NEWS FLASH
Though we have Ryan, who knows Nate, apparently confirming the story for us, I'd appreciate if I could find something out there in the news that would confirm this, aside from a brief on another site without either a byline or a source.
I just want to say that ive known Nate for many years now, and he truly is a Great guy. He would do anything for a friend. On top of that he is very intelligent and well grounded.
I don't believe these charges are true and im sure they have been blown out of proportion. Unfortunately for Nate he is a successful boxer and that makes him a target. What the average man or woman may get a warning for, he is more like to be paraded around in handcuffs.
Hopefully this will get resolved quickly.
It always seems that this old statement is true "Behind the downfall of every great man was a woman"
The true statement is, "Behind the downfall of every great man is a dumb ass man".
It's a very complicated situation with his girlfriend, they've had a stormy relationship to say the least. I don't believe Nate to be the type to harm anyone, let alone a woman. Nate is a gentleman.
I really don't think Nate will do any time here.
Well, there's a reason they're called EX. It means to EXit! I hope he gets back on track and leave those ho's alone.
Why doesn't he deserve to be in jail???
Are the accusations untrue?
I am not arguing for Nate Campbell to be release just to the bold. If America really was to go by "innocent until proven guilty" in a lot of cases people wouldn't have to sit in jail until their trial is over and they were found guilty. Accusations most of the time is he said she said type of shit. In a lot of cases people shouldn't have to sit in jail because of shit like that considering all they could lose while sitting there. Also considering the fact everything that some people do lose is not returned to them when they are found not guilty. All I am saying is in most cases accusations shouldn't be the only thing that keeps a person locked up until they are found guilty or not guilty.

I'm very depressed about the situation. I consider Nate to be a good friend of mine. I spoke with him not long before the 27th and wondered why I hadn't heard back from him.
I spoke with court officials regarding making it to his court appearance tommorrow and they said it'd be of no use since Nate will be appearing via video in his arraignment. I hope everything works out for him because he doesn't deserve to be in jail.
what moves do you reckon nate was going to make? :thinking:
Sounds like a boxer on the come up to me.
"Campbell was originally scheduled to face Humberto Toledo (31-4) in a "stay busy" fight, with his sights set on facing the Diaz-Diaz winner in February or March of next year. "
