That is too funny...

[OumaFan]

Weak, I'm not sure why it is I decide to become big fans of guys that chronically underachieve outside the ring, now that James Toney's fading into retirement I've got Joan Guzman.

This could be a real disadvantage for Campbell, stating the obvious, I know. Disappointing stuff though. He was closer to the Jr. Welter limit than the LW one. He didn't even come back for the 2nd weigh-in, so who knows how much of an advantage Guzman' will have weight wise.

Mora also had trouble making weight, I wonder how much that will benefit Forrest in their rematch.

Can someone explain how it's even possible for a guy who was fighting at super bantamweight only around a year or so ago can fail to make lightweight?

An eighth and some cheetos?

He must've been complaicent in his training assuming he would make the weight easily, either than or he must've really been struggling to make the lower weights.

Well Joan can be just looking for a win not minding the belts as if he did win he would be considered as a potential matchup for a bigger name...

I don't know just thinking out loud here...

Credit Nate though for taking the fight as he could have easily turned around and said I'm not fighting. But remember when Chico (RIP) gave JLC the weight advantage? Chico got sparked out.

We'll see what happens...

He weighed 138.5 and didn't even bother to comeback to re-attempt...
Mora was 2 lbs. over but made weight in hours...

I've noticed in the presscon pics yesterday that Guzman already looked weigh drained and yet he still not able to make weight today !!!

I really hate boxers that are unprofessionals... Good that the 3 titles were not on the line anymore... Still I want Guzman to pay a lot of penalty money to Nate...

Props to Nate for agreeing for this fight to proceed... that just give me additional reasons to root for him... Hope Guzman is totally weigh drained...

[Spicoli]

All the skill in the world but comes over like an Undisciplined little fat f!!!........I hope Campbell puts a beating on him in the late rounds

[ICB]

I might actually change my pick knowing this i find it hard to believe Joan Guzman who has fought at a division as low as Super Bantamweight is over the Lightweight limit that makes me seriously question how hard he has been training for this fight and i don't know why he wouldn't have trained hard he must know Nate Campbell is very dangerous despite his age or maybe Joan Guzman might of been trying to bulk up for strength but he doesn't need to he isn't ever going to have power especially at higher weight class speed and slickness is his best asset's but this is interesting stuff and i might actually change my pick but im not sure yet i'll have to think it over some more.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Who is monitoring all of this? surely someone would have known Guzman was never going to make it 2 weeks ago? 138.5 at the weigh in? Fuck me if he wasn't 145 two weeks ago and alarm bells should have been ringing. It's bullshit and to much of this is happening(Castillo) Guzman should be out for a year for this. I hope Campbell knocks his fat ass out!

[Kev]

I like Guzman, he's not the most exciting fighter to watch but he has serious skills.

My betting is he outclasses Nate to win a close but ultimately unanimous decision.

I hope he wins, as it sets up a Paquiao, Diaz or Marquez clash down the line.

I really think Guzman is something special whilst Campbell we know exactly what he has.

Campbell won't have that worry. Guzman left his power 3 divisions down.

Is that right? If I remember correctly didn't Pac lose a title on the scales before?
