Manny Pac-Juan Diaz, and Arturo Gatti-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr being discussed
Apparently Don King and Arum are trying to work together, these two fights are being talked about.
Diaz-Pac would be awesome. Gatti-Cesar Chavez Jr. is odd but I guess it kind of makes sense, definitely would make financial sense.
Also Tito possibly coming back.
Its Dan Rafael's blog, I don't have the ESPN insider so I can't see all of it but here's what they do show

Diaz-Pac would be an awesome fight indeed.
This two has been calling each others names out for a while now.
Eventhough Pac is half inch taller than Diaz, I think Pac will still look small for 135.
Pac will be the underdog on this one.
But don't be surprised if the Pacman will SHOCK THE WORLD again.

Pacman by TKO vs Diaz.Don't like the match up though.I would prefer PAcman vs JMM.

pac will whoop diaz, but damn wheres jmm ???
Re: Manny Pac-Juan Diaz, and Arturo Gatti-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr being discussed
at 135 diaz will look bigger than pac. some questions though, do his power shots powerful enough to back pacman down? it is likely only because it is at a higher weight pac is fighting now. let's say he hurt pac alright, is his stamina tested enough to sustain his volume of punches? so that if in case he cannot knock pacman out, he would at least gain an edge in the scoring card late in the game. This alone is questionable. .
There are many problems diaz would be facing too against pac. Pacs power is still due to be tested against higher weight, and it is also likely that pac will still be very strong at that weight. If he[pac] is, then horrendous problem belies in diaz account because not only he will be facing an opponent who can really hurt him but throws faster and insane amount of power shots combinations; he will be facing and feelin it till the very last round because pacs stamina is not something ordinary. If he waits for pac to slowdown it will not happen, soon he realizes pac is getting judges attention due to his aggressiveness and most possibly be way ahead in the scoring cards due to enormous volume of punches he[pac] had obviosuly thrown. diaz will panic, lose his focus, fight toe to toe in the hope to regain points and some judges attention. too late blam... same old thing that happens to other pacs opponents. If he has an extraordianry skill like JMM,MAB, or EM paired with his effective strength [if it could truly hurt and back down pac] then it might save his day.

i hope not too bad tho, cuz i want him to go to law school. he would be a good image for boxing if he does go to law school and graduates.

Glad to see these two old guys work together.
I'd want Pac to fight Marquez asap... but I think Goldy is a stubborn @ss boy.
Just my hunch.
Re: Manny Pac-Juan Diaz, and Arturo Gatti-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr being discussed
JMM needs a big payday. He deserves it and everybody seems to be clamoring for the rematch. I don't think Pac should move up to lightweight anytime soon with Guzman, Valero and a possible rematch with Barrera still on the horizon at 130lbs.
Re: Manny Pac-Juan Diaz, and Arturo Gatti-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr being discussed
I'm feeling less excited about a Pac-JMM rematch with every passing moment as I don't think it'll happen. Diaz vs. Pac would be interesting, and while I love Pac, I think Diaz is the future so I want him to win.
As for Gatti, I don't see it. He'll retire after his next fight.
Tito...is teasing us. I just think he likes his name still in the spotlight. I doubt he'll come back.
