  • "I can easily beat Diaz" — Pacquiao

    HOW MANNY Pacquiao wished that he was the one on top of the ring Saturday night in Las Vegas and not the hapless and immobile Randy Suico who was beaten to a pulp by the rugged Mexican Juan Diaz.

    "I am not boasting but I know the way how to beat (Juan) Diaz," Pacquiao said from his hometown of General Santos City yesterday hours after viewing Suico’s disastrous showing in the World Boxing Association lightweight title match held at the MGM Grand.

    "I could beat Diaz by using lots of movement. Diaz is a perfect opponent for me," Pacquiao said, his voice sounding thrilled as though he was about to feast on a plateful of his favorite dish.

    Pacquiao said Suico’s strategy of engaging Diaz in a phone-booth warfare was costly since Diaz inflicts heavy damage inside.

    "Randy fought Diaz’s fight and he should have punched to the body more often and stayed out of Diaz’s punching range," observed Pacquiao when he caught up with a late re-run of Saturday night’s (Sunday morning) slugfest.

    "Suico did not use his reach advantage and footwork. He doesn’t even use head movement," said Pacquiao, who vowed to avenge the Cebu native’s loss although a fight between him and Diaz is not on the horizon at this point in time.

    "Someday I will fight him (Diaz) and I will beat him so we can have some sort of a revenge," added Pacquiao, who had previously sparred with Suico.

    A Pacquiao-Diaz showdown might even take place sometime next year in the event the Filipino gets past Erik "El Terrible" Morales in their rubber match on Nov. 18.

    Pacquiao’s American trainer Freddie Roach had earlier expressed belief that Pacquiao has still what it takes to win even he goes in the 135-lb division.

    Meanwhile, Pacquiao is arriving in Manila tomorrow for the final phase of his preparation for a mini-concert that will be held on Sunday afternoon.

    After spending the night at the Cardinal Santos Hospital during the weekend, Pacquiao proceeded to General Santos City on Sunday morning to be reunited with his sons Emmanuel Jr. and Michael Stephen and pregnant wife Jinkee, due for delivery in September.

    I wonder... why was team Pacman so adamant about not fighting morales at 132 if they think they can still kick ass at 135?

        Because 132 isnt a real weight. WTF, I thought this was pro boxing and not amateurs. 132 is an amateur weight. If I was Pacquiao, I woulda told Morales to take that **** to the Golden Gloves cuz their is no 132 in the pros.

            I am sure you are very well aware that fighters do happen to fight at a catchweight, especially when they are making big fights,
            so don't come up with this crap, which I do not take from someone who's well read in boxing.

                LOL **** a catch weight, if Morales wants the fight he'll take Pacquiao's demands. Thats called power and pull, something Morales is not in a position to talk about with this particular opponent. If Morales has a problem with the stipulations and rules, he can go get schooled by Raheem again for half the money. If he wants to play ball, then he needs to shut up and fight.
