Definitely a storied boxer, definitely getting out before it's too late. Respect to Campbell.

Exactly how I feel. Nate was a hell of a fighter & personally I never understood the heat he got for the Bradley fight, especially when you look at the rest of his career. He was great heart, and you just wonder how good he could have been if he'd been in the sport longer. You gotta remember that he never laced on a pair of gloves until he was 24, yet still managed to be a legitimate 135lb champ.

Hope he stays away from the ring & I'd like to see him become a commentator, it doesn't always have to be the big names (Lewis, RJJ, Tarver) & I think he'd be really good at it.
