Manny “Pac Man” Pacquiao VS David “Dangerous” Diaz: Prediction

Manny “Pac Man” Pacquiao and David “Dangerous” Diaz will square off the Saturday at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.

We all know who Manny Pacquiao is: the kid who went to from selling cigarettes on the streets of Manila to on of the most important sports figures in the world. G Manifesto Style. Rumor has it that even rebels in the mountains of the Philippines take a break and watch his fights.

Most people don’t know who David Diaz is. Well, he is a 1996 US Olympian (and he beat Zab “Super” Judah to make the team). He also has racked up a record of 34-1.

More importantly, Diaz defeated Tijuana Legend Erik Morales and sent him into retirement.

The big question is whether or not Pacquiao, who started his career as a kid at 106 lbs, can handle the move up in weight to lightweight (135 lbs, for those of you who don’t know what time it is). Most people think the move up in weight won’t matter and Pacquiao is going to blast out Diaz.

As much as I appreciate Pacquiao’s power, speed and chin, I don’t think he is going to steamroll Diaz. In fact, I think Diaz has more than a puncher’s chance of an upset.

Diaz is tough, has a ton of heart and likes to mix it up. I also have a feeling that Pacquiao is looking past Diaz.

Still, I can’t see Pacquiao losing a decision these days. And I have a feeling he is going to win by a decent margin in a fight that should hold us over until Miguel Cotto VS Antonio Margarito.

The Rest is Up to You…
