    take another tune-up,,,, possibly vs rocky juarez on shobox or FNF

    then travel across the pond to fight burns,,, you lose, its cool because you can still land a
    a omar fig fight,,

    but take the omar fig fight now, and you lose, your pretty much done,,,

    get cash and stack it

    1. juarez
    2. burns $$$$
    3. fig or possibly bigger fights if you beat burns
    You're just assuming a Burns fight is on the table for Juan? He hasn't earned that shot, since his comeback he's fought no-hopers. And he would definitely get a beatdown in that fight.

    Figueroa-Diaz is decent because we all know Figueroa is very limited but exciting, Diaz is past his prime but still good value with a name. It could sell, especially in Tx.

      Arum wants Crawford/Burns in MSG.....I don't think Hearn is too keen with it though.
      If Anything, he'll send him there... but I doubt it

        Diaz needs at least 1 more tune up.

          juan would be better served travelling to england and getting paid big$$$ to fight burns,,,,
          If Burns can't get another strap fight , he then vacate the WBO title because WBO has order #1 WBO challenger vs champion next, But if Burns can get a fight with another world champion he can avoid all this

              I am pretty confident that burns camp would jump at the chance to have juan diaz come across the pond,,,
              Yes its highly unlikely,,,

              But im assuming that i am handling diaz,, this is what my exact gameplan i would try and execute,,,

              you need to shoot high, then if you fail, you can always get the lesser fights like the omar fig,,,

              Juan diaz has a name, been a champion,,,

              Morales didnt do much to land the maidana fight, he lost but then landed a lesser fight with cano,,,

              No sense in starting off with the omar fig fight, juan diaz should tell burns he would come across the pond,, I think burns would accept

                Morales is a much bigger name than Diaz though. Even Morales had three fights before the Maidana fight. Diaz needs one more, and I think it should be someone who's a threat, maybe Molina or Quintero.

                    like i said,,,

                    juan diaz vs rocky juarez would sell pretty good in houston,,,,
                    if diaz wins that would be 3 tune-up wins and should take a big fight,,,

                    Dont take omar fig next because you lose your done,,

                    try and land vasquez, burns,, or even gamboa or crawford,,,
                    get a big fight payday,,, if you lose you can still fight the prospects like omar fig,,,

                    its simple boxing business moves..

                    Why fight a prospect, when you could get a big name for more money, you can always use your name vs a prospect, but wont land a big fight if you lose to a guy like omar fig,,,
