I am glad to know both guys have prepared and think they can win.

Hopefully their training has been better than ever

Guzman: I moved up to 135 pounds because my previous fight I was supposed to have in May against Alex Arthur fell through at 130 pounds. The WBO gave me the option to vacate the 130‑pound belt and become the No. 1 contender at 135 at WBO. That was a chance I couldn't really pass up, despite the three world championships and be the number one rated WBO at 135. It made sense for me and my team to move up in weight and fight Nate Campbell.
I knew thats what happened!!!! Frank Warren sneaky bastard, that's how he was able to keep Arthur champion.
Anyways, just wanted to point that out.
WAR GUZMAN!!!Comment

I give Nate top respect but I think Guzman might be little to much for him and has pound for pound talent.I like Joan by U 12 in this fight. Bradley should be a big fav. but I have a friend close to the Cherry camp who thinks Edner is gonna pull the big upset and has been looking real sharp in the gym.This one could possibly steal the show...Bradley S12Comment

Edner Cherry has good promoters. Who else loses to Quiles, Santa Cruz and Malinaggi and then gets a championship fight after beating up washed up Stevie Johnston.
Whatever he's paying his managers, they deserve double.Comment

Warren has kidnapped that belt at 130 now. That will either belong to Alex Arthur/Nicky Cooke or Kevin Mitchell for the forseeable future.Guzman: I moved up to 135 pounds because my previous fight I was supposed to have in May against Alex Arthur fell through at 130 pounds.
