By Patrick Kehoe - The thing about all out boxing aggression is that it demands knowing the end result alone matters; it’s fighting with only the end game of submission, via attrition, in mind. WBC lightweight champion David Diaz, 34-1-1 (17), fights as if each round might well be his last as a title holder, such is the forthrightness of his surging, offense at all costs style. He doesn’t expect to obliterate an opponent in the first round; but, Chicago’s favorite fistic son of the moment does expect to endure to vanquish. Not blessed with the raw power hitting to settle a fight instantly, Diaz tries to embody the figure of the relentless man, the guy who will be there all night long. Erik Morales’ right hand sent that man to the canvas and yet nothing could save Morales. The hardcore Diaz has come to internalize the creed that the more one invests in the professionalism of training, the more one casts wide the net of championship glory. Punish and endure to punish, for Diaz there can be no other way. [details]

If Pac is strong at 135 I don't see Diaz winnin it, unless Pac gets ****y and tries to blow him out quickly. If he does, David's bigger and he'd have his chance to take Manny out. -
Pac will most likely win this fight and we will probably see a KO or a couple of knockdowns but it will be a uneven fight. Diaz is too slowComment

Pac is gonna win this.
No doubt David is a slugger and a relentless workhorse, but his style is exactly tailor-fit for Pacquiao. No doubt it will be a war, and no doubt the fight will go to Pac.Comment
