No, I'd say it's a testament to Manny's punching power at that weight if anything. Like I said, if being down a total of five times in 54 career fights, having only been downed by Pacquiao and Barrera and having never been knocked out makes this guy's chin "very weak" then who in the **** has even a decent chin?
jmm is simply too crafty & too skilled for the baby bull. i don't see a KO happening though. diaz is one tough son of a *****. man, i can't wait for this fight! there's so much at steak. the only thing im not looking forward too is hearing diaz' grandma screaming in the crowd during the fight... somebody needs to shut that ***** up!!! viva marquez!!!
Nate Cambell is on the same level as Casamayor, veteran who can still bring it as Juan Diaz and Katsidis found out the hard way, but someone with the talent of JMM shows you what happens to these old veterans. Juan Diaz is going to get taught a lesson.
I kind of hope this happens personally. Juan Diaz is personable, he's got a fan friendly TV frendly style, he's a Mexican-American who speaks both languages and he seems ready for any sort of challenge. A win over a top 3 P4P guy in boxing like JMM would be great for boxing because it COULD potentially give way for Juan Diaz to become one of boxing's future superstars. Think about Diaz' run: He knocked off Popo destroyed a very good Julio Diaz, lost an awesome gritty fight with Nate Campbell, outclassed a good Michael Katsidis and now he's facing top 3 P4P great JMM. What a better way for Diaz to take the throne as Mexico's new superstar than to beat JMM in Houston?
Pac's ass got KO'd by a journeyman at best. Pretty bad when you get STARCHED by a C level fighter. Out cold son. When he finally managed to win a title he tried to make his 2nd title defense, got rocked, and stopped again. Mine might have the warts but yours has ****in skin cancer. Can you see that?
Can't see it myself, Diaz doesn't have the power to demolish Marquez. He could out work him but I think Marquez will counter him all night and get a UD.
