I can't beleve this! This was to be Guzmans coming out party on the world stage! What were they doing in camp,eating ice cream? Mayweather has got to take some of the blame for the weight.Unless Guzman turns up with an "S" on his chest,Campbell should take the fight.

Mayweather is only the boxing coach. How is he responsible for Guzman not making weight? I didn't know a boxing coach meant being a baby sitter and involved constantly asking his fighter to jump on a scale.

Mayweather Sr. already blamed Guzman conditioning coach Buer. Pretty pissed ranting too, on another boxing site.

Because the trainer lays out a programme of exercises and speciali training, calculated to exercise the important body parts, and using up carefully calculated amounts of calories, to bring the fighters in at the aimed-for weight.
Look how many fighters come in right on the exact weight limit?? That shows good planning, as well as "knowing your fighter". Different fighters have different metabolisms and use up calories (weight) at different rates, so a good trainer knows exactly what exercises, combined with diet and even massage, are needed to bring his man in, fighting fit, right on the nose. He knows exactly how much lighter his man is in the morning than the night before, and after how many hours of sleep, and at what time in the morning, etc.etc.
A fighter who fights at, say, normally, 147 lbs and comes in at 147, or even anything from 146.5 up, would be regarded as overtrained if he came in at 144. You'd see the betting go heavily against him then.
I believe that the reason that the betting has gone even more against Campbell AFTER Guzman weighed in heavy, is because Guzman didn't bother to try to take it off, leaving him in a more natural, less squeezed-out condition, that Campbell. And naturally heavier.Comment

I'm not at all surprised, he walks around 170+ between fights. My pick of Campbell is looking much better by the second.Comment
