Yea he did the right thing by dumping that trash belt. At this stage of his career, he can't waste anymore time fighting mandatories like Paulo moses or whatever his name is. I have a funny feeling about this Funeka fight though. It's a dangerous fight.
Smart move by Campbell, these ridiculous mandatories and interm title junk is holding unification back. Campbell's plan is to fight Funeka, Barrera then the winner of JMM/Diaz. Sounds to me Campbell has the best plan to make FOTY 2009 if he were to win all those fights.
Its a winnable fight for Barrera, but Campbell is a fighter on a mission Ill pick him by close decision. He could very well be the Bernard Hopkins of the lightweight division, he started his career late so in terms of his boxing age, hes still young :thumbsup.
i wonder if this means guzman vs the former junior lightweight wba belt holder.... valero? bad fight for edwin if that be the case.
