    Still no excuse.....There are many older fighters that come in and make weight......Nate had an unfair advantage in this fight.....I hope he is fined (and ali gets part of his purse) as well as losing belts....

    Funeka hydrated up to I think 149, and Nate didn`t add near as much. If your body won`t give it up, there is likely nothing more to lose for water so...

    Unless they are lying, what is he gonna do? He looked drained to me. Not sure how he found the power for that one last KD. I enjoyed the fight...and have no prob. with Nate winning it. Do feel a bit bad for Funeka, he fought well...but it was close and the scoring wasn`t terrible or anything, imo.

    i had it a draw, but i could see it easily go Campbell's way, not his best performance by any means but he fought a good fight, especially cause he looked tired from the 3rd round on

    I like Campbell and I like his explanation.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    One of HBO commentators said Nate should fight the loser of Pacquiao-Hatton. And I gotta agree.
