Step Up

Big step up fight for Jo Jo Diaz. I think next step Errol Spence he was the best from the U.S. Olympic Team.

This will be a huge opportunity for him to showcase how talented he is and to announce his arrival in a loaded division.

Can't wait. On a side note I'm surprised Manuel Avila and Ronnie Rios didn't get this chance. But hopefully they will get a chance to showcase their talent soon on HBO.

Technically I would say he's better than Spence for sure. Diaz also has better defense.
I would rank the top 3 2012 US Olympians like this: Diaz, Spence, Ramirez.
