Juan Manuel Marquez-Juan Diaz Looks Ready For 2/28

[mrpain81]

Willie Savannah, manager/trainer of former unified lightweight champion Juan Diaz, has informed krikya360.com that a fight with Juan Manuel Marquez is close to done for February 28, with HBO televising. The venue is still not finalized, but Savannah has informed me that Marquez has reportedly changed his stance on taking the fight in Diaz’s backyard of Houston, Texas. [details]

Have they agreed about the money? The money was a big part of why the fight wasn't signed and sealed yet. I'm surprised Marquez accepted to fight in Houston.

Yea I remember reading that the whole Houston thing was another hold up. Either way, I'll be glad to see it done, this is one of the best fights that can be made in the lightweight division.
