Juan Diaz is not overrated, he may be by some, but he is probably the best LW in the world now that Marquez and Campbell are not longer there. However he is elite at 135, but not at 140. In fact I think he should loose some flab and go down to 130. Honestly the beating and KO loss he took from Marquez may have damaged him, he also fights very badly when cuts. I disagree with a lot of what you have to say TS, but I do agree that if you give him angles, and smother his workrate he can be beaten very easily. I also think Malignaggi clearly beat him.
Also Berto is gabage and would lose to any top 5 WWs including Quintana.
Fair enough...I agree with the bolded...
P.S. Berto would beat Quintana...I hope it happens bully so I can take some of your points
The cut didn't happen until the mid rounds but I give him credit he has heart but I don't see what's special about the guy. No question he's a good fighter. But some have him on Marquez's resume like its a GREAT win...
Maybe you could argue about Freitas being faded but c'mon Katsidis is decent at best...defense isn't in his vocabulary...
For a lightweight, he has above average strength, output, chin, and defense. Without mentioning the insane pressure he puts on. He is a great win for JMM, would you consider Vargas a great win for De La Hoya or Trinidad? How about Pavlik for Hopkins?

Pavlik at the most a very good win...due to the fact that Bernard was 44...although he made Pavlik jump up in weight...
Vargas a very good win...that was the last meaningful win Oscar has had...along with Trinidad
