    Guzman was 138,5 pounds in the weight-in. Campell was 135. How will the effect the fight?

    I originally picked Campell, but now I think that Guzman will be strong enough to KO him. Ala Castillo vs. Corrales 2 ;)

    We don't know what bull**** Guzman may have done during those two hours. Maybe he was killing himself trying to lose the weight and only got down 2 pounds and gave up frustrated, and stressed himself the **** out. Maybe this situation will **** with his head tonight. He cost himself a chance at a stack of belts. That ****'s distracting.

    Belts don´t mean ****. Maybe Guzman decided to be stronger and not even try to lose the weight?

    Guzman is a disgrace IMO, not making weight will almost certainly favour him.

    I say there's 300% more chance now that Guzman knocks Campbell out. I mean I never gave to much chance for that ending, but 3,5 pounds over the limit and without serious dehydration to somehow make 135 on the 2nd or 3rd try, he should be stronger than ever. I expect him to be 150+ in the fight.

    I bet on Nate but long ago, but considering that Nate had to bust his butt and make weight twice, whereas in all likelihood Guzman simply didn't even try, this debacle has to favor Guzman hugely.

    He is probably going to be feeling great - big and strong.

    Belts don't mean crap anymore. Yet, if Guzman wins, Nate has a highly legitimate built in excuse.

    It isn't a fair fight. If Nate wins than he overcame two disadvantages (making weight twice plus Guz not even attempting and hydrating back whilst he was boiling down). If Guzman wins, it is a hollow victory and won't mean very much. If he does win than they need to have a rematch where Guzman has to weigh in at 135 and Nate gets to weigh in at 138.5.

    No matter the result, Guzman pissed on all of us fight fans with this BS, whereas Nate is a hero for going forward with the fight.

    how can a fighter going up in weight class failed to make weight??? let me guess he doesnt want to dehydrate so he can come big and strong. He's smarter than i thought. too bad i think he's scared of nate.

    No way! I don't expect him to KO Campbell in his first fight in 135.

    One thing is sure... Becouse of Guzman´s overweight just about everyone wishes that he loses. I hope that too.
