    i don't know why pac should always fight the other guy. guzman-jmm as also a good fight too. though it would be less exciting, two top talents could be a joy to watch for non-casual boxing fans.

    Pac neither ducked Guzman nor lost to JMM.

    That aside, Guzman vs Campbell is a great fight.

    Guzman struggled against Barrios, and Campbell is a great test to see where he should rank. What sucks is that if Guzman wins, you can expect his fanboys to go ape****.

    Regardless, Campbell is in my eyes the man at LW and a win over him makes Guzman the man. He would deserve a shot at Pacquiao no doubt. But that doesn't mean that JMM with an impressive win over Casa would deserve a shot at Guzman. They would all be deserving of fighting each other. However at the end of the day, Pac calls the shots because of his popularity. It sucks, but thats the business of boxing.

    If Campbell wins against Guzman, then he solidifies his claim at the top LW in the world, which right now is only riding on 1 pretty close win over a good but not great opponent, and the fact that he has 3 out of 4 major belts.

    because JMM claims he deserves a shot a pac and guzman (fans) believes he deserves a shot against pac..

    it's simple.. if pac haters fight jmm, guzman will say " F_Ck pac he's avoiding me! if pac fights JMM, same case " F_ck pac he's avoiding me!
    He avoided me at 130lbs and he is avoiding me at 135lbs again.


    To end all the F_cking avoiding stuff between the two. They should slug it out on who gets a crack with pac.

    I watched it twice, he was in control all through the fight but barrios definetely had his moments in the fight. To me Diaz is not much worse than Barrios, maybe lacking in speed a bit (both are slow plodders) but he makes up for it by having a WW body. Put it this way, Pac dominated David in a much more impressive fashion than guz did Barrios.

    I would actually favor Guzman in this matchup even though I hate him. Guzman is like a mini Mayweather

    Still a pick em fight as far as I'm concerned because Nate runs hot and cold if he comes in hot he will give Guzman hell.

    exactly.Guzman was the clear winner of the fight and was never in trouble through out.

    I don't not think Guzman will be able to bang with Campbell and what he is going to bring, if he is on it, at 135.
