    that is much more plausible. and again, I'm not saying Diaz would have won this fight. I am saying it makes no sense to deviate from something that is working to perfection early. Marquez could have figured him out anyway, but Diaz certainly made it easier for him by deciding he was a boxer all of a sudden.

    I don't remember what Diaz said in the post fight, but if he said the body shots slowed him down, then I'll give up the argument. I know Marquez said the body shots made the difference and that's why everyone on here is saying that, but I'd like to hear from Diaz.

      well, when you have a guy almost down in the 2nd round, I know you don't come out boxing in the next round. you don't want to overextend yourself, true, but you don't just quit with the pressure. that 3rd round is what is truly inexplicable, but in that round Shields clearly asked for a boxing round.

      I used to like Shields, but man that is some bad corner work

        Because he realized that they both Mexicans and they should not be fighting each other.....

            again, I'm talking about before the cut. If anything, the cut made him fight a great round 9 until he got caught.
