How EXACTLY was David Diaz a tune-up for Pacman

[madsweeney]

king flawless and goblin are two of the dumbess haters i have ever seen in my life. I am a hater but im not as dumb as these two- its very upsetting because they will never get a credit for writing BS comments.If you want to convince at least try a bit harder cuz i dont think nobody is buying this crap.

-Believe me or not prior to De la hoya (weigh drained or not) it was actually more riskier going 2 more division after weighin in at 135 diaz and 130 with marquez w/in the same year. 140 wtf nate campbell? LOL that idiot who tried to showboat and got ktfo. What did he do really? He just lost to lorenzo, casamayor, peden at that time. O.o

Thank you! green K given for putting bias aside.

People claim David "bum" Diaz was a tune up for Pacman at 135. If Diaz was a tune-up, that would suggest Pacman was planning to fight someone else at 135.

But Pacman never did. He had the chance to fight Guzman or Campbell. Pacman was dead scared of these guys.

Pacman ducked 140 and 135, to fight weight drained Oscar. Simply, there were 3 slick boxers who would have schooled him. Guzman,Campbell and Bradley.

Bob Arum fighter.

How did he duck people at 140?

He faced Hatton, who was then Ring Champion and considered the best LWW in the world. And had been top of the division for years.

Regardless of what people think of him now; before that fight Hatton was considered was the best at 140 and the only person was considered to be as good as or better as him was Pacquiao himself.

In fact if Pacman had fought anyone else at 140 he was have been accused of ducking Hatton, the champion of the division for a few years.

Interesting how the "best weight" discussion is invoked for Hatton, but conveniently omitted for Oscar.

With all due respect, sir, I would say that Hatton @ 147 >> Oscar @ 147 (or whatever DLH was that night). No offense.

Yea cause oscar wasn't shot to **** when he fought floyd. Steve ****in forbes busted oscar's face up floyd didnt even lay a single mark. Oh i forgot about the gloves and the weight booo hooo.

Oscar offered the fight and chased it. He gave so much away because he was getting called a bully etc...

Pac did smart business and the blame is nto on him.

Yep, those 4 pounds took a massive toll on Oscar. When he went from 150 to 147, he was literally dead

[MindBat]

Floyd fought Oscar and took his WBC belt at 154.

you would have to be downright ****** to fight Guzman or Campbell over Oscar.

How about picking Juarez over Guzman (JMM) or Arum/ Pacquiao's plans of facing Soto after Guzman badly outclassed him? There is some truth behind alot of this.
