It sounds to me that he added too much muscle. ESPN article shortly before the fight quoted guzman saying he was doing strength training and lifting weights for the first time in his career. He was trying to become a bigger puncher for this fight. It sounds too me he added a bit too much muscle and underestimated how difficult it would be to shed the weight prior to the fight. Doesn't sound like he was fat/out of shape, just too big.

Guzman trained to do to Nate what he did to fighters at 122 and 126. Everyone who is mad at him are the same people who called him feather fisted. I mean give him a break...his intentions were to put a hurting on Nate, too bad he overdid and becuz of it alot of people lost ALOT of respect for him. I'm very disappointed in him but I ain't mad enough to wana put him on a torture stick.It sounds to me that he added too much muscle.

Yep, I'm disappointed too but ****, it happens. I didn't stop loving Chico Corrales for not making weight and apparently no one else did cuz I see his picture all the time in peoples sigs. Or Castillo (although it got ridiculous for him).Guzman trained to do to Nate what he did to fighters at 122 and 126. Everyone who is mad at him are the same people who called him feather fisted.

Laugh all you want. By the time King and I get through availing ourselves of each and every legal remedy, this clown will be fighting on club shows in the DR just to pay us the interest. And if he ever manages to get a decent fight again, he wont see 30 cents of the purse. Pretty funny, huh?? lol

he does deserve punishment though.. you can't just back out of a fight like that last minute and not expect reprocautions.
as if it wasn't already hard for Guzman to get a fight, now it's gonna be even harder!Comment
I'm glad he is only gonna get fined 500 dollars.. though I'm angry and disappointed at Guzman, hella people have been **** talking him and hating on him since this happened.
