Marquez-Diaz 2 Tonight! On HBO PPV!

By George Cotton Jr

In what should be a great fight, Lightweight Champion Juan Manuel Marquez takes on Juan "The Baby Bull" Diaz in a rematch tonight on HBO PPV(7PM ET). Unless you were living in a cave or something you already know about the first war these two engaged in which was named Fight Of The Year. Now Diaz the former Champion comes in as the underdog against the future hall of famer Marquez. The stakes couldn't be greater for both fighters as a win catapults them to bigger fights down the road. Marquez has been mentioned as a possible future opponent for British sensation and 140 lb Champ Amir Khan. A win for Diaz means future paydays as well as being recognized once more as a Champion of the Division he once ruled. What also makes this fight great is the loaded undercard, something that has been missing from the sport as of late. For starters fans get to watch perennial contender Rocky Juarez take on former titleholder Jorge Linares in a crossroads matchup. Then that is followed up by a great matchup between two former champions as Joel Casamayor takes on Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero. Undefeated Danny Jacobs is also featured as he attempts to go from prospect to Champion as he takes on the rugged Dmitry Pirog for a vacant Middleweight Title. Not to mention HBO is even throwing in a freebie as you can watch the hard hitting Sakio Bika take on Jean Paul Mendy...FOR FREE! This is gonna be a great night for fight fans, so crack open the cold ones and enjoy......I know I will.
