JD is NOT overrated. He is one of the best in that division.

You forgot to mention how he systematically beat down Acelino Frietas.

One of the most consistant guys in boxing, really have to respect Juan.

A shot Acelino Frietas who clearly didnt want to fight.

Shot's not the right word for Freitas, at least not physically. He's not physically a shot fighter, his legs aren't gone, reflexes aren't gone, etc. Mentally he might be shot or "not want to fight" but he really always had a questionable mentality.

Yup, like a shot MAB vs in fight 3 and shot MAB in fight 2. I would have to say JMM in not shot but is also not the same

Diaz UD

Hey, you can keep rubbin' it. I deserve it. Good call :mad:. I already gave you a good rep.

But I still believe JD was never overrated. He had a bad start and his Achilles heel got exposed by a better fighter.

No excuses.

Don King has to be pretty freaking happy now. I bet if Diaz did not fire King before the fight, he may have got a gift decision.


The Galaxy Warrior looked awesome.

Don King definitely knows his boxing. Diaz wanted to leave him so he found the guy with the style to put a crimp in his career.
