    This guy fought his ass off against Campbell and hasn't been heard from sice. The guy is an exciting fighter who will give anyone at 135 hell.

    Who wants to fight Guzman after all the **** Guzmans put fighters through, cancelling at the last minute and not fighting, not making weight etc. I dont blame Funeka for turning it down. People cant take Guzman seriously

    maybe this story is unfounded and is a worthless soundbite from Guzman's management or something of the sort

    I actually think Funeka's style is the ideal one to beat a slick boxer like Guzman. He has an insane wingspan and he throws a lot of punches. One can definitely argue he beat Campbell.

    Maybe he heard BAD was bidding for it, and didn't want Lennox butchering his name again.

    Lmao @ some here still blaming Guzman for the cancel, not fighting and blah blah blah. People here don't get it. They think it's always fighters fault for not wanting a fight. Guzman has always wanted to fight the best. It's not his fault that Diaz, Katsidis, Bradley and Now Funeka didn't happen. It's HIS FREAKING MANAGERS AND PROMOTERS!! **** man for real you people need to wake up. The only thing i blame Guzman is not making the weight vs Campbell but if i remember correctly Campbell did the same thing but nobody bash Campbell.
