    Guzman will win the fight, but lose the title on the scales. I love Guzman's style and I had really high hopes for him, but if he actually goes through with this and makes weight, I'll be shocked.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I've said this before, but I feel Guzman will end up becoming just another in the long line of boxing "what if's..." All the skill in the world but he just can't seem to put everything together. He could have been widely considered one of boxing's finest fighters by now.

    I think he's already reached that stage.

    At his age, with his apparent lack of dedication, there's far more chance he'll get beaten, by a fighter way below his talent level, than do great things. Which is a shame.

    No argument here. The Campbell fight could've been his last chance. I'd love to see Funeka lay him out.

    good fight. this is what guzman should have done before, fight top contenders. i favor the lanky funeka on the strength of his destruction win over another slick boxer in zahir raheem. imo funeka will have no problem with the slick style of guzman.

    That's possible Fenster but if he comes out and does to Funeka what he is capable of doing, Guzman can be a top guy at 135.

    Solid fight and for Guzman sake its time to get back at it and not let it pass him by....I'm not sure Funeka has the beard to press forward and he should use that mantis range and outside ability...close wise,Guzmans hiatus,etc.If he can get Guzman to step forward maybe half the time,I go with Funeka by a few.

    Oh yeah he was beating Raheem who was slick, that knockout came after the bell though but I didn't see the fight changing. But I don't see that happening to Guzman

    Blimey, hope not. That would be a travesty.

    I think Guzman can beat Fuenka no problem. I'd still back Guzman against ANYONE until he's beaten. Just saying the way his career has gone it wouldn't be a surprise if he turns up soon looking old, and never lands a marquee fight.

    If Guzman doesn't fuck up somehow with this fight, either not make the weight or not be anywhere near what he can be in the ring, he'll fuck the next fight up. There's something missing in his mental makeup.
