Joan Guzman vs Ali Funeka 2 Spoilers.

[Jimmy G-Force]

I know that Guzman's manager was trying to lay blame on Lee Beard for the weight, but Lee in turn had left the weight issue in the hands of Kerry Kayes. Kerry had said that he would be able to get the weight off. I think there came a point where Joan just basically gave up trying to lose the weight, knowing he couldnt shift it.

I know Guzman was very happy the way Lee had trained him. He also said that Lee was responsible for making him plant his feet and throw his shots with power which is something they had worked on. Guzman admitted that previously he'd been guilty of slapping a bit with his punches in fear he would damage his brittle hands. I'd expect to see Guzman stay with Lee after this fight, because overall he was very happy technique wise with what Lee had shown him.

Well in that case all 3 of those guys take a hit. Tactics aside, that was the most unprofessional BS of all time right there and the accountability falls on the fighter and the trainer.

What if Funeka was allowed to weigh the same? How different would it have been? It's bullshit and you can go back in time and see I'm a big fan of Guzman but holy shit, 9 pounds!!!!! That's not heavyweights or even cruiserweights it's lightweight! How can anyone say people are being to harsh? The fight result shouldn't even count.
