New Juan "Baby Bull' Diaz Interview

New Juan "Baby Bull' Diaz Interview MA: Bring us up to speed on what you have been doing since your last fight? Well I have been contemplating a lot on what my next event is, as far as boxing is concerned, especially lately. Because I know the year is almost up, it’s time for me to make some serious decisions, and I am definitely going do it because I have been doing a lot of business with the construction industry. My brother and I have a construction company here in Houston, and it’s been going extremely well and, at the same time, I have been studying for the LSAT. You know, I have been giving myself an opportunity to do different things outside of boxing. I really enjoy everything that I am doing and I am taking the LSAT test to get into law school December 11th and my whole plan is to get accepted into law school. And I think that once I am successful doing that at the end of December that is when I am really going to know what you know what I am going do, whether I am going pursue my law degree and dedicate myself 100 percent or do I feel like I need to fight again just to you know just to ah (inaudible) …I mean it’s still inside of me but I don’t know if it’s worth it anymore. MA: Like they say: Fighting careers are shorter and law would definitely last longer. Yeah, especially seeing the fight between Michael Katsidis and Juan Manuel Marquez…it was a great fight. I got to give it up to both those guys but, at the same time, you know I wish I was in there, but I also know that everything that I am doing outside of the ring I am being pretty successful at it, so I am being successful, making money without getting beat up. MA: (Laughter) Yeah, I wanted to ask you if you have any pre-fight rituals before you go out into the ring. Well, not rituals per say, but I guess I…it’s not even a superstition, I don’t know…I guess more for good luck, I started doing it a few fights ago. What you know, I lace up my shoes, my boots, my boxing boots and for some reason I always skip the second to last belt. Also when you tie in, where you lace them up and the last two, I mean the second one before the last two, I skip it and I jump into the last two holes and I lace them up. For some reason I don’t do that with tennis shoes or my sneakers…none of that, but when I am boxing, especially for a fight, I skip those two for some reason. continued here : ringsidereport.com
