Holy shite, that's completely ridiculous, wow. I don't know whether it's more likely that he just doesn't give a damn and is here for the cashout, or he has in fact trained hard with every intention of weighing in so much heavier and using it to his advantage. Either way it's appaling and cringeworthy, ideally Funeka would get paid without having to step into the ring, but obviously that wasn't going to happen. You've got to feel for the guy here, he doesn't have the name and needs this fight to further establish himself, but Guzman is royally screwing him over even if he's only looking to get paid. Funeka has one of the biggest frames I've ever seen on a lightweight, it looks like he hasn't eaten in weeks... And what if Joan is indeed the fresher fighter and pulls it out this time? He doesn't deserve to fight anyone worth a dime ever again, a 3rd fight would be a further embaressment. What the hell went on in Guzmans camp is the other thing I'm wondering? Lee Beard has basically disgraced himself entirely as well, who the hell is going to work with either of these guys again?
