exactly, kat is a decent fighter malignaggi is a decent boxer. jmm is a elite, juan did give him a hell of a fight but by the last few rounds of their fight. JMM had seperated himself level wise from Juan and it was clear, Juan Diaz was not elite level. If probubly Diaz had spent more time in the gym then in a class room he would of gone to the championship rounds with JMM and not fall short by getting ktfo. Funny part about that is JMM actually fought Diazs fight not his and still seperated himself as the much greater fighter.
alot of that having to do with Diaz forcing him on Marquez, and it's not like he slacked off, name another fighter who has 37 pro bouts against solid opposition at only 26 years of age, the fact that he became a unified champion while being a FULL TIME student makes it that much more impressive
...And all this time I feel like I am the only one trying to give the Baby Bull his credit.
The guy is NOT a bad fighter at all and he is still young. I think he beat plenty of good fighters, and later down the road you'll see him beat even greater fighters. As opposed to fighting cream puffs (JCC Jr) or tons of journeymen with an extended Amateur career (Gamboa) he took the mans route. He fought and fought and fought got up the ranks and locked horns with guys that are trying to make a legacy as well.
Too bad he had a tough time against Malanaggi, too bad about coming up short with JMM, but he'll be back! And I, for one, will be watching.

- and I quote from some random guy on the internet
I will hate Juan Diaz until I die............that sounds menacing doesn't it?
The guy fought pro on TV on his high school prom night, he's a real fighter definitely not a part timer. It's possible to juggle both, I'm sure he gets all the same breaks other athletes at the school get. Plus, school is fckin expensive you can't just let that go to waste, if he was registered and paid then his hands were probably tied. Good for Omar Henry, school WON'T always be there I can't stress that enough or everyone would be going to school when there's nothing else.
