I'm the first to admit that I've been wrong before (Hopkins-Tarver, Barrera-Morales III) but when I see styles that are just bad for a guy, I can see what's in front of me. As far as Diaz, his team better match him right because a second bad fight in a row is the last thing he needs. Give him Graham Earl, that's a good confidence builder.You did a good job of picking this fight Asian, I thought you were crazy picking Campbell. You were right he was determined and gave Diaz problems that he hadn't seen before. As far as saying he's done, I think it may be a little to early to say that. We'll have to wait and see once he gets in there with another elite fighter.Comment

This is boxing.
Anyone can win.
I think everyone knows that by now. Cambell fought good IMO. I had a feeling he was gonna get robbed, also that announcer sucks.. Please ban him.Comment

Campbell is good at rolling punches in close and then coming back with that right hand counter punch. He's old school in that respect. His first trainer fought Archie Moore 4 times, so that's where Campbell's schooling comes from.
Diaz was effective when he just swarmed him, but a lot of the punches looked flashier than they really were.Comment

I mean I saw him winning the fight but I saw him going toe to toe and getting hit flush and even his head snapped back a couple of times in the early going, but If you saw him roll every single punch that's what you saw. When a clip of the fight is on youtube or on hbo on demand I'll rewatch it just in case, but I remember what I saw. I thought campbell clearly won the fight and even won the early rounds, but I thought he got hit too and wasn't very slick, I'll rewatch it to see if I'm wrong.Comment

I agree with that, and plus Diaz has very limited power, but before Diaz gassed physically and emotionally I saw him landing some flush shots, even though I thought Nate's were better. I guess I just want to point out I don't think Campbell was too slick, but I don't think that was his gameplan either.Campbell is good at rolling punches in close and then coming back with that right hand counter punch.

If you noticed, Campbell wasn't just standing in their square, he was moving slightly to the side, dipping, rolling, he's a very skilled in-fighter. Not like Mayweather's style, but the same theory. Maybe even a little like Toney, only not as flashy. Diaz landed clean at times, but Campbell was able to turn a lot of the shots so that they looked like they landed clean but Campbell took a lot of the steam off them by rolling with them.I agree with that, and plus Diaz has very limited power, but before Diaz gassed physically and emotionally I saw him landing some flush shots, even though I thought Nate's were better.
