Pretty interesting fight of two undefeated prospects tonight. Practically a coin-flip imo. Dont be fooled by Kennedy being from Philly, he fights nothing like it and for Diaz...well he went the distance with a shot blown-up Emmanuel Lucero and was frustrated with him at times in his last outing. who do you think wins it tonight? :bbb
I think Diaz will smash him. Diaz hasn't looked amazing, but he has looked much better than Kennedy. Teon is just too flawed a fighter to beat someone as aggresive and powerful as Diaz. Kennedy, throughout his whole career, even in his amateur fights, stays in front of his opponent, in the pocket, for far too long without movement. He is much too easy to hit, and lesser fighters than Diaz have landed consistently enough on Teon to arguably win decisions. Diaz is going to be throwing lots, being agressive, and Kennedy will try to stay inside and trade with Diaz. That's why I think it will be an early night for Kennedy. I just can't see how he wins this.
The fact that Kennedy more than likely wont beat Jorge Diaz is an indication of how ridiculous a Juanma fight would have been had it came to fruition.
Ill be honest after reading your post I was about to place a bet on Diaz since I was almost convinced it was going to be a whitewash. But thats the beauty of boxing...nothign is certain.
:yep I actually bet on Teon in Kirks thread. Officially picked Diaz though. Nothing is certain. It was a great fight that exceeded our expectations, and the deserving man won. Yay for boxing :happy
