    Yo, this is what Im talking about,

    the brothers are fighting in some real fights.

    This aint no cherrypicking fight this is real boxing.

    The best fighting the best.

    Why cant we see more of these type of match ups and in my opinion these are the guys who should be getting much more credit for boxing the best out there.

    Very much looking forward to this fight.

    Campbell better be in camp already, no one wants another fat Nate after the DISGRACEFUL behavior at the Funeka weigh-in. The guy never apologised for all the BS he said when Guzman failed to make weight. Karma is a *****...

    Don't rate Campbell too highly myself, I think he's something of a one-fight wonder from what I've seen of him, would be surprised if he upset the much younger Bradley.

    interesting fight but they are not even the best from each weight classes where they came from. this fight is just right because bradley could not get a shot against top jr WWs while campbell had trouble making 135 with his huge frame.

    guzman passed on to him the burger king virus. ;)

    well at least campbell had proceeded with the fight and did not pull-out just because he feel that he would lose his "0". guzman did not just ****ed himself but ****ed campbell's pay.

    I think big C will be ready, if he's not then he will be spoiling any other chance he has to make a big splash to land a mega fight in the future.

    I say Nate takes this one if he is in tip top shape because Bradley can go 12 and he will push Campbell's stamina to the limit.

    So who are the best from their weight classes then and if this is so then why is Bradley a title holder ?

    How can you say that when they've never fought each other ?

    fair enough. but sometimes you don't need to fight someone to be considered better than him. jmm hadn't fought campbell but he is widely regarded as the best lightweight. hatton has not fought bradley but is considered the best 140 before pac beat him. mosley is considered the best welter at present even if he lost to cotto a coule of years ago so you should get the drift by now.

    I hear what your saying and it is true, on paper you could say they are regarded as the best.

    Mosley has a case where he knocked out the guy who stopped Cotto but then Cotto got a close decision against him so people can definitely make a case for Mosley being the best Welterweight.

    Although I would prefer to see the guys actually fight each other before calling them the best in a division because those guys are all on the same level and JMM would give Bradley or Campbell all they could handle, the same with Pac but Pac could of fought Guzman or Campbell but chose Diaz so I dont consider him the best when he was at that weight. I would prefer for these guys to actually fight before proclaiming someone the best.

    In Hatton's case he fought some decent opponents and I give him that but he has not fought his own countryman in Witter who has been calling him out for ages and Hatton acted too big for his boots. Bradley was new on the scene so I dont blame Hatton for not fighting him but he should of fought Witter who in my opinion probably would of knocked Hatton out

    That is why I prefer the old days because if a fighter was calling you out for long enough that fight would happen, nowadays its much easier to avoid an opponent than actually fight them and all they need to do is use money as an excuse because not all fighters bring big money to the table but if you think you can pick up and easy payday then why not fight the man who is discrediting you by calling you out.
