additionally, i think diaz will run into problems if he opens up like that against someone with some power behind his punches...[/QUOTE]

Freitas has got alot of power,Diaz took them and ran back at him like a pitbull

I am sure your experience in many pro fights puts you in the position of calling a professional boxer a *****.

I know that if I was in his position I wouldn't give up like a *****. I'd be knocked out if I couldn't win. He didn't even give the fans what they wanted. A knockout, he cheated diaz in the pleasure of knocking his ass out.

Additionally, the Mayweather / De La Hoya interview was pretty tame. Both guys had their nice faces on (although, in fairness, De La Hoya trying to be mean is usually high on the unintentional comedy scale, so maybe it was for the best)

Yeah, he left welts all over diaz's face and diaz still came forward. Which means frietas hurt the bull, but the bull will hurt you if you hurt the bull. And came back and ****ed frietas up. And frietas quits in his corner shows he had no heart.

I had a feeling going into this fight Diaz's pressure would wear down Popo and it did. Freitas came out strong outboxing Diaz and doing the best work when they were toe to toe. Then in the fifth when Freitas was stunned the fight completely changed. After that Diaz dominted with pressure and more pressure and Freitas had a look of resignation on his face. He had been in that position once before and felt comfortable with it. Freitas is a good example of what happens to certain boxers when they gain fame and money. They don't have that passion anymore.

Did not see the first 5 rounds, but Diaz is impressive. But i am not sold out yet on him. Its a great win over Freitas, but Freitas battle against Barrios and Corrales has taken a toll on him. The quitting part is not a suprise cuz he did it before.

he lacked the eye of the tiger

After the first rounds Juan followed my instructions, keep that shoulder in his chest and just let lose, and dont let Freitas get set to punch. When Freitas was able to set himself he landed some big shots, Juan just had the chin & will to withstand them. Fun fight to watch,
