At the height of his abilities, at 140, Diaz was a force to be reckon with. His fight with Mickey Ward is a lost classic that showed his durability and exceptional ability to fight inside. However, he was never a speed demon, and although he had power, he was no Kostya Tszyu in that department. It wasn't until Diaz made the move to 147 that he began to break down and lose fights. Zab too was at his best at 140, and in addition to blazing hand-speed, a south-paw stance, he had incredible one punch power. Who do you think wins this fight?
I know its fashionable to pick fuckin everybody over Zab nowadays, but realistically he'd have beaten Diaz. Diaz was beaten, yet given a gift against Omar Weis, and given hell but Emanuel Augustus. I dont think he'd have been able to cope with Zab's speed.
I would reluctantly have to pick judah here, although it should be noted in the interest of full disclosure that he is a scrub and a pussy
I honestly don't know. I'll say that if Judah doesn't stop him early he'll lose confidence as Diaz sticks around and keeps hitting him. Diaz by SD.
