Marquez: Diaz Fight Will be “Complicated” and “Violent”

[v.cassiusali@ya]

i know both fighters have different gameplan. maybe marquez will try to box diaz outside where he can use his ever-deadly counterpunching power, use his jab to keep the younger juan at bay and lunge his deadly right straight. if marquez can stick to his gameplan, most likely he will have his hands raise.

diaz, as a younger fighter will unload volume of punches to wear down the aging marquez. if diaz will continuously hit marquez with his power body punches, marquez will slow down maybe in round 9 to 10. if that happens, juan's will have the upperhand.

it will be a great fight.

Funny, Arum and Shauffer just realized building a local fighter can bring in a lot of money? Bull****, they knew this all along. Mayweather, Jones Jr., Gatti used to sell out in there hometowns but Vegas just offers more pocket money even though at time there might have been less people attend there fights.

Going to be a hell of a fight. Im going agianst Marquez and got Diaz on this one.

Very evenly matched. It goes to show that Nate Campbell is better than both of them since we already know he's superior to Diaz. It's just too bad he can't make the weight anymore.

Marquez would whoop that gorillas a$$.

If he means 'complicated' as in 'not easy,' ok. Otherwise I ain't sure what that woulda meant. But I know it'll be violent. I'm psyched for it. Good nite of drinkin and boxing.

I have no idea who's going to win this. Man this is going to be a war.

After rewatching the Casamayor fight JMM was slower than at 130 and he was getting hit al ot by a defensive minded fighter like Casamayor. I think father time is catching to him. I see Diaz stoping JMM due accumulation of punishment or cuts. His offensive arsenal is very good, altough he doesnt have that much power!!!!!!!!

100% agree with that. Im glad I wasnt the only one that noticed Marquez's slow start at 135. Diaz is a bull who will keep coming and if he lands one clean one, Marquez is will be hurt. Im pulling for Diaz..

JMM is obviously not takin' JD lightly. He is a master. Unless he gets old suddenly on this night it will be Marquez by clear UD or even stoppage.


I got 10k points on JMM even money, if anybody wants the bet.

Entertaining fight which could go either way. There wont be a knock out, so I like Diaz by SD because hes fighting at home. Crowd will influence the judges.

For the 100th time, I got Marquez by mercy stoppage around 9 or 10. I think he is just that much better then Diaz, and that Diaz being a light punching volume puncher plays right into Marquez amazing counter punching skills.
