I've been watching both these guys, twice I've seen them both live, obviously Diaz as the undercard to Verdejo, but honestly, he's been looking more fundamentally structured than Verdejo these days. He's more accurate, diverse I feel, and been showing explosive power lately.
Verdejo has some nice athleticism to him, but I feel if you take that away from him, he might not have as much going for him... yet. Although he's still very green and ways to go, but between the two, at identical areas, I feel Chris Diaz may be the more talented fighter.
