Whats with the Nate Cambell hype?

[raysan]

I know he beat Juan Diaz, but before the cut which Diaz let get to him, Cambell was being handled. Nate Cambell fought a good fight, but lets be real, Juan Diaz was dealing with a million distractions and was still dominating before he got cut. Now im reading that Casa is afraid of Cambell and such, when in all actuality Nate Cambell just happend to catch Juan Diaz at a perfect time, nothing more nothing less, and to make things worse now Nate Cambell thinks hes a star, showing up at fights dressed like a clown. Are yall really buying into the Cambell hype?

....don't think so

you dont need to "think so", its a fact.

Actually he was apart from some Promoting issues, it was his Studies and training. I picked Campbell to beat him based on this.

Not a big fan of Campbells, but respect the win over Diaz 36 years old etc... very big win to revive his career a little.

He did have a ton of distractions. He still won a fair decision, i dont know about a fair fight, the point he gained meant nothing since he was all messed up from the cut. Time will tell if Campbell can do anything with the loss.

[raysan]

oh im not taking anything away from Cambell either, hes shown a lot of determination to get where hes at and he fought the fight he said he was going to, so he definately gets props for that. My point was that Cambell isnt invincible and for some people to say that Joel is afraid of him is ridiculous, i mean what has Cambell done for Joel to be "afraid".

More with the Diaz excuses now..gimme a break.

Like Campbell had the advantage over Diaz because he had to do homework?!
And fighters get cut in the ring but most fight on like warriors, look at Vasquez in the 2nd fight with Marquez he got cut over both eyes and turned up the heat because it made him even more determined. Diaz has been in soft so he had never faced adversity and he didnt deal with it well. He will be back.

The primary distraction was that he was getting hit in the body. I don't know how Diaz was dominating the fight, it was a pretty evenly contested fight and then Campbell left Diaz in the dust. I said it all along and I'll repeat it again, I have no idea who Diaz beat that justified his hype. If he was a superfighter, a cut that was caused clearly by a glove would not have unraveled him. We saw Pacquiao and Marquez both sustain serious cuts and neither let the cut take them out of their game. That's world class stuff.
