Sure Ali is quality but he is not Hall of Fame material, which is exactly what he's up against on Saturday. Unfortunate mismatch. It's time for Funeka fans to stand up and be humiliated. Ali will not land more than 4 or 5 clean blows in any single round. He will be peppered at will and overwhelmed. Can't wait.
I'm giving Funeka a little more of a chance than that. He's a well schooled fighter, the thing is this fight against Guzman is the first fight since his hardest loss, against Campbell. If he comes in focused really wanting it and not doubting himself from the Campbell fight, then it's going to be a good one! I believe this is going to be the first time both Joan and Ali fight at lightweight, that shouldn't make a differance to either. I'm actual looking forward to this fight, a little more than the Bute vs Andrade.
I actually pick Funeka to defeat Guzrun. Funeka can handle slick boxers like how he handled Zahir Raheem and Campbell. His longer reach and bigger size will give Guzrun problems.
We'll see this weekend. Nate is generally considered a slick boxer. He's hard to hit too. This is Guzrun second fight at LW. Funeka been at LW for 3 years already.
ok, now both of you fans sit back down. just kidding, funeka fought well against nate. if joan is half the better he normally is though at lightweight, ali is proper ****ed
I like Funeka and thought he gave Campbell hell. I'm glad he's getting another shot on the big stage.
