campbell will beat diaz???

[xcaret]

DUDE I JUST POSTED SOME INSIDE STUFF ABOUT JUAN AND BELIEVE ME NATE WILL LOSE

dont listen to him, hes just rooting for him cause he has talked to Campbell, after Diaz whoops him hes gonna come up with some ****** **** and say he knew Diaz was gonna win LOL...

Juan Diaz has a great defence, and people ignore that. The guy brawls a bit, yes, but he is incredibly hard to hit. I think he will make Campbell quit.

Exactly...Campbell is nothing more than an ESPN fringe-level contender, he always falls short in his big(gest) fights & this will be nothing different...

i hope not,

From what i seen, Campbell has a great right hand counter, it was seen in the Kid Diamond fight, when Diamond throws he stops he leaves himself open and campbell counters and lands. With Diaz how exactly can Campbell he be a counter puncher when Diaz dosent stop punching, you cannot coutner when your spending all your time blocking punches. Even if he does stop punching he covers himself up.

I agree, Campbell never seems to deliver in the big fights. The first loss to Peden looked like a fluke. The rematch, not so much.

I wouldn't call it a fluke at all Campbell was just a idiot. He ripped Peden to the body and had him out then he stopped to taunt him while Peden was leaning on his chest and then Peden being the professional he is was aware of this and threw a uppercut and took him out.

[Mr. Ryan]

everytime you try and play smart you make your self look even more ******... Diaz one-dimensional??? Why the **** are you comparing him with that ***ing wrestler??? God your such an idiot, your obviously on his nuts cause u actually talked to him in person, after Diaz whoops his ass u gonna change your opinions on him, thats just how you are, ******

Actually, I met Diaz also and he is a very nice guy.

BTW, it's "you're" in the context you're using. Get your GED and watch a pro boxing fight before you try to approach me. I know you tell people that you know me. I don't sign autographs for putitas like yourself.

campbell is a rough and tough guy and i think he will stop juan in this bout...it,s going to take more than some pity pat punches to stop campbell... and campbell can punch so lets see how diaz will react to that power that campbell brings... any comments are welcome...

C'mon, seriously? Really? Essentially we're talking about a fringe contender ESPN fighter vs. the Kingpin, yeah I said it, Kingpin, of the Lightweight division. That's like saying Gatti had a puncher's chance against Mayweather. Diaz TKO Round 9.

[ReadyUp]

These are the points that lead me towards a Campbell win.

1. Campbell has been a completely different fighter at 135. He was killing himself at 130 and it hurt his confidence. He has beaten some good opposition at 135 and in vicious form.

2. Campbell is a devastating body puncher and Diaz is soft around the midsection.

3. Campbell is the biggest puncher with one shot at that division.

4. Diaz is in the middle of a big promotional battle with Don King which has garnered more media attention than his fight with Campbell.

5. Diaz's last two opponents have given him very soft opposition. Freitas was coming out of retirement and Diaz was semi-retired having won his title when Jesus Chavez broke his leg.

6. Diaz is a one-dimensional fighter. Look at Hatton when he was forced to do something else, once the punches stopped coming he folded completely.

7. Diaz has excelled with fighters that lack footspeed (Sim, Suico, Angulo, Diaz). They had to fight Diaz's fight. Campbell is a slick boxer-puncher who can take a guy apart body and head and move enough for Diaz to have to reset.

8. Campbell is young for his age. He has only been a pro for 8 years, one longer than Diaz. Campbell turned pro at 28 and came up against tougher opposition.

9. Diaz has been taking a lot of punishment in recent years and is starting to recess. Against Diaz, his face was marked up and was barely hit. That's the sign of a guy who has been in too many tough fights too soon.

10. Diaz only swims to condition himself. In a push and shove fight on the inside with body punches being traded, your legs won't hold up as much as a guy's who does regular roadwork.

I like Nate, he's a really cool dude and was down to earth when we spoke. But that aside, Diaz is a level above. And his track record proves it. I don't believe Nate would have beaten Julio Diaz and maybe not even Acelino, let alone both back-to-back and in convincing fashion.

I'm rooting for Juan because I want to see a Diaz/Pacquiao showdown but if Nate does pull off the upset then good for him.

BTW, in no way is Julio Diaz one-dimensional.

Since he would never do something that ****** again, I consider it a fluke. But like I said, Peden stopped him in the rematch, and to me that shows that Campbell simply isn't a championship level fighter. Some people will say it was because he was in the wrong weight class, but losing to Issac Hlatshwayo dismisses that theory.
