    Marquez for me. Sharper puncher. Smarter fighter. Won't be standing around to let Diaz land those big combos.

    Should be a good fight though.

    Buncey has mentioned that he's been pushing to get the fight on Setanta.

    No news yet though. Would be a shame to miss this one.

    I know that Setanta have secured deals with Hayemaker,Top Rank,Sauerland, and maybe others which is fantsatic but I'm interested how Buncey goes about securing extra fights on Setanta.
    They must have a budget allocated to each sport each month? or yearly?based on the previous year/month of subscriptions.
    So then Buncey and his team have to go cap in hand and convince the budget handlers/or management that an event will bring new subscribers in and please this amount of existing subscribers/boxing fans.
    It can't be easy trying to get the point across but I suppose they have viewing figures to work off.

    I'm just veering towards Marquez for the same reasons and for the fact that he was outstanding against Pacquiao and Casamayor.

    But I do think Diaz is going to make him work extremely hard. It's gonna close I think.

    Spot on Trotter.... Diaz is awesome but if Nate Campbell can beat him, so can Marquez.

    Diaz might cause a few problems with his volume of punches. He needs to get back to what he'd good at and not worry about trying to box.

    Marquez should win, though. He has all the speed advantages, the power adavantages, and he should be able to capitlise on Diaz's rounder punches with his own straight counters. Diaz only really has volume going for him in this fight, so he needs to really put on some pressure.

    This depends on the weight issue for JMM for me but I'm leaning towards Marquez.
