Manny Pacquiao is Not Taking Diaz Lightly

[dmendoz6]

Well said I thought I was the only one who took notice of that especially joan guzmon, I think he has what it take to easily bewilder pacman. Am I the only that sees that pacman is always off balance when he punches? I mean I like the guy, real good or maybe even great fighter but the best, not quite IMO.

Diaz struggled with a well passed his prime Morales. Manny hits harder than Morales, who was able to floor Diaz. I think Manny can safely look past Diaz.

Manny is taking David Diaz lightly. Why? Cuz Pac just accepted an invitation to go to China for the Olympics(some kind of pre cermony or something). This means Pac will not traing for 8 weeks(as he said). It seems he did not change at all.

I am rooting for Pac but since his moving up in weight and training less than 8 weeks, i can see Diaz KO'ing Pacquiao. I hope i am wrong.

Diaz will come to fight and I don't think it will be easy for Pac, but Pac is one of those guys that you may question his focus some times, but when he gets in the ring it's all business. I suspect the same thing will happen when he fights Diaz.

PAC never fought a boxer like Diaz before...a southpaw who constantly applies pressure and is way bigger than him.
It ain't gonna be an easy fight for PAC.

About your sig, Linares, Team Pacquiao stopped using him as a sparring partner because they might see him as a future opponent of Pacquiao.

Cool. Linares is gonna have to win some big fights in the future to probably get that chance and move up in weight. He has the talent to beat some good opponents though and I would love to see him and Pac fight in the future. I don't know though since Pac might be retired by the time Linares becomes a big name.

Props to Pacman for fighting three months after such a huge fight. That seems like a rarity these days. I hate when guys fight once every 6-7 months. In fact it seems like Top Rank is picking up on this because Pavlik and Cotto are doing it too.

Anyway, this is Pac's showcase. Part of me suspects Diaz may be more game than most think, but I also think this will be the best Pacquiao we've ever seen.
