Humberto Soto - David Diaz on the Pacquiao - Clottey undercard

[Gandalf]

When all is said and done, it is quite scary to think that David Diaz lasted almost as long as Cotto did against Pac. I have done my share of berating Diaz, but he deserved a little more respect than that. He's always had a pretty good beard even if he is limited in almost all other areas. Maybe that was before Pac had learned to juice properly, who knows. It's strange how Pac has mutated since Marquez 2....I digress.

The undercard has some names on it for sure. I have absolutely no desire to see Margarito back in the ring though. Hopefully the audience will take bricks with them and throw them at his head. That'll teach him a lot more than a temporary ban, the man should be up for attempted manslaughter.

Soto has been looking weighty and a bit winded in spots...he can be boxed and way to uppercut happy.Diaz cannot box or move worth his weight,soaks up punches like a bukkake star and best chance is getting Soto to over sell on his offense,stand in front to long.Even then I dont see him hurting Soto.Diaz frankly lucky to have the opportunity.

According to Bernstein. It's the technique.

"It was not power that made the difference. The difference was speed, ring generalship, combination punching, and a vastly improved defense.” -Al Bernstein
