Sometimes i feel like posters on just started watching boxing in 2008, Not bad but at least study past fights/History, Juan Diaz went on a run at 135 that a lot of boxers wouldnt dare go through at a young age.

He beat Katsidis from Pilar to Post, if Katsidis loses to Diaz again then his career would be over right same standards. To be fair Katsidis has shown some improvements but he still cuts far to easy.

juan knows he can't hang at 140. not juan chance.

He was pouring in with his shots throughout the fight and leaning into the Marquez uppercut, which eventually finished him. Go well Juan Diaz. I hope you get your revenge.

Some people seem to think that if you aren't a consistent contender for the top ten P4P listings then your career is a failure. That's crazy. Any fighter who fights top opposition, beating some of them, and wins world championship belts doing it deserves our respect. We're supposed to be fans of boxing and boxers on here, not just fans of Ring Magazine's top ten listing. It reminds me of some of the people who criticize Ricky Hatton. Whatever you think of him, he won multiple belts, one at a higher weight, and fought some good top ten opposition. He consistently took belts off existing, established champions. I am not saying that he was the greatest ever - he patently was not - but guys like that deserve our respect as fans of the sport, or we aren't real fans of the sport, imho. Diaz is a multiple belt world champion who has fought most of the top operators in his division and done very well against them. To me that makes him a great fighter, even if there are others with an even better resume�. So give the kid a break! Not trying to offend anyone, just trying to keep some perspective.

good...no one wants to see khan fight lightweights....we would much rather prefer watchin Khan/Maidana

if you win juan thats a great call. kahn should fight all the top guys at 140.

he got rocked by feather fisted paulie at 140 and u could see the size difference. stayin at 135 is best for him but all the big fights are at 140

Good for Diaz to say no to the Khan fight and I don't see how he can be criticized? He had 3 of the 4 belts, fought some of the best the division had to offer, fought to win and was in school the entire time. I like the Baby Bull.
