Marquez - Diaz II Fight Thread

It’s the big fight tonight, Marquez vs Diaz 2.

Who’s your money on and why?

I can’t see past Marquez, in a repeat performance of the last bout. It’s gonna be explosive but I see a late KO.

i saw an interview of juan diaz last night and he said he was going to box more intelligently this time around and not get into any crazy exchanges with marquez. it’s hard to believe that he’ll do this for very long cause he likes to mix it up but if he does more boxing, marquez will just dissect him and win by comfortable UD. while i think diaz can hurt marquez like in their first fight, i don’t think he can KO him so i’m going with marquez by UD.

Man I want to see this fight but dont feel its worth the PPV right now as moneys tight. Both of these guys are on the downside of their careers but I think Marquez still has more left than Diaz and being the harder puncher and technician he will repeat his knockout of Diaz around the 9th again.

It’s free in the UK, shame it starts at 2am and the main event prob won’t start until 4.30am.

I feel tired already! Not sure if I’ll make it through

I’m rooting for Marquez to repeat the previous dose on Diaz.

Yes, that was a very satisfying KO

Swee-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-t !!

My heart says Marquez but we might just see him get old overnight. I remember he was behind in the scorecards in the first fight until he cut and hurt Diaz. I really think this is the best PPV event in years from the main event to the undercards it’s really stacked.

Tempted to lump some money on a JMM late stoppage but, now being 36, just wonder how much the past two fights have taken out of him? :eek:

I reckon he’ll do him earlier. :cool:

I have gone with my instinct. JMM stoppage.

£20 Double:

JMM to win by KO/TKO and Daniel Jacobs to win by KO/TKO. :-X

Drinks on Koppas tonight!

It won’t even be competitive. Diaz is shot, his punch resistance is gone, and Marquez is going to annihilate him.

It’s how Jacobs win’s I wasn’t sure about. Obviously the kid usually wins by KO but just my lucky he’ll get a decision.

£20 returns £139. Dunno what that is in $$. :wink:

I’m going to sticky this as the official fight thread.

Did you not see Diaz’ last couple of fights? He looks like he’s about 90 at this point. Fucking Paulie Malignaggi rocked him.

I actually think the main fight will be a let down, but the undercard should be great.

Linares looking sharp thus far…

I would like to see JMM fight smarter then the 1st time.
I understand he wants to give the fans their moneys worth.
I’m not saying for him to run around all I’m saying is just be a little smarter at times and not necessairly trade.

I think JMM will be smarter and will beat Diaz in a smarter fashion then he did the 1st time.

As expected Linares takes an early lead.

I cant believe this is Juarez’ 7th world title fight but he is yet to win one. How does he keep getting these undeserved opportunities when they all seem to go the same way. I thought Bruno was lucky to get a shot at Mcall after 3 unsuccessful attemts but 7?! Golden boy love making us watch good old Rocky on undercards.

Wow what a shot by Linares…
Rocky goes down.
