Cmon Chuck your better than this!
What do you think Diego Corrales would to do this kid?
How about Castillo?
Hey I like Diaz too, his work rate is second to Nunn but he cant crack an egg...he fights the perfect style to have his head ripped off against either guy I mentioned.
I still wish he would cut 5 pounds and campaign as a lightweight...I think he let a possible PPV with Morales slip away...he should be screaming loud and clear for the winner of Barerra vs. Juarez (obviously hoping for MAB).
Castillo is on the way out of 135 after this fight. Diego is a threat because of his power.

Diego is more then a threat Mr. Waters, he is a guaranteed death wish for the baby bull.

I used to think Power could save fighters, but its more technique. Diego got dropped his last fight, and he isnt getting any younger.

**** Chuck, lets think about this bud cmon Chuck, ****.
Diego is p4p the biggest puncher in the sport and Baby Bull is purely an offenisve fighter.
Cuck level with me baby...do you really believe if Chico fought Diazs that Juan would win? Dont give me this bull**** of he would have a shot ro whatever...do you think he would win or not?
If I was managing Diaz I would never ever ever let him in the ring with Corrales-couldnt be a worse matchup, couldnt be.

They way Diaz looked in that last fight, I give him the edge. That may be just me, but he took a lot of good shots from Cotto. A fast fighter is a serious threat, PBF made him look silly. No diss to Diego, but his last fight he has not looked like himself. Castillo embarrased him.

He took a lot of good shots from Cotto...what kind of puncher do you think Jose Cotto is? (ANSWER:He is featherfisted)
Are you comparing Floyd Mayweather type speed to Baby Bull's speed? You better not be.
You seem like a nice guy Chuck and you have one helluva name but you couldnt be more wrong....ya know something else-we will never find out who is right because Team Diaz will never make a fight that pits their boy against chico...they care for him too much and he has too much money left to be made.

PBF is fast, but not the fastest in the game. I think Diaz's speed is comparable. If Diaz wants to get off the under-under card of a major bout, he will have to step up his comp. his age helps him too b/c he is soo young.
Left2body 05-03-2006, 11:30 AM Corrales can take a punch very well, he did get dropped by PBF 5 times but he was dehydrated and really sucked too much weight for that fight at 130lbs, looked like Cotto is looking now at 140lbs. PBF also had really good power at 130lbs.
I think if they would've fought at 135lbs instead of 130lbs that diego would've still lost but I think he would've went the distance with PBF.
Corrales also hits 50x harder than Jose Cotto does and is quicker. There is no way that Juan would KO Chico. Juan has great work rate and stamina but he is just out classed versus Chico.
I agree with the previous post that it would be interesting to see him at 130lbs if he could make that which seems possible since he isnt really that toned up, but then again it might take away from his stamina and work rate which he needs.
Anyway the King of 135lbs is either Chico or Castillo (although there is no way that Castillo fights at 135lbs after Corrales vs Castillo 3).
again, it remains to be seen. PBF is gone from the weight class, Castillo's next bout is scheduled for Nov at 140.

I'm not going to bother responding to this crap...
Let me ask you this...
Would you like to see your boy Juan Diaz vs. Diego Corrales on Showtime or would you like to see your boy Juan Diaz vs. Marco Antonio Barerra on PPV?

Dont argue with me Chuck just answer my question.

Either fight would be exciting. Now answer mine.
diaz dosent have enough power to be the best at any weight class...corrales wouldnt respect him and would KO him
Either fight would be exciting. Now answer mine.
1) If your a Diaz fan and you simply say either fight would be fine your an idiot...the kid has a real shot at beating Barerra plus it is huge money...he has no shot at beating Corrales who is tailor maded to punt him into the 4 row with a left hook.
As for your question...I think Floyd at the right weight is the fastest in the sport...at 140 or 135 I dont know who is quicker at 147 I think Judah showed he is certainly no slouch.
Calzaghe has extemely fast hands as well....Judah has fast hands and not much else etc. (Im leaving many fighters out but Floyd has to be right at the top of any argument concerning speed)
Anyone who even remotely trys to compare the speed of Juan Diaz to Floyd Mayweather...is either a texan or just plain dumb...which one are you chucky my man?

you are high. see my thoughts are, if you are in a weight class, you should be open to fight anyone in that class. regardless if its a good match up for you or not. Especially if you are a champion taking on another champion.
Zab is faster than PBF, their fight proved it. Judah is quick and powerful but just makes too many small errors that seasoned fighers will pick up on. His worst is jumping backwards with his hands down. (ala Kostya).
Floyd's strength is his ability to adjust and time his punches. As in most of his fights, he gives away rd 1 maybe rd 2 and once he has your timing down. he picks you apart. not saying he isnt fast, he definately is.
Easy-E 05-03-2006, 02:37 PM Diego is more then a threat Mr. Waters, he is a guaranteed death wish for the baby bull.
Julio Diaz is also a big threat.
mic573 05-03-2006, 02:52 PM Castillo is an absolute garaunteed loss. I think Diaz has a much better shot at beating Corrales but I don't see that happening either. Diaz gets hit alot and you can't do that against Corrales unless your last name is Castillo.
I think Diaz beats everyone else at 135 though.

This upcoming fight is Castillo's alst at 135.

Not even close.
ROSEWOOD 05-03-2006, 04:52 PM you playa I'm going run with Diaz. And he rep Htown Texas.....Yall need to keep a eye on that boy....he is the game at 135.....
keystone30pack 05-03-2006, 05:25 PM its possible that diaz ends up fighting freitas as they had tried to make a fight happen before
Undefeated 05-03-2006, 05:30 PM Diaz is not as fast as Floyd. Diaz is a good fighter. An offensive fighter yea.. But if you are going to put him in the ring with Corrales i think Diaz won't win. (When i think any fighter is just one punch away from winning a fight) But if Diaz is going to fight coming in and throw punches i don't see him surviving. Any fighter against any fighter has a chance. You just have to be patient. Let your opponent show his weakspots. I say it like it's easy but hey it's true. The human jaw is not mean't to be touched!
My opinions on who wins
Diaz Vs Corrales = If Diaz boxes i see him taking a UD. If not Corrales by KO 5th
Diaz Vs Castillo = Castillo by TKO 11th
If Castillo just LEARNS how to take a knee when he is taking alot of punishment i think this guy will kill anyone. Castillo is a threat to any fighter. He just needs to take a knee and not worry about his history of him not touching the canvas. If it was for that Castillo would'nt have some losses! Castillo could hit. He could take and he could box. ****... If Castillo were to fight Mayweather again i think he would win Again! :rolleyes: IMO he won that fight! (You know which one)
ROSEWOOD 05-03-2006, 05:39 PM dude will knock glass joe out (Corrales). Castillo on the other hand is also a killa but I think Diaz will get him too. But glass joe....hell no that dude sucks man...Pretty Boy is gone and will never return to 135 so he doesn't count.

Has Juan Diaz chin ever been checked? Cause im pretty sure Corrales will check it. Besides Corrales has been in the ring with the best already. But like i said anything could happen in the ring. But you saying Corrales sucks.. Is dumb.
ROSEWOOD 05-03-2006, 05:50 PM who has he fought??
Undefeated 05-03-2006, 05:52 PM who has he fought??
You don't watch boxing don't you? To say Corrales hasn't fought the best?
ROSEWOOD 05-03-2006, 05:54 PM yea I guess I can give him that...LOL
Azteca 05-03-2006, 05:58 PM if i was promoting juan diaz i would give him a couple years. he still is very young, he's in university, and he's a nice kid who cares about his family. heck, he's not even at his physical peak yet i wouldn't feed him to the big dogs - at least not yet.
also, diaz will always be a fighter that gets hit through his guard. he relies on a tight guard for his defence, not reflexes. he's a very offensive fighter with an amateur style that may or may not be suitable for the pro's. we shall see.
kingfreitas 05-03-2006, 07:36 PM um who has juan fought to be a champ"? absolutly no one.
2OSouzaSuarez12 05-03-2006, 07:45 PM Juan is very good, but he has fought absilutely nobody to be considered the best just yet.
Easy-E 05-03-2006, 07:47 PM you playa I'm going run with Diaz. And he rep Htown Texas.....Yall need to keep a eye on that boy....he is the game at 135.....
Keep an eye out, your right.
However, hes not even close to the best at 135.
Corrales would literally break him.
