What people forget is that Campbell fought Casamayor, and Joel was never a big 135 pounder. And Casamayor was probably his PHYSICAL best/strongest at 130. Though, he's fought A LOT at 135. And Joel had virtually no problem with him. Why anyone would think that the faster, and more PRIMED athlete would have a problem with Nate, who's had 4 losses SINCE the Casa fight, is beyond me.
Campbell is going to walk through Guzman.

I actually think 135 is Campbell's best weight. Towards the end of his run at 130 Campbell had stamina issues, particularly in the Francisco Lorenzo fight where he went to extremes to make the limit. He's not a guy who walks around big though, maybe 150 is as big as he gets.What people forget is that Campbell fought Casamayor, and Joel was never a big 135 pounder.

Guzman walks around a lot heavier.Comment

I think I might have misworded that. I mean that Casamayor's best weight was 130. Campbells was/is probably 135.I actually think 135 is Campbell's best weight.

I agree. Guzman moved up the weights very quickly, now he finds himself in with one of the most dedicated champions in the business. Nates style is all wrong for him anyway I feel. Guzman is frequently lazy - he takes rounds off, rests, coasts, looks busy doing nothing - yes, in between he can be a firecracker reeling off combinations and looping heavy punches, but in those moments when he's in third gear Campbell can get on him and punish him.Comment
