at pac-dlh happening. after dlh brutalizes pac, never will we see diaz-pac EVER. and if it does and diaz wins, he will get absolutely no credit.

    ive always maintained this position even after the campbell loss-- diaz kicks pacs ass i dont care what anyone says.

    In boxing it's a given that the other guy is going to come forward and hit you. If you can't figure that out, it's way past time to hang'em up.
