[FONT=ARIAL,SAN-SERIF]BILOXI, Miss.—Biloxi boxing fans rejoiced at the news that Hurricane Ike’s dangerous “cone of uncertainty†no longer included their city, paving the way for Don King Productions world championship boxing card presentation at the Beau Rivage Theatre on Saturday. Two world championships will be featured including International Boxing Federation, World Boxing Association and World Boxing Organization lightweight champion Nate “Galaxxy Warrior†Campbell (39-5-1, 25 KOs) defending his crowns against undefeated former two-time WBO champion Joan “Sycuan Warrior†Guzman (28-0, 17 KOs) and World Boxing Council super lightweight champion Timothy “Desert Storm†Bradley (22-0, 11 KOs) will make his first title defense against WBC No. 6-ranked Edner “Cherry Bomb†Cherry. Both of the world championships will also be televised on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT/9 p.m. PT (delayed on the West Coast) on SHOWTIME. http://fightbeat.com/news_details.php?NW=21825 [/FONT]
He won't, Guzman's style will be a nightmare for him. I don't think Campbhell is even better than a guy like Humberto Soto.
I don't think he will either. Thats why i said i would call him FOTY winning 2 fights that i expected him to lose in. Guzman is the most talented active fighter in the sport right now and hopefully after Saturday the big named fighters will fight him.
I don't even watch boxing, according to Joony, and I still picked Nate to beat Juan Diaz. It was a bad match-up and he's beat him 9 out of 10 times. Cupey
Well Soto did beat the man who upset Campbell (kindof ::) but I think Campbell is the better fighter when his heads in it. If you think Campbell will be short with his right hands like Soto was and if you think Guzman will be able to do the "Mayweather" on the ropes against Campbell like he did against Soto your sadely mistaken. Guzman is slick but he is a one handed fighter with leaky defense and overated power. Campbells going to eat him up.
Nate posts on a couple other forums I frequent, and he just rubs me the wrong way. He constantly talks about how he wants the best for the sport, but at the same time he defends the ABC belts and Don King. I hope Guzman whups his ass.
stinker or not he easly beat Soto who is another overrated Top Rank propaganda. Not to long Soto was the dark horse at 130 :atu: Now he is supposed to be a contender at 135 based on nothing. :atu: This guy was born to be overrated. ::
The fight was very close. I was actually ringside for the fight and most had it for Guzman. BUT IT WAS VERY VERY CLOSE Cupey
It was close, but damn even Bob Arum admitted Guzman won the fight, just that he disagreed with the wide margin of victory. I like both fighters, I'm friendly with both fighters and hate that they're fighting each other. But I believe Guzman has a few too many weapons for Nate, and will find a way to take a decision.
