    I'm agreeing with you, I thought Paulie won the fight.

    I don't agree that Diaz is overrated though. He's a damn good fighter who lost a close decision but was given a gift.

      Good fighter? Yes

      Elite? No

      Ignore the titles and look at the names of the opponents...cuz when it all comes down to it, its about who you beat...which is why Floyd's resume is weak ATG wise...and that's comin from one of his fans

        one dimensional fighters can be elite , bud.

        you guys always think boxing skills are everything. it is NOT.

        heart , chin , stamina , toughness , durability , power , etc. matters a lot in boxing.

        he is what he is. he's a pressure fighter because that's what is best for him.

          Whats the criteria for elite?

          Everyone has a different definition there's no point in arguing it.

            You went from sounding like a hating ass ***** to being one . Only a hating ass ***** (like you) would diminish and downgrade another man's accomplishments.

            The type of **** you're doing can be applied to every fighter. Leonard lost to a Duran coming up 2 divisions. Hopkins lost to Jermain 'Gasses Out' Taylor twice. Berto got a gift against Collazo (only a matter of time you're doing this to him).

            Marquez is a first ballot Hall Of Famer and Diaz took him to hell and back in the leading FOTY candidate for 09. How embarrassing huh.

              Juan Diaz is only overrated by the people who overrate him.

                His stamina has been questioned against opponents who stand up to him...he seemed to fade against Marquez...

                I guess we gotta disagree cuz I think he's a good figher but not elite...

                  The right person won.. It just so happened there was a bad card....

                  And people are too persuaded by Malignaggi's slick talking...

                  Juan won the fight.... Did he win it 118-110, HELL NO... But he DID WIN THE FIGHT...
                  No he didnt, no ****ing way. I gave every close round to Juan Diaz even one or two where Paulie probably won and I still had him losing. Juan got outboxed and outworked.

                      Well I actually like Berto...but wat did I say that was hating?

                      Didn't Marquez bloody and knock him out...and didn't Campbell beat his ass?
