    Who's gonna win this fight? Funeka supposedly is a big puncher, he starched Zahir Raheem.. I hope he does the same to Campbell.

    Funeka is a fucking giant who keeps a tight guard and throws pretty short, compact shots. Campbell can get very wide at times and might leave some dangerous openings.

    Should be a really interesting fight.

    I only saw the KO round, so I can't judge Funeka properly. I do think he has good movement which is what allowed him to cut of the ring and pound/pressure Raheem onto queer street.

    Campbell is a good fighter, but has zero marketability, and may be strapped for cash about now.

    I also have only seen the KO round vs. Raheem, so I can't judge the chap properly, but he appears to be a good hitter.

    After Seeing that Footage, REED AGREES...That's Got to B THE BIGGEST Lightweight REED has EVER Seen...Zahir Raheeem ISN'T a "Small" Lightweight by Any Means & that Cat Absolutely DWARFED him...WOW!!!...

    Yeah, this is Gonna B a VERY Interesting Fight...Nate LIKES the Pocket, which Might B THE WRONG Place to B w/this Motherfucker...

    Yep. I can definitely see Nate getting laid out in this fight. His chin is hardly great. And if it happens, it'll be hilarious. Campbell talks too much shit for a guy who's not an elite fighter.

    that guy is huge, and he absolutely mopped the floor with a good fighter in Zahir Raheem.

    When is this fight?

    Feb 14th. Its the undercard fight to Angulo-Mayorga. But in reality, Funeka-Campbell seems like a more even, and intruiging matchup. Angulo-Mayorga is a mismatch. Still, thats gonna be one helluva B.A.D card! Both fights promise to be exciting.

    Judging from the Raheem fight he has fast hands, and lots of power. And Nate is hardly a defensive genius. So to say Funeka has nothing for Nate is silly.

    Yeah but judging from the Raheem fight Funeka is a basic fighter with good fundamentals, hard shots and a tight defence. Not that fast but showed good timing. What we dont know about Funeka is if he could take it as good as he gives it. Nate will bring it like he always does and test this mans heart and will. I think this guys is a novice and Nate will box when he has to and fight when he has to. It should be easy work.

    A notice doesnt destroy Raheem. Raheem might be a boring fucker, but he's a good fighter. Hell Raheem would be problematic for Campbell.

    Nate has to be favored, simply because he's more proven, but just based on the Raheem fight alone Funeka is a VERY live underdog. Nate Campbell is not a great fighter, despite what HE would have you believe. If Funeka can time Raheem, he can do the same to Campbell.

    I think one of them is gonna get KO'd, and wouldnt be at all surprised if it was Nate.

    yeah, people who file for bankruptcy are usually a bit hard up for cash :lol:

    I like the way Funeka put together his punches in that fight. That and the fact that he looked like he was a foot taller than Raheem (who himself is only an inch or two shorter than Nate). If there's a drawback to his style (at least judging from that fight, as I've never seen him prior to), it might be that he's patient to a fault. Nate's a different animal than Zahir, and on his best night can possibly outwork this cat.

    But, I don't know... Nate looks like he has a fight on his hands. Doesn't help his chances any that he'll be going in following an 11-month layoff.

    But if the real Nate Campbell was going to show up for Guzman, does it mean the Diaz version is going to show up against Funeka?
