Controversial light welter showdown between Juan Diaz and Paul Malignaggi

Its good to see you get a guy who is in top 10 featherweights of all time.

I just saw that Vic Darchinyan is also ranked in the top 10 bantamweights of all time but no one seems to have mentioned it. Remember boys Vic is a six time world champ and has been a undisputed one at that , Fenech is 3 time world champ and gets all the reconigtion.

Maybe Vic should steal a couple of watches, get his house involved in a drive by and then get himself into a streetside domestic to get recognised. Oh the favouritism.

Vic does deserve a lot more recognition than he recieves. 100% more..

Chris John seems to be 'the forgotten soldier' also.

I guess its a matter of public perception for most cases relating to Title credibilty and appreciation.

For the record SL we made special mention of Vic's inclusion in the all time top 10 and have 2 big specials in the pipes for the next few months involving Vic and Kostya (who would have made the top 10 if the voting was not restricted to the original Lonsdale weights).

Since we started the show Vic has been our second most prolific guest behind Lovemore and his extraordinary achievements have been noted and celebrated by all of our team.

In my experience a fighter is never truly celebrated while their career is still in progress and the "Worlds Greatest ever" voters are to be commended for recognising Vic's achievements.

He said the extra months to prepare Tua have been beneficial and that conditioner Adam Parore has David is in the best shape he has been in for a long time.
