Manny Pacquiao-David Diaz Being Finalized

[Me La Pelan]

Diaz is a DEFAULT champ.

Yea he has the belt... But look at this guys "career"!!! he'll almost be 32. Since losing to HOLT, who is also a nobody, he's fought 9 times. Last 9 he is 8-0-1(3)ko's... ok, but his opposition has a combined record of 199-109-15. Now if you take his win over a washed up EM,(IMO, anybody could have beat @ lightweight,48-5) his oppositions record drops to ...151-104-15...WTF if he is the champ it is because there is a lack of GOOD FIGHTERS @lightweight! Diaz's career opposition record is a combined 477-394-39!!! It ain't his fault but it is what it is. A smaller PAC should SLAUGHTER diaz without a doubt!IMO

i like it

i think it's the perfect pick. Manny just fought rematch's with two hall of famers and he's stepping up in weight. diaz is the bigger man but probley not the bigger puncher. The way top rank had planned so manny should win but it should be enttertaing. Even in his lone defeat diaz put on a good show.

well from what i have seen on philippine news pacquiao is already running as of today to keep in shape and will fly back here in US to train by the end of april.

To think that Diaz is mediocre is unfair to him as he'll have the chance of a lifetime to prove he belongs in the lightweight great debate. To think manny should destroy a bigger opponent and have anything less be a failure is also unfair to him. The guy is also human and feels pain and gets tired like everyone else.

All I know is we will finally See Pacquiaos INSIDE game being put to the Test...he will have to learn to handle himself on the insde cause david diaz can fight inside.

Not necessarily. Pac's been infamous for the long 1-2, sometimes 3. Diaz's defense isnt good enough to avoid eating the left and he'll force his way inside. Pac's strategy should be to avoid being driven to the ropes and tag diaz from long range. We will probly see manny tie up when diaz gets inside. But then again we may not cuz manny hates to give a boring but smart performance.

You might be right..My dad always said "Every fighter has 2 balls and 2 fists" So yeah Diaz might win, but I live in vegas, so I'm a big numbers guy,even though they don't count all the time, for the most part they are right.

so what u think? pac or diaz?

[DiegoFuego]

I like this fight. I think we're guaranteed some solid action. Wonder if Pacman can hurt Diaz bad (I think his power carries, but we'll see)

I think PAC with a KO in under 10. I don't know what the odds are, I don't like odds on the net..because they are diferent from the odds in the casino. I was at the Red Rock last night and was too buzzed and forgot to look at the board in the Sports book. But I'll check them out tomorrow at work.
