    I think people are being harsh on Joan Guzman, forgetting the weight here for a second. He looked alot better and he fought a better fight, and that has nothing to do with the weight.

    I didn't see people giving Floyd Mayweather Jr, this much slack over his weight. Against a much smaller JMM, atleast Joan Guzman was against a guy who physically. Beats him in every department.

    Where as Floyd Mayweather Jr, had all the advantages over JMM. And i think it was more to do with a better gameplan rather than the weight. I am not saying it is right about the weight, but it's been happening quite alot recently.

    Especially in the other fight i just mentioned, and Joan Guzman should still get credit for getting back in the ring, with a guy who is a freak of nature being 6'0 Lightweight, and winning pretty convincing, and i hope to see Joan Guzman in the future.

    He has better reaction time than Funeka we knew that in the first fight. It wasn't until his nose busted up and he had a hard time breathing that he slowed down. Guzman didn't really do anything beyond what he was expected to do in the first fight. Add to that his punch output IMO was lower than it should have been. The knockdown was a good punch and he shutdown Funeka, but there was a lot of room for him to capitalize where he didn't and instead chose to taunt and pose.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Guzman moved much more in this fight and was in control the whole time. Again, for the millionth time, the busted nose and lack of recent action were big factors in the first fight, but also this time he knew what to expect.

    I think he'd beat Funeka nine times out of ten but obviously, giving up $25,000 of his purse, he (his team) made sure he would be at his strongest. And the weight takes the shine of the victory bigtime.

    the weight has a lot to do with it. he didnt have to kill himself to get to 135. he had a nine pound advantage on the scales. i dont think anybody should give him credit considering he didnt even try to make weight. he missed the contracted weight not by 1 or 2 pounds but by 9 pounds. 2 weight classes man. and the guy walks around the ring like hes the shit.

    Guzman should not be allowed to fight in any other class below welter. This weight crap with him is kinda getting ridiculous. Sorry so late to reply i just realized how far over this dude was. I look at the outcome of the fight a little different now...
