I think Pac is taking the Diaz, JMM, Juan Diaz route. Id still have much prefered a JMM, David, Juan lineup but oh well. He intends to fight 3months after David so if this is just a tuneup for a major fight with either JMM or Juan, it cant be too bad. A darn shame hes not taking out JMM at 130 though.
A bit disappointed? yes. A less challenging fight than Marquez? On paper, yes. That being said, Manny is deserving of a tune up fight and the fact that his idea of a tune up is a fight where he not only moves up in weight but challenges for a title is a testament to his high standard of competition. All in all this should be a very fan friendly fight and hopefully the Marquez rematch isn't neglected after this fight.
