Moving right along... Pacquiao v. Diaz on June 28

[GAME]

I just posted this less than an hour ago...

Re: Pacquaio 145? Only 3-4 pounds lighter than Floyd fights... can it happen?
Might I suggest this list...

come up fights:
David Diaz
Santa Cruz
Casamayor
Kid Diamond

big fights:
Ricky Hatton
Nate Campbell
Juan Diaz
Joan Guzman (ltwt)

Ive highlighted the fights I wanna see . Diaz looked poor vs Morales but I think his style mixes wel with Pacs and they'd compliment each other. Hatton vs Pac is a big fight and Ive favour the Brit cuz of his size . If he charges Pac like he did to Tszyu I think he can wear him down .

Juan Diaz may have lost to Campbell but I think just like the other Diaz his style and Pacs make for a good mix

Joan Guzman would be the fight to determien the best in this weight class and I think Guzman is a biger threat than Marquez was

This isnt to say that I dont wana see Marquez- Pac 3 but I think its getting old and so is Marquez . Pac doesnt wana keep rematching these guys especially if hes not losing cuz theres no need . I think Marquez won both fights personally but I wouldnt be so confident in him beating Pac in the 3rd fight cuz last night took alot out of him and his reflexes look as if they are in decline .

I realy want see the fight of Pac vs Hatton if Pac move up weight to 140 pnd., it will be a great fight Pac can handle that weight without problem and more strong......

Pac Vs. Hatton will probably one of boxing's biggest brawls. But until then, the Pac Vs. Diaz match will probably be very good to watch. Both wants to move forward and they are killers in their own rights.


Pacquiao Vs. Diaz

[:::PSL:::]

Pac said he'll use his speed to defeat Diaz.

[Dizaster]

Pac said he'll use his speed to defeat Diaz.

I think Pac's speed both in attack and defence will help him to match, and possibly beat Hatton as well.... I'm sure this fight will happen at the start of '09.... A brilliant way to start the year for Hatton and Pac fans...

Not sure if it will help vs Hatton but thats a different story

As for Diaz, Pacs speed will give him a big advantage here. Diaz fights like a puncher but he isnt so he is gonna get hit alot in this fight and its a question of whther he can keep coming or if it knocks the fight out of him .

They say both are go getters but I predict Pac wil definatly be playing the matador to Diaz' bull . Early on Pacs gonna be looking great, getting out the way with superior movement and skill. Dont be surprised if Diaz hits the deck afew times . Then as the fight goes on It will get messy, Pac might start moaning about elbows/headbutts etc Diaz will be marked up and adanger of him being stopped on cuts. Towards the end Diaz will be pressing and really testing how much Pac wants it. Morales was use to wars so he handled Diaz ok but Pac may be abit more uncomfrtable cuz nobody has taken the fight to him since pre Nov 03 . Duno if Diaz will get a decision over Pac cuz its the type of fight where he will need to k.o Pac to get a draw but I think it will be a better fight than the easy win most are expecting .

I agree, Pac has trouble against fighters who can roughhouse him like Agapito Sanchez, and Hussein. This time it's gonna be somebody who's bigger and stronger. Pac's gonna need to stick and move in this one.

I basically responded to this same thing in another thread, but that just doesn't make sense to me.. Did Morales not fight Pacquiao 3 times before fighting Diaz And he didn't take the fight to Pacquiao? Hell he took the fight to Diaz when he was able to with his ancient legs. And another thing, did anyone think maybe there's a reason people haven't taken the fight to Pac when possible, because it plays right into his hands? I've actually heard comments that suggest Diaz will be a harder fight than Marquez because he'll take the fight to Manny and be pressing forward. It's such utter BS. Marquez could be a better come forward fighter than Diaz if he wanted to, but obviously he was going to use what works against Pacquiao. The trouble is Diaz doesn't posses those tools. This WILL be an easy win for Pacquiao, he'll beat Diaz however he wants to. David Diaz doesn't do anything better than Pacquiao except maybe fight at a constant pace... But what is that going to matter when Diaz going balls out full of energy can't do as much damage as a tired, hurt Pacquiao can with a jab. It's just nonsense to suggest Diaz has a good shot, imo.
