Zahir Raheem vs Juan Diaz

stylewise, Zahir! But the fact is, Zahir doesn't belong in the professional ring! The guy is terrified of getting hit, which affects his gameplan. I mean, Zahir is one talented motherf**ker, but he fights scared!
If Zahir shows up to fight. Then he'll win by UD. If it's the Zahir that showed up against Freitas, forget about it. I hope Twan ko's his &ss -
With Juan Diaz being in the fight it actually would probably not be a boring fight. I don't think he could be in a boring fight, but fighting Raheem would be as close as you get. I think Raheem has played his way out of big fights with his last two fights being borefests. He's talented for sure, but doesn't like to take risks.Comment

If Freitas cant keep Diaz off him, then Raheem wouldnt stand a chance.
The last time I saw Raheem, he fought some real terrible bum. Raheem won, but by the stats the landed the same amount of punches, because the bum guy landed a lot to the body when Raheem tried to clinch. Juan would burst into huge 7 punch combos the second Raheem runs out of running room and tries to clinch. It would probebly be a UD for Juan.
Raheem isnt actually that good, its just that he minimizes everything that happens in the ring, so that theres little to choose from, so that it just appears that the rounds are close.Comment

I don't know, I mean Raheem managed to almost make Morales appear unwatchable. That's one hell of an achievement.With Juan Diaz being in the fight it actually would probably not be a boring fight.

Zahir seems like a decent fella, but I honestly believe he never again deserves to be in a high-profile fight, if ever again on any network.Comment

i would take diaz, because, zahir would run all night and it would be diaz making the fight.
raheem hurts my eyes when i see him fight, it's ugly and uneventful, more times than most.Comment

I pick Diaz by a late stoppage or UD, Raheem is slick but once you find your niche and land your bombs he shells up and fights a defensive fight, against a guy like Diaz who punches so precise and with such high number combos thats like like screaming "HIT ME!!" because fighting like that against him thats whats going to happen, for the most part Zahir can Box GOOD but I think the younger lion in Diaz will eventually find his niche, make his mark and neutralize Raheem's offense.. Juan Diaz by UD but if I took a gamble I would say late round stoppage. 100Comment
