Jaun Diaz will win this fight easily. I never though much of Julio Diaz in fact Nate Campbell would beat him.
That, or because Juan's bulldoggish style would cause major problems for anyone who isn't a master counterpuncher, and that's something Julio ain't. The only at 135 with a real shot against Juan is Casamayor, and even that's only a 50/50 proposition since Casa's on the downswing of his career. The one I'm waiting for is Diaz-Hatton at 140 in late '08.
i think Julio Diaz is being slept on...he has more power than Juan, and imo better overall skills...Juan Diaz is a very tough, come-forward banger, but Julio has more options in the ring...and the beating Castillo gave Julio has made him a better fighter, much like when Margo raped Cintron...i put my money on a Julio SD...
Cool, hes really going for the unification! Juan Diaz is a good young fighter, maybe the next undisputed champion of the world! But i hope hes improving and gest in better shape, for a lightweight he looks verry fat. Poor genetics maybe.
i take Julio. i htrink his movement and effective countering will win the fight. but by no means is it anything other than a pickem
juan maybe...katsidis vs david diaz would b nice...everyone is ducking Casa and waiting for him to b ripe for the picking... Juan and Julio is an excellent match up
This will be a barn burner of a fight. Julio is a fine boxer that can really crack, he has some chin issues and stamina problems. The chin won't fail him as Juan can't crack that hard, but his stamina will fail him with Juan's workrate. I like Juan Diaz by close UD, unless Julio lands something big early.
Well, they'd be doing it without the IBF title too. The winner of Diaz-Diaz must fight Nate Campbell next or be stripped of the IBF belt.........
