While I agree 100% on your view (and who wouldn't)

It can easily be countered with styles.

There is a significant gap between the style that Diaz brings and the style that PBF brings.
Unless you expect PBF to come out like Diaz.
Styles make fights, for sure.

But as a counterpuncher, I think Marquez does better against someone like Diaz who comes right at him and gives him countering opportunities, as opposed to someone like Floyd.
