Southpaw welterweight contender Felix Diaz bounced back with an impressive win at the weekend following a close majority decision loss to Lamont Peterson last October.
Felix Diaz (18-1-8KO) is rated by many within boxing as an outstanding talent from the Dominican Republic and certainly has all the skills to become a world champion.
Following a solid unanimous points decision win at the weekend (on Deontay Wilder’s undercard) over the much heralded Sammy Vasquez, Diaz when speaking with his trainer afterwards backstage said they are ready for anyone at super-lightweight or welterweight.
Indeed, two divisions packed with talent at the moment – Diaz looks set to become another shark in the mix at the top of these weight classes’ rankings in the coming years.
