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

[Pavlik]

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 think David Diaz is much cleaner fighter than those guys.
