Bradley vs Campbell

[OumaFan]

In all fairness, and I don't like Nate that much, if he was really "seeing spots" it could possibly have been something internal. Not saying that happened, just saying I don't think there's an eye doctor on this thread and its not like its not totally out of the realm of possibility.

He did seem clearly affected by it in the round.

Or he could have read the signs and gotten the fuck out of there, I don't know. I'm willing to give a guy who's been a real fighter for a long time some benefit of the doubt. Dude has always shown toughness, Nate Campbell and the word pussy shouldn't really be used together.

To be fair though, the guy has bitched since the Diaz fight that everyone is ducking him, he doesn't get the big paydays he deserves and has claimed on many occasion that he has more heart than most fighters. You can't come out mouthing off to the media and then look for a way out when the cards are stacked. Like I said earlier, Cotto had a monster cut against Clottey and could have bitched out, but he continued on. Nate claims he's a real warrior, but real warriors don't do what he did in the ring tonight. He should've let the referee or the doctor decide.

My only two points are, one, we don't really know what was happening with him, and, two, he's shown heart and toughness over a long career. That is enough for me to give him the benefit of the doubt even though he acted questionably.

I shouldn't be defending him this much, I'm a huge fan of Juan Diaz.
