Woah Diaz is supremely overrated.

He literally came forward the whole fight and didn't even get Russel to fight in 2nd gear. He let him coast to a decision.... He let Diaz's jab completely ruin him.

Diaz is way overrated.

To be honest I don't think any fighter besides Loma at that weight will look good fighting against Russell.
Russell has speed, stamina, and great angles and he'll make any fighter look confused at that weight.
I was taking Diaz so no shame in losing to Russell. He did the best he could but Russell is a beast!

Russell vs Santa Cruz next please

Russell is very good. I just dont see anyone at that weight bearing him. Hes too active. Reminds me of a more athletic Johnny Tapia. Dude just throws combos nonstop.
