Interesting: Rolando Reyes vs Juan Diaz

**brptrojan** · 05-31-2009 01:34 AM

when I was younger, a coach by the name of Ruben Juarez trained me in Ventura CA. He was the alternative for the olympics for De la Hoya.

Anyway, he had some hardship in his younger years (no need to mention) and there was this 14 years kid who was really good. His name was Rolando Reyes. 16 years later I was at the fights here in Austin for the Lightweight Lightning with Valero, chavez, hernandez etc.... and I saw the both of them again not know who Rolando Reyes's name.

It was like going through a quantum leap.

Well he knocked out Julio Diaz and now he's scheduled to fight Juan Diaz aug. 22nd. With out bias, I think Rolando Reyes is going to give him troubles. he has good footwork and great counterpunching.

Any thoughts?
