    very dangerous and very hungry fighter. Gave a prime El Cepillo a tough fight and gave Kid Diamond a beating and a lesson about what its like to step in with a top tier fighter. Wouldn't count him out against any current and 'legit' lightweight.

    I wold favor Campbell over anyone at 135 except Casa. A prime Campbell is a kinda of hard one because IMO even though he's not at his physical prime in age his boxing has never been better even at his current age.

    At his best, I'd pick him confidently over anyone at LW. Nobody tends to agree with me however.:think

    At his best, nobody would be a sure thing over Nate. I'd like to see him and Katsidis go at it.

    Katsidis seems to cut too easily, that last B- level guy gave him hell. Nate would probably end him before the 5th.

    Why?

    Julio doesn't react well to pressure and Nate has KO power. J. Diaz doesn't so Julio vs. Juan will be a good fight potentially.

    Juan will have issue's with Nate's speed and body work and I think Nate will back him up and beat him on the inside. Juan Diaz is overrated to an immense degree at the moment. Campbell's chin is not rock solid, but he can handle Juan and Julio's shots.

    I disagree...I think Juan Diaz is improving fight after fight...that includes his power...I was very impressed when he fought Freitas...and I think Diaz definitley seems like a tough young man in there...
