Diaz collapsed in his corner before the 11th round of his fight with Delvin Rodriguez on July 16. After numerous medical procedures, he went into a coma and awoke in September.
The recovery process is long from over. Dr. David Jimenez, the boxer's chief neurosurgeon, told the San Antonio Express-News that Diaz entered a local rehabilitation facility.
He told the paper that Diaz can sit up in a chair, respond to commands and smiles when someone tells a joke. The doctor said he was optimistic that Diaz would be able to walk and talk again.
