    Diaz was the more complete fighter in his day

      Lets see

      Julio Diaz arguably beat Shawn Porter in the first fight and gave Khan hell..he can punch, decent jab and jumps all over his opponents like a rash


      now on the other side we have Broner, a lightweight who ducked the biggest threats at lightweight and jumped up two divions to fight a over the hill boxing commentator. Then was handed a gift decision

      In his second WW fight he was brutally beaten to a pulp by Maidana

      Fact is any WW with some pop will beat Broner, any boxer who decides to jump on him like a rash. A guy who gives Porter and Khan problems >>Broner


      Broner needs to go back to lightweight and fight Gavin Reese again, thats the level of competition he belongs in with

        How Broner has fallen.

        One fight ago he was considered a top guy.

        Now he's considered worse than a passed prime Diaz

        No, but Broner. Obviously.

            Broner.. I would say. Just because he lost to Chino doesn't mean he would lose to everyone. Meanwhile Diaz has 9 losses 5 by ko. A shade over 50 percent ko ratio. Not even the same class as Maidana. In fact, I would say Khan's inability to handle Diaz is a major signifier of how a rematch with a beast mode 147 Chino would go. And don't talk about him drawing porter.. So what? Porter is a developing fighter that gets better every time out.. Khan is getting progressively worse. Maidana is the better fighter now between Himself and Khan, that's why it truly is a shame if Khan gets the Mayweather fight.

              Diaz has definitely made out to be worse than he was imo. He's a good solid fighter. That being said, he's also a fighter that Khan should have absolutely no problems with.

              The knockdown was what it was - it didn't hurt Khan that much. It is more the late rounds where Diaz was stalking and Khan was on queet street that worried me.

              But there's absolutely no question that Diaz is leagues below Broner.

                What has Broner done to prove he is above Diaz level competition?

                Broner cant handle guys who jump on him like a rash, Diaz is all wrong for Broner, he'll be on him like a rash and he can punch unlike Gavin Reese (who was taggin Broner like it was nothing)

                Broner hype train needs to stop this guy will never win a fight against a decent boxer at 140-147

                He fights like he is paralysed in the legs

                  Dude.. Mags and chino have iron chins. Broner still has pop. Diaz, a guy that's been stopped 5 times, could easily be knocked out by Broner.

                  Come back down to Earth.

                  One thing Diaz proved is KHAN doesn't have the same power at 147. He couldn't get a guy that was stopped by Juan Diaz out of there. In fact he looked in trouble.

                  You trying to dress up Julio Diaz as something more than he is is laughable.

                    1. Broner cant take punch
                    2. Broner cant move
                    3. Broner cant move
                    4. Broner cant move

                    Only reason he survived Maidana was because he faked injuires to recover his senses

                    Even Paulies punches were hurting Broner, so he restored to low blows and head butts

                    Broner is basically in a wheelchair with no wheels when he fights

                    Any 140 - 147 boxer with some decent pop will beat Broner...
