I'm glad to hear he at least tried to make weight on his second attempt. At least that's what they're reporting. But the fact is he still didn't make it the first time and deserves to lose a lot of respect. You don't get pity points for going to the hospital and canceling the fight. He still didn't make weight and I still don't respect the guy, but I'm glad to know he won't be dying in the ring tonight if he indeed tried to make weight. Who really knows
for a guy to be overweight on the biggest fight of his career is just plain pathetic...Campbell was going to take the fight anyway and guzman still refused more muscle or not he refused to fight, plain and simple
Little do people know how much muscle Guzman build and how he overdid it. The same people who called him feather fisted are talking shit NOW...him being able to lose the 3.5 was due to the muscle he gained. Guzman's objective seemed to have been to hurt Nate and not outbox. Cut him a break
Your bias here is POST-RATIONAL. I am part dominican myself but I know BULLSHIT when I see it. Guzman has had over 25 fights, he should fucking know this is a job and he FAILED it. As a pro this could set him back FAR MORE than a loss would.
I hope Tye Fields type of hype ends here for guzman.
We all know hes talented. we all know he's this and that but he doesnt have the certificate to prove it. like fuego said he has 0 Big fight. the fight with sotto counts for something but Barrios recently got fucked by the now 'gatekeeper' Juarez.
Big Disapointment really i think he has the chance to land Marquez or Pac later if he got the belts from nate.
just imagine its your first fight in a higher division and you didnt make weight? at least Castillo's been fighting at lightweight before corrales 3.
Wtf
No one is going to want to see this man in the ring again after this. Seriously. You can't pull this kind of shit when you're already a negative fighter that people don't consider exciting. He's had zero big fights, and now he'll probably never get one.
You can stand there and stick up for your countryman all day, but I'm just telling you the truth. This is a very, very debilitating blow to his career.
Have you noticed Showtime basically calling him a coward for not wanting to fight? I'm not saying he's a coward. I'm saying he's a moron, a clown, and a joke for not being able to make weight. Now we'll probably never find out how good this guy could have been.
I agree with this guy...wow all the hype for nothing..I was so ready for this fight...wat a dissappointment..
:sad2:
very very disappointing... guzman is bumped to the back of the line, i think he wont get another shot for a couple years... he should've took a tune up before calling out campbell... maybe guzman should move up to 140 lbs.
I don't think he can win at 140, but then again Malignaggi is like the #2 guy there, so it's possible

Not making weight is a pretty disgraceful thing to do. No excuses for mine. As someone else mentioned, Campbell prepared for this fight and for Guzman to do this is a poor effort no doubt.
Guzman can go fuck himself, I hope he can only get on espn or worse. If Showtime or Hbo sign contracts with this little prick ever again, then they should feel ashamed.
Showtime won't, and I doubt HBO would pay to have him fight anyone other than Pacquiao or Marquez. No way either of them will waste their time with this guy. He's royally screwed and probably doesn't even realize it yet.

guzrun is a shit...
this fight may prove him better fighter..
hes an asshole.

he Doesn't Get Shit From Me. If I Was A Guy In The 135,140 Or 147 Weight Classes I Would Think Twice When Dealing With Guzman. campbell Just Wasted Months On This Clown.
Exactly!!!
