    It was a headbutt period! Whether or not nate was looking for a way out is irrelevant

    Yes because you know for sure that Campbell had spots in his eye. How can you judge Campbell on three rounds when he is a slow starter?

    Nate probably bought himself at least one more big fight with this whole drama.

    If he'd fought on blind in one eye and lost a wide UD, he'd probably be lucky to wind up on FNF. Instead, he's at the center of a great big controversy and has Don King taking his side to make a rematch.

    You tell me what the smarter move was.

    Tim has a Holyfield-type of a head. Nate, instead of whining should have done a Tyson maneuver, threatening to bite his ear off.

    Poor night for champs

    The cut is from a headbutt... Campbell can't see clearly from that eye... It's less than 4 rounds... So Campbell deserves a NO CONTEST...

    Campbell doesn't deserve a TKO or RTD loss in his record for this Bradley fight...

    The sad part is Campbell will still get a big fight after quitting and Bradley will be given the cold shoulder.

    I can see Khan and Berto giving Nate a shot at their belts.

    Bradley should not be rewarded for heat butting. The rules should be followed.

    I don't care if Campbell and Bradley will have a rematch or not... or who they will be fighting next... What I care is Campbell should not have that TKO/RTD loss in his last fight... Hope the California commission will overrule it as a NO CONTEST...

    Yeah they ruled a no-contest for the Toney-Rahman fight, which was clearly a cut caused by a punch. In this fight a massive cut was caused by a head butt, this needs to be overturned.

    Nate Campbell is no quitter, **** what Bradley or Gary Shaw says. If there was no massive cut Campbell would of went the full 12 rounds. Rules are rules, Campbell had problem seeing because of the cut in his eye and it was before the end of the 4th round, it should be ruled a no-contest.

    You stupid ****, if an accidental head butt happens before the end of the 4th round and the fighter has problems seeing because of an ACCIDENTAL head butt, it is ruled a no-contest. Did you see how bad the cut was? There was no irritation because it wasn't bleeding furiously, but had the fight went on it would of caused irritation. Just ask Cotto or Pacquiao how irritating cuts are.

    The headbutt, cut, blood affects the vision on that left eye... Blood from that diagonal cut will flow to the eye...

    Campbell don't need to wait for that cut to bleed profusely... It's from a headbutt and he has the right to complain...

    The impact of the headbutt already affected Nate's vision... There could be injury inside the eyelids... Add a flowing blood and it's a total mess on that left eye...
