Comments Thread For: Diaz: To Win World Title On Super Bowl Card Is Opportunity Of A Lifetime

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Joseph 'Jo Jo' Diaz didn't expect to wait as long as he did to get his second crack at a major title, but can certainly appreciate having to be made to work for the opportunity. Nearly two years after suffering a 12-round title fight loss to Gary Russell Jr. for his lone career defeat, the 2012 U.S. Olympian is back on the title stoppage. Four wins have paved the way for a crack at defending 130-pound titlist Tevin Farmer, with their bout as part of a loaded Super Bowl-themed show taking place January 30 in Miami, Florida, mere miles from the site of Super Bowl LIV.

Definitely the best fight on the card! Should be a classic!

Me too. Farmer looking worse and worse each time out.

I been waiting for this fight!

Hearn really screwed over Farmer.....used him as bait to try to lure Davis to dazn and then completely discarded promoting him. Farmer and DiBella are idiots for staying with Hearn. Now that Hearn saw Davis leave the division, you don’t hear him pushing Farmer at all. Now he’s playing second fiddle to youtubers

I think Farmer out boxes him

Diaz didn't look convincing in his previous fight but neither did Farmer. If I had to pick, I'd go with Farmer by UD since he is a slick fighter and could outbox Diaz, but we'll see what the outcome is. This and the Roman/Akhmadaliev are the best on the card

This is self sabotage. Stop putting underpowered fighters against one another on these big cards. No one new to the sport is going to see Farmer and think “whoa, this is exciting. Let’s see more of that!” Put some knockout artists on to grab the casuals attention. Then stick the Farmer types on said KO artists undercard in his next fight.
