    if that's the case, Diaz vs Katsidis can still happen.

      To claim Campbell took drugs to boost his performance due to the lack of testing, you'd have to imply that Diaz did exactly the same thing because he was operating under the same rules. I don't think it happened in either case.

      Secondly, some are calling Campbell a "dirty fighter" while overlooking the fact that Diaz continuously leads with his head. In most, if not all, rounds Diaz led with his head forcing Campbell to evade but the fewer times Campbell did it, he just connected more effectively. If Campbell is a dirty fighter, then again you'd have to imply that Diaz is a dirty fighter (if not dirtier because of his continual head charging).

        Second the match itself campbell was a dirty fighter the fight shoulda been stopped after that headbutt/illegal punch and go to the scorecards but thx to the don king ref and meds juan was told to go and fight with an akward swollen eye and a huge gazh on his eyebrown
        Campbell lost a point in the sixth for what the referee assumed was a headbutt but what was actually a legal punch. Diaz didn't have a plan B to deal with he cut and stopped throwing punches. From the sixth on the fight was simply one sided. Campbell's corner had an inexperienced cutman who didn't know what to do which didn't help matters but ultimately the fight consisted of a four rounds to two first half in favour of Diaz then Diaz didn't win a round from the sixth through the twelfth. You talk about King but if anyone got the favour of crooked officiating it was Juan, with a bogus point decision and a baffling nod on one of the judge's cards/
