Rios murders Juan Diaz, I think. In a battle of two aggressive fighters like these guys it has to go to who can give and take the better shots, and that's Brandon Rios. They can both take a good one, but Diaz's chin has been worn down (got wobbled by Paulie).
To me Diaz is a better inside fighter than Rios and that's where they'll end up fighting. I just don't think he'll have the size and strength to beat Rios , but I do believe that Diaz would get the better of the exchange since he has the quick hand speed he just doesn't have any power.
Color me nonplussed and very unimpressed with Rios. If Diaz has anything in the tank at all he should be able to outclass him. If not ... well, maybe there isn't much left in him.
Diaz is not the same fighter he was PRE JMM THe devastating KO ruined him mentally in the Boxing ring.. he lost all hunger and in JMM2 was happy to just survive and go the distance....He does not deserve the name baby bull anymore as he change his style of fighting completely He does not like Exchanging anymore and boxes all night. Anyone that doubt's this, watch JMMDIAZ1 and MALIGANI 2 and then JMM DIAZ 2 to see how his style drastically changed. RIOS takes it.
