Is anyone else as excited as I am about tomorow's fights?

I had forgotten about this fight and made plans with my friends and i just told them this week that i had to cancel due to the fight tomorow.
Its a bitter sweet fight for me as I am a huge fan of both fighters. A loss for either would definately put them both in the back of the line. Well Diaz more than JMM.

I have not seen JMM fight for a long time and I am always very excited to see him fight again. Not to mention the styles make for a very interesting fight. Sadly someone has to lose and I am thinking JMM is just too determined at the moment to lose to anyone. Juan Diaz is the future of the LW division but he has stated he plans on concentrating on his studies soon and i think a loss might push him more towards that.

A draw would be bad for JMM as it would lower his rising stock so he needs the win. The only thing that would benefit both fighters is if they give a FOTY candidate type of fight with JMM edging a close decision.
Diaz still has many years if he chooses to continue while JMM is at the end of it. Although the way these new old guys are fighting I wouldnt be surprised if JMM makes it to 40 at the top level.

The Juarez fight is also interesting since I get to see an upclose look at Chris John. I hope his ass gets KOd by Juarez so he can finally get that title he has fallen short on on so many occasions and to get John back for that hometown decision he got against JMM.

Predictions:
JMM UD something around 7-5. Possible ref stoppage in the later rounds.
John UD Something around 8-4. Juarez just too slow for the elite...

 

Hell yeah ima see it live tomarrow.

 

I was planning on going to it too but i recently moved so im not close to Houston like I was before.

 

Diaz will have a hard time winning that one. The thing he has in his favor is weight and age. Which are good ones usually but in this case JMM has enough left to win it. 35 used to be old in boxing at lightweight. At heavyweight anyone can fight up to 45 it seems.

 

The thing is that JMM keeps in great shape so he might be able to fight longer. If he turned into the old JMM he might fight on longer but that doesnt win him as many fans.

Has anyone else noticed how JMM has an 8 pack? I dont think I had seen that on him prior to the 2nd Pac fight. Which is crazy considering he is getting older and moving up in weight so you would expect his body to lose some tone.

 

O really, I live in Houston. I went to the last juan Diaz fight aswell. I'm more excited this time around tho can't wait to see marquez in a flesh:good

 

I was living in Corpus for a while. I was really looking forward to this fight. I hope you have a good one man. That would be watching my 2 favorite fighters in one night....

 

I got a bit of money riding on JMM on this one so yea

 

$hit im ready for the fights tomorrow...12 pack, steaks, and some Crown Royal!!

 

Thanks man, it sucks that a real fan of both fighters like yourself can't make it bro.

 

Hellzya...

 

What are the odds like right now? IM sure JMM is the favorite but what exactly are the odds?

 

stoked. too bad i dont have HBO anymore and nowhere around me is going to show it.

 

Juarez is 5"5 ..damn. Didn't know he was that short.

 

F*cken Pumped

JMM
