    I know you did not just say the guzman/soto fight was close. It was not even remotly competitive. guzman made soto look foolish in there, and I think when soto has some success in his upcoming bouts people will start to realize the talent in guzman. After he beats nate I dont think hell get the recognition he deserves. I can just see it now - nate old, juan was never that good, etc... (and to be honest it is somewhat true)

    first of all Soto and Nate are completley different fighters. So are Castillo and Nate lol.. Quite honestly it would surprise me if Guzman gets knocked out.. hes tough.. and when was he wobbled against Soto?.. :huh no way is Guzman getting knocked out. And if he does Nate Campbell will definitley impress me but hes older now.. What kind of counter punch does Nate have besides a counter right that Guzman will definitley see coming lol?.. aint no way Nate is winning

    Well he did use a Castilo tactic against Diaz in which he head butted Diaz and caused a cut then he targeted that all night long. Ok wobbled was a bit much but he was hurt with a left hook by Soto and decided to box rather than slug. I think Nate will study that Castillo/Mayweather fight to beat him.

    your right Guzman has definitley adopted the shoulder roll defensive style from his new trainer Floyd Sr. but just because he shares part of the same style as Mayweather doesnt make them the same fighter either. I am just about certain that Nate would not look at Castillo Mayweather because Campbell is not Castillo in fact his in ring style is almost nothing like his lol.

    Guzman is a lil more versatile than Campbell and that should be the difference in a close fight... :good
    Guzman seems like the kind of fighter who if he has to will fight hes a tough man

    Agreed.

    Soto is another underrated fighter. I had Guzman winning that fight clearly.
