    Winner should be top 10 P4P. Guzman by boring close UD. Campbell has problems against quick fighters, and Guzman won't allow himself to be manhandled.

    I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS ONE! Why? Well....just b/c Joan is a bit over hyped. He's definitley good. No question. He's a soild technical fighter with some talent. He's pretty fast and with good defense, but he's not a kind of fighter who has the mentality that will beat the elite. Tools and skills aside he doesn't have the "X" factor that guys like JMM, PAC, MAB and EM all possessed.

    Nate will KO this guy. It will be about 4 rounds until we see Nate begin to break Joan down with the jab and consistant body work. I think its a head shot that ends the night...possibly a clean up left hook, but it will be b/c of all the body shots that Joan is lathargic by Round 8 and ends up asleep by a nice hook from Nate.

    Nate is a very solid boxer as well. He has the mentality to be a champion but he has holes defensivley that can be exposed by better technical boxers which was my main concern with Joan, however I don't believe Joan has the will or power to keep Nate off him which will be the deciding factor in the outcome of this fight.

    KO 8 or 9 for Nate! Neither are P4P, who has Joan Beat and who has Nate beat to be on the list?

    It's a disapointing fight. This was the deciding factor for me on why I don't believe in Joan Guzman's hype. He's soild and crafty. A good fighter, nothing more, nothing less.

    :good Agreed on both.....but I can see two KO's for Campbell and JMM....moreso for Nate, but both men win without much problems.

    Not sure...but I know Joan blew up by fight night. He won that fight but he won by outpointing Soto. He didn't try to hurt him, he didn't take any chances and won by using his speed, legs and flash. But there was nothing exciting at all. Soto really tried to no avial.

    I think the fact that Soto coudnt lay a hand on him had something to do with it.

    Hard to hurt someone whose dipping and at more than a few points, running from you.

    Good point. but at the same time, it helps a lot if you are far heavier than your foe when you are supposedly equal in weight.

    That is why this Little Tyson monicker must be now officially removed.

    It has not been justified since he went up from 122.:yep
