http://marquezvsdiaz.info Watch Marquez vs Diaz fight videoThree-time World Champion Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero (26-1-1, 18 KOs) is one of the fight game's most popular fighters, not only for his knockout abilities and talent in the ring, but also for his devotion to his wife, Casey, during her battle with cancer. Now back on active boxing duty after an April TKO win over Roberto Arrieta, the 27-year-old is on track to regain a world title, but he must first get past veteran Joel Casamayor.Seen by most observers as the premier Cuban fighter of this era, former Olympic Gold Medalist Joel Casamayor (37-4-1, 22 KOs) still has more goals to attain before he hangs up his gloves, and that means winning a fifth world championship in a third weight class. One of the craftiest and toughest boxers in the world, the 38-year-old "El Cepillo" has won six of his last seven bouts (with his lone loss coming against Juan Manuel Marquez) and has his sights set on adding a win over Guerrero to his resume.In a 10-round lightweight bout former Two-division World Champion with four title fight victories to his name, Jorge "El Niño de Oro" Linares (28-1, 18 KOs) is the latest "Golden Boy" to make his mark in the fight game. A precise puncher with an exciting style, the 24-year-old from Barinas, Venezuela is fresh off of a win over Francisco Lorenzo in March and expects nothing less than a all out battle from Rocky Juarez in July.2000 Olympic Silver medalist Rocky Juarez (28-6-1, 20 KOs) has consistently thrilled fight fans in the nine years since his pro debut. Now the only thing the Houston native has left to achieve is winning a world title. More determined than ever to put championship gold around his waist, Juarez aims to make a statement on July 31 when he battles Linares in what is expected to be an all-action fight from start to finish.Marquez vs. Diaz II "Fight of the Year: The Rematch" is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions in association with Marquez Promotions and sponsored by Tecate and AT&T. The 12-round rematch of the "2009 Fight of the Year" is scheduled for Saturday, July 31 and will be for Marquez's Ring Magazine, WBA and WBO Lightweight World titles. The championship fight will take place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nev. and will be produced and distributed live on HBO Pay-Per-View® beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
