If Pac fought Juan Diaz instead of David Diaz in his first and only LW fight?...

[Kevin Jesus]

Yikes. I meant to say Juan Diaz is a better fighter than Hatton.

I agree, I'd like to see that match-up(Hatton vs Juan Diaz).

[WhoreUs]

pacquiao by early to mid round ko.

if diaz charges pac like he did jmm, diaz gets crushed same as hatton

David Diaz is one tough cookie. Marquez would have a tough time with him.

Remember David Diaz knocked out Jose Armando Santa Cruz who in turn was robbed of a championship belt by Joel Casamayor (HBO scored it 118-109 for Santa Cruz; Casamayor was booed by fans), who in turn gave Marquez a close fight before getting KO'd in the stretch.

Pacquiao would have won but it would have been a tough fight because it would have been his first fight above 130 pounds against a guy who has good speed, good footwork, uses his weight, Diaz would have given Pacquiao all he could handle for a few rounds IMO.

Yeah, i pretty much go with this. Diaz would close him down real nice for a little bit, once he gets hit, fight is done.

Who's the Pac hater that choose Pac looses?

Styles make fight man. Marquez could have ot on his bike, but what for? he is a counterpuncher, and was doing great work off the ropes. He did get the job done didn't he?

Marquez got hit with junk by Diaz while he was on the rope and Diaz's punches rocked him at times. FACT.. Yes Marquez adjusted like a top fighter should but again, Juan Diaz? Seriously Campbell the veteran gave Diaz all he can handle what more a top fighter like Marquez. Marquez was suppose to win.

if he goes toe to toe with pac, it would be a one minute ppv. but if he turtles up like david diaz, it would be a bit longer

[One - Shot]

if that fight happens Juan diaz is dead right now

Before the Hatton fight I might have said that Diaz would have won, but now I'm not necessarily sure. I doubt that it'd have been a one-sided blowout, but I could see it ending in a Pacquiao TKO or something. It's too bad that Arum threw Pacquiao in with David Diaz though because talk about a punching bag.
