What should JMM do now??

Juan Diaz is a straight out comefoward pressure fighter......
.....Nate Campbell who is much lesser skilled than JMM, boxed the pants off of Diaz.

....and contrary to the belief of many, Diaz does'nt put on more than a couple of pounds once he weighs in at the lightweight limit.

It I'm not mistaken, I believe he went into the ring at fight time against Campbell weighing 138 lbs, which is about the same that JMM weighed at the unofficial scales of HBO on fight night vs Pacquiao.

Juan Diaz is not a big lightweight Morrissey, and he's far from a big puncher.

A fighter coming straight at JMM who is not a big puncher.....I'd say thats tailor made for someone of the abilities of JMM!

 

Would you say he will have an easy time versus Diaz compared to what ha had against Pac?

I haven't seen Diaz' fight with Campbell, but I know Campbell is underrated here, and it showed there.

 

I think you are underesmtimating the size difference. Diaz' high work rate, and his youth will be very difficult for JMM to counter.

 

If he ko's the new sensation GAMBOA...It will add luster to his resume.

 

Luster to his resume? It will at least add something to it. He doesn't have a stellar resume other than fighting Pac tough and beating an older Barrera. Lets not forget the losses to Norwood and John.

 

Pac is always dangerous because he can hurt you with a single shot.

Diaz wears an opponent out by accumulation.......
.....thats going to be hard to accomplish against a fighter who trains at as high an altitude as JMM does.

.....before the JMM-Pac rematch, everyone was giving the stamina advantage to Pac even though JMM won almost every round past the 2nd in their first fight.....
.....the rematch proved that JMM is the better conditioned fighter stamina wise.

Diaz has'nt fought and beaten anyone of note that would lead me to believe he would wear down JMM!

You've got to see Diaz vs Campbell Morrissey......Campbell was ripping Diaz on the way in, and was digging body shots to Diaz' midsection.
I thought Diaz was getting overrated by many even before the Campbell fight, and the Campbell fight showed that Diaz was a very beatable fighter.
Campbell is'nt a great boxer, but his versatility is what got the job done against Diaz.....I'll tell you right now that imo, Juan Diaz does'nt do much better than Rocky Juarez did against JMM.

The skill difference between JMM and Juan Diaz is huge, and Juan does'nt have the power to stop JMM!

 

What size difference, Diaz is not a big lightweight, he's always under the 140 lbs range at fight time!

For a junior lighweight fight, Pac weighs in at 144 lbs fight time, several pounds above what Diaz does.
